Royce White featured on next week's HBO Real Sports

[Cycl1]

The thing that bugs me is that he's obviously still cashing the rockets' checks. If he wants to pull this crap he shouldn't keep giving them the power of writing his paychecks. You can't have it both ways Royce

He is suspended. Is he even getting paid?

By the time he pays his union dues and fines, he potentially could lose money.

Don't think he's been paid at all yet. Suspended, not getting paid, plus the fines from not showing up to practice.

Did anybody watch the show?

[CapnCy]

I don't know how this all pans out money wise, but I suppose there is a real possibility he could end up OWING money (meaning, getting little or nothing from Rockets and probably got an advance from his agent).

[CYEATHAWK]

Good to see his anxiety didn't get in the way of shaving his beard.

Or being on camera in front of millions of people.

I wish this guy would just stop, I cant stand him on twitter. For a guy that has never played in the NBA he sure thinks something is owed to him.

Prediction: It may not work out with the Rockets, but at some point in the future RW will be playing in the NBA (could be 1 year, could be 5 years) and if he is representing well, everyone will fall in love with him again.

I think the upcoming talent will simply pass him by.
I could be wrong, but I think that pro sports tend to be a "now" opportunity. If you don't seize it when it's there, it goes right on to someone else.

Could be. I just see alot disowning him right now and those same folks will probably reclaim him if he reappears on a NBA floor 5 years from now.

That'll definitely happen.
I prefer your version. I'd like to see the happy ending.

No way. It's possible he could play again, but I think he's a huge dog to ever see significant time again.

Having me get excited about him isn't going to happen.

Thanks to isuno1fan I now know that Chrome allows you to zoom up to 500%... Now, let's see if I can get back to work.

If he starts playing in the NBA in 5 years, I'll be predicting another meltdown by year 7.

What GM is going to take a chance with him? If he cant get over this fear of flying now, will he ever?

[MartyFine]

I'm not sure why the HBO people did not speak with a mental health professional?
