Royce White around the USA in 160 days
Aside from beardsanity, Royce White's anxiety driven USA bus tour is the most intriguing story of the team. This shall be the official Royce White bus tour tracking track.
Tonight's B2B game from Atlanta to Houston presented the first challenge to Royce White's trip. A quick look at google map shows that the distance between Atlanta and Houston is approximately 800 miles and takes about 12 hours 50 minutes to travel by conventional means on the road. In other words its impossible to travel by bus unless the dam thing is outfitted with a turbo and Jeff Gordon is White's designated driver.
Did White take the plane? Is he in Houston? Or is he sitting this one out? *snickers*u know because white sits on the bench... sitting out.... nvm

On a side note, i know that Royce White has really really nice courtside seat but if i have to travel thousands of miles every week to watch an NBA game for 5 months, it would get old really quick.

I'm sure he will love the D-League bus trips with the Vipers.

I still have faith... Royce will be vital when the doubles start showing on Harden late in game.

Re: Royce White around the USA in 160 days
They might have a shoot around/practice this morning too. That would mean the bus would have had to start moving immediately after the team gets out of the locker room just to make it into Houston on time. Then he would have had to go straight to practice.
Well, damned if you do, damned if you don't. I hope he gets his anxiety thing under control.

Well that opening sequence looked like all but the final nail in Royce White's NBA career.

You know where they introduced all the new players and Machado was dressed instead of him?

The excuse last night was "migranes." That's code for the the bus broke down between Atlanta and Houston.

Re: Royce White around the USA in 160 days
It is kinda snarky to hint that Royce White _is_ a headache with his supposed injury. But in a way, I also appreciate it. I hope it sends the right message.
From his twitter:
Royce White @Highway_30
I just want to say something so bad... I'll wait! #SelfControl but it will come out at some point. Its not in me to be fake
3 Nov Royce White @Highway_30
#CyclONEnation HELMET to HELMET... Man football is hard to watch because there's so much time between snaps to see blatant mistakes on RP's
3 Nov Royce White @Highway_30
#CyclONEnation Getting a first hand look at how bad calls impact the game! offensive pass interference. #COMEON
He seemed to be watching football and twittering just fine up till the game started.

Re: Royce White around the USA in 160 days
So did White fly or ride the magic school bus to Houston? Was he inactive due to "migrane" or traffic?
I demand answers.

Re: Royce White around the USA in 160 days
Fsck if I know.
What I do know is that I am starting to feel pretty bad for being excited for him, and since Mchale was _the_ guy pushing to draft him, he might be kicking himself too.
*(According to a phone call between White and his agent, see Grantland special with Royce towards the end at the draft party)
Regardless, D-league starts at the end of the month.

I am disappointed by White... at least he made some money now, he will probably play a season or two in the D-league and end up somewhere in a small league in Europe where he can ride the bus whereever he wants.

I don't have any expectations for him even if he gets his anxiety under control without burning his bridges with the Rockets.
Morey 2020.
