[rizkid92]

Theoretic is the Brock Lesnar of the board. Dude is a star overnight.

Only positive that the Rockets walk away from this deal with is freed up cap space to sign Dwight.

No no no, the fact they freed themselves of ever having to deal with Royce white again is priceless

That goes without saying

Royce probably has the most outrageous xanax prescription of all time.

[richboy]

How is Royce White even getting paid.

[LKTD]

Nothing matches HEAT's steroid prescriptions.

did rockets give up a pick? or what did they get in exchange? this one is a head scratcher.

The Rockets gave up draft rights to Furkan Aldemir, who they were hoping to bring over this year, and cash to pay Royce White's salary.

The Rockets get "future consideration" in return. Basically a pick that will never materialize. Like say a Top-59 protected 2nd rounder or something. So if the Sixers don't land in the 60th out of 60 picks spot, the pick obligation expires and the Rockets get zilch.

Basically, the Rockets gave up value (Furkan Aldemir, cash) to dump Royce White in return for getting nothing ("future considerations" pick so heavily protected that it will never materialize).

Only positive that the Rockets walk away from this deal with is freed up cap space to sign Dwight.

Only negative that the Sixers walk away with is a possible frivolous lawsuit from Royce White when the contract ends and he needs to make a quick buck.

Royce has been a nightmare, didn't the rockets give up buddinger for this clown?

So cold, so wrong, so hilarious. You know Morey's been waiting to bust that out for months.

Good work, Morey!

It's almost as good as Theoretic's.

[Sc0pe92]

You can trade players that dont want to play?

Morey got the last laugh there...

Not really. He still wasted a draft pick on him.

[symbiotic]

I said that Morey wasn't not the greatest GM only because he drafted Royce White. After his tweet, I stand corrected

[SuperCoolMayo]

That's a long ass drive.

Legendary 153 and-1's

[Got em Coach]

it boggles my mind how a player who refuses to show up to work is still allowed to get paid. how aren't there legal ramifications for void his contract. ridiculous
