Royce White @Highway_30 Again the @HoustonRockets management has gone against what THEIR OWN docs have declared & their own words. #Illogical pic.twitter.com/59ABOu1J
Suspension only for 1 week, but I suppose it's the first step needed in order to void his contract and buys the league time.

BTW, you think lawyers had hand in Morey statement citing White "refusing to provide services as required by his uniform player contract?"
David Weiner @BimaThug Jonathan_Feigen Rockets are clearly building/do enting best possible case/defense for voiding contract, defending possible ADA claim.

What's suspending me suppose to do �� I've been away from the team for a month 1/2. Guess we want to give it a le to shift accountability.
Royce White @Highway_30
Threat, Fines, Suspension won't deter me. I won't accept illogical health decisions, I will keep asking for safety & health. #BeWell @dmorey

Asked about White last night, McHale said, "I have no idea." He didn't. Morey has dealt w situation alone to keep it from being distraction.

When McHale was asked about White in Minneapolis, White's hometown, he needed a moment to know who they were asking about. Out of sight...

Not refusing #DLeague I'm refusing to work, AT ALL, until a protocol is put in that ensures #safety.. Doctors should make medical decisions.

The wording of this quote from Daryl Morey is very interesting. Normally, you see a player being suspended for "conduct detrimental to the team," but here the Rockets are suspending him specifically for refusing to provide services. That's also known as refusing to accept a D-League assignment.
Houston is making sure not to bring his accusatory tweets and statements into the suspension matter here. And while they hope to come to a resolution with White on this, it's looking less and less likely he'll play for the Houston Rockets. What's surprising to me is White's tweets about Houston imply an archaic mindset from the organization that goes back to before the American with Disabilities Act existed.
In 1990, the ADA was enacted by Congress to help protect the rights of those who suffer from disabilities. White often cites the ADA when tweeting, insinuating that the Rockets don't seem interested in following this law. The problem with his vague accusations is he never actually really says what has happened. That's his right to keep it secretive if he wants, but someone in the situation coming out and detailing exactly what has gone wrong with their communication and understanding of the situation would probably help the public perception of this entire ordeal.
The Rockets, understandably, want to keep this as quiet as possible. They have to announce things like suspensions of a player, but they're not going to get into a PR war with a 21-year old who believes he's fighting a cause for thousands of people right now. Unfortunately for White and his own hubris, he seems to believe there is only one compromise available and that's to comply with exactly what he wants in the situation. There is no give and take; there is only take.
This got makes RonRon looks like a stable individual

Undeniably UNSAFE 4 ANY PLAYER, when management has exec. authority in medical situations. Conflict of Interest, Health vs. Business #BeWell
I legitimately hate the guy. At this point the Rockets might as well have drafted one of us, at least we woulda showed up![]()
, if they drafted me but I had to be waterboarded every game, I'd in do it.
Exactly. Busing to away games just isn't reasonable. I also realize how crippling an irrational fear is, that's why they need to put him on medication or something.
The Rockets have suspended Royce White for "refusing to provide services required by his contract".
I'm confused in his...irrational thinking. Does he really think he can win any time of case if this goes to a lawsuit??
It's pretty funny how this clown whines about stigmas, when in reality, he contributes to the anxiety disorder stigma with his made behavior, tbh....
Dude's just trying to use his disorder to get playing time, imho....
If White were really concerned about his health, he should've deal with it before signing his contract. I'm sure the Rockets would have been willing to give him whatever help he needed if he didn't act like he was en iled to get paid while missing games.
What a petulant twit, I think Morey should have authorized the B.A. Baracus procedure.
guys hes a nutcase, you can't use logic to explain his behaviour, he's prime gulag material though, IMO TBH
Wasted draft pick but who cares with the way the Rockets have been playing of late. Cut his ass, free up a roster spot and sign someone who will contribute. Royce will not get paid. The Rockets have laid the case for breach of contract.
i really hope this got dies in a bus crash tbh he is wiping his ass with a once in a lifetime opportunity that any one of us would give our left testicle for
Seems like an interesting young man, I wouldn't mind sharing a cup of tea with.
Update on this guy...OMG!
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1...s-want-me-gone
"If I was to make an educated guess, I would guess that Adam Silver and David Stern and the Rockets organization, some other owners in the league, GMs, want me gone. And why do they want me gone? Because business is about convenience, not about doing what's necessary. It's about cutting overhead... And a lot of times, what's best for us as human beings doesn't meet that criteria for business people."
"I’m successful!"

If anybody wnats to read some ed up ...boy has got some baby mamma problems
I’ve been dealing with Royce White for a minute and he’s a joke!!! He wants everyone in the league to have sympathy for him for his “anxiety” but the only anxiety he has is not knowing how to pull out. The first time we had sex he NEVER even strapped up and this was our first time sleeping together.
Not my thing to do or anything, but he’s weird and likes to ask girls to eat his ass. I looked at him like he was craaaaazy. Well fast forward to now and I am 5 weeks pregnant with his child.
When I told him I was pregnant, he made it seem like I hopped on top of myself and got pregnant and then said he didn’t want me to have it bc of his other kids. He already has 2 other children by two different women, one is 2 and the other is 2 1/2. Not surprising. I’m just frustrated now bc he’s blaming me for being pregnant.
Just wanted to let u know and let any future or current girl dealing with him to know what kind of guy he is. I also sent you screenshots to his response when I told him I was pregnant.

WOW!! This is novel!! Great stuff!
So he has 2 kids and is expecting another. No relation with the motheres, right? ...this guy is a disaster...
Background check needed before draft day!
