    When Royce shoots it, is he palming the ball like Rondo does? That could be a pretty simple fix to improve his shooting if he does.

    lol I was referring to the fact they have to score 120 points for free tacos. That's not very easy to do.

    It's a prelude to improvement. Worked for Jeremy Lin.

    Wow... Royce is no where near game shape.

    "The Rockets sent me down to the d-league because I wanted a protocal" Was that protocal a dietary one? Geez. I want this guy to succeed but he has some work to do. This will be really interesting to see if he can swallow his pride and really grow as a player...

    Ha, you'd think, but they get up there with the scoring. I think they average 109 ppg.

    Well truth be told, he's not really known for his defense at either position. But I think he has the talent and physical tools to guard both positions. Just needs to learn and develop.

    Not to mention T-Jones defensive versatility could cover up his mistakes, if we play them together off the bench.

    They've hit 120+ eight times this season. This would be number 9.

    The dude hasn't played a meaningful game since summer league. Game shape are not he's doing very well..

    Have to expect some rust. And every guy in the D league has some work to do... That's why its the D league.
