Both will have a hard time being full-time NBA contributors. White because of his aversion to conditioning, and PJIII because he only seems to play hard every fourth or fifth game.

Seriously, have you even seen him? How is he averse to conditioning?

Neither one of them made more than ten 3′s all year

You have not watched enough ISU games if you think Royce has no outside presence.

He’s a bright guy with an imaginary problem.

Royce has been in the first round of most mocks for awhile now. He didn’t exactly come from nowhere.

NHOH. He’s like the Blaine Gabbert of the 2012 NBA Draft

Oh, I know. I was defending him last night. I was trying to draw out a, “social anxiety disorder is fake” from a certain contributor to this blog.

Sorry KC, I do remember you sticking up for him last night.

I have to say, I was a bit worried about Hoiberg taking on all these transfers, but they really have been all good guys. No arrests, no rumors of ego issues, anything like that. So far it’s been a good way to jump start the program until he can recruit and develop high school talent.

I’ll miss Royce. Great talent, really unique guy. Shame we only had him for a year.

ATL, I haven’t been on a flight in over 10 years. never had the need or the funds to go anywhere that required a flight.

Just seems foreign to me is all. Lots of times flying is cheaper if you’re driving by yourself with gas and everything. 4-5 hours of driving is probably my limit… anything else and I’m flying.

Re: Fizer, that said there’s no question his career overall was a disappointment. He had a crapload of kids with a few different women which couldn’t have helped.

Fizer was a KU killer.

I said it last night and I’ll say it again: Royce White drove to one road game this year, in Louisville last week. Hoss

That Fizer draft might be the worst of all time.

If I was an owner, I’d fly him around in my personal jet and do the workout. Tell the pilot to hit turbulence, etc.

I just assume a big time Iowa State prospect is gonna end up like Marcus Fizer. It is unfair, I’m sure, but the team I own in my dreams (The Washington Bullets, Part 2.0 of Malibu, in case you were wondering) will never draft an Iowa State player because of that

Marcus Fizer also went to the Bulls, post-Jordan. Bad situation, and two blown ACLs didn’t help either. He underperformed for a #4 draft pick but injuries played a huge role in that. He was having his best season, solid by any standards, when he blew an ACL.

I absolutely HATE planes. Drove from Indiana to Vegas over 2 days while friends flew in 3 hours.

I haven’t been in a plane in seven years.

You guys are crazy.

I said it last night and I’ll say it again: Royce White drove to one road game this year, in Louisville last week. The only reason this was possible was because of spring break and class/schedules weren’t an issue.

He has anxiety about a lot of things, of which planes are one. He’s a bright guy with an anxiety issue. Not a troublemaker or head case.

Royce White can hit a three when needed.

I absolutely HATE planes. Drove from Indiana to Vegas over 2 days while friends flew in 3 hours. But I’d fly every day if you’re paying me $3-6 Mil

I haven’t been in a plane in seven years. I’d change my tune for millions.
