Hoiberg on Royce White (Draft Express)

[Cy$]

Saw this was linked on ISU Facebook page so thought I'd share it here. It's a phone call from Fred explaining Royce's game. There's also some highlights from the past season in it.

Very thorough analysis of RW.

 

[Rhoadhoused]

That's very fair. The only thing I really disagree with is the anxiety concerns, but everyone says that and I think they are all wrong.

 

[CyBer]

Good analysis, like others have said Anxiety will be a non issue.

 

[HFCS]

That's very fair. The only thing I really disagree with is the anxiety concerns, but everyone says that and I think they are all wrong.

He will have to prove that to teams interested in making him a first rounder in a more personal way. It's not something they can gather from game tape.

ISU fans followed him for two years (in a pretty obsessive way) and didn't get a single red flag so we see it differently obviously.

Damn, those dudes really did their homework. Fun vid to watch until the very end.

I third this.

I third this.

In the highlights spotlighting his assists we sure threw up some bricks.

 

[brokenloginagain]

wait i thought all the mock drafts were a joke done by idiots?

I also noticed that the team looked like complete **** throughout the video. :twitcy:

Royce just called the guy who made this video out on Twitter. He never plead guilty to anything with stealing a laptop, yet this video said he did. I'd be pretty ****** if I was Royce too...

I was wondering about that. I had thought he was proven not guilty.

Not actually a mock draft, so your bitter post is...well it just comes across as bitter. Did you watch the video?

This now has an annotation box over it with a more correct statement.

Thorough analysis.

Looks like a top-20 prospect to me (although I'm obviously biased, and don't follow NBA draft closely enough to know the draft projections or team needs ahead of him).

Weaknesses seem like legit observations — although, character-wise, the Minnesota problems seem kind of under-the-bridge.

Downsides of game-play: Fairly spot-on. You know what would've made a difference with a majority of that? Another year of college ball. (Again, yeah, selfish from ISU fan perspective :smile

I wish they would have showed his coast to coast dunk on UCONN or a some of his "clutch" plays, such as the K-state jumper. But other than that, it was a very good video

 

[Rural]

I think he surprises and goes inside the lottery group.

I agree. But at the same time there's so many Royce highlights to choose from it's inevitable that some good ones are left out

Big twitter conversation going on about Royce:

Jason McIntyre ‏@TheBigLead
disagree. Top 15 pick. Workout meaningless. RT @JonRothstein: ISU's Royce White...Could go anywhere from 10-30. Workouts will b pivotal

Bill Meehan ‏@billmeehan
@TheBigLead @JonRothstein I'd think interviews are most important for Royce.

Jason McIntyre ‏@TheBigLead
@billmeehan @jonrothstein I could agree with the interviews portion

Jon Rothstein ‏@JonRothstein
@TheBigLead @billmeehan was actually really impressed the few times I talked to Royce. Think his shooting is the biggest question.

Jason McIntyre ‏@TheBigLead
@JonRothstein @billmeehan the GM who takes Perry Jones instead of Royce White will be out of a job in 3 yrs

I laughed at this

Who actually cares about these videos? It is just for us? I don't see real NBA scouts needing this sort of information from a free public website. And if an NBA scout was paying him for this information, wouldn't they be ticked to see it on a free public website?
