"Mr. Loon, you are never going to get anywhere in life if you do not learn to have self control. Your problem isn't that you do not obey us, it is that you do not obey yourself." Together with several hundred smacks to the back of my head (with love) and I eventually became 95% better at controlling my actions. I see a lot of quality "pine time" coming for Royce, until, and if, he learns.

Just wanted to add that another former Gopher, Vincent Grier, has had a few nice moments at the summer league as well. Speaking of Grier, I know you've probably got plenty of story ideas, but I'd love to see a profile on him - he played in France last year, and unless he sticks on an NBA team (I think it's unlikely), will likely be back there next year. Plus this way you could get the Strib to fund a nice little European vacation... Thanks for the report Myron.
