..he was on the Summer League team. Any chance we give him a Training Camp invite? He had to have shown something to us.

What were his stats?

No. He was a cancer to any flow we had. The one good game Green had, Caracter smashed him in post game about being a me first player.

Really? How do you know that?

Inviting him to training camp would just be toying with his hopes. The guy is a horrible basketball player. Unless we want a carrier to Fisher's bags over the course of the year, the Lakers are good.

Yep, straight garbage. He will not get an invite.

I saw invite him to camp and see what he has. Up against real players it will show if he can be a player or if he is just all show and a dunker and not much else. Better than some no names that will for sure not make the team.

He can't compete in the summer league, what chance does he have with us? :wink:

Green should hire a great ex player to coach him. Then go on some bad team to get his oppurtunity.

he has chances as long Kobe, Gasol, Bynum, Artest, and Odom can spoiler his weakness.

Yeah Caracter called him out. Something to the effect of saying when they were obviously loosing and or about to loose the game. Gerald Green started to play outside the triangle offense. Going 1 on 5 and shoot recklessly. Which lead to turn overs and bad shots.

I give Caracter props for being candid without ripping anyone by name.

those guys can only do so much, Green thinks he can shoot which is all he does but he sucks at that too.

Dude he should've stayed in high-school...

A few years back I thought he could be a good understudy to Kobe but he hasn't worked on his game to deserve an invite. On top of not working on his game he is still not mentally grown to be ready for a camp invite on a poor team let alone the 2 time defending champions. Gerald Green needs to hire a former player to help him delevope and to hire a shrink to help him get rid of his me first personality because that is something he does just display on the court.
