It sounds like he will be back on the Rockets. They just needed a big guy to fill in for Landry.

Getting a first AND dumping Blount was an unequivocal win for the Wolves, too.

People are happy the man possibly losing his job?

He has bad attitude and truly isn't a well rounded player.

Absolutely. He was given every opportunity to succeed, and he messed it up. If he was in any other line of work in a similar situation, he would have been fired long ago. He brought it on himself.

think about it this way- he's been unemployed for the past 3 years and won 6 million in the lottery. hell he can live on the interest on that. i assume you were upset when kenneth lay lost his job, too?

It's not as if he won't be playing professional basketball for the next ten years. Might not be in the NBA, but somewhere.

I don't care if he didn't succeed. If the man tried and failed what more can you ask? Does that give cause to laugh at his misfortune? I could see this being more amusing if Green acted like a total ass and claimed to be God's gift or something but it sounds like he tried and worked to improve but couldn't cut it.

More reason to think BBIQ>>athletic ability everyday.

He'll be a stud in Europe, or wherever he decides to go if he doesn't work out in the NBA. Thanks for Snyder and the 2nd.

I'm not upset that he lost his job and I am well aware that he has enough money to live comfortably. I just don't see cause to celebrate his failure.

Unless there is something I don't know about he wasn't a jackass while he was here, I don't understand the hate.

Harris only signed a 10 day contract so they may just be waiting until Landry comes back and they will dump Harris and pick up Green again. Either way, he will be riding the pine the rest of the season
