Green a possibility?
Hey if I rememeber correctly Otis was pretty high on Taurean Green in last years draft. Kid is getting no action in Denver. Anyone think maybe he could be a possibility Otis might target? He has a very small contract, so Im not sure what kind of package could be used to get him. His days in FL were pretty good, he might be a nice back up to Nelson.

Re: Green a possibility?
I thought he was high on Richard that draft? Maybe I'm mistaken..But IMO Green won't be a target due to his size... If Otis is going to get a guard of his caliber on a contract like that, he'd reach for a guard 6'-2" or taller.. But hey, ya never know..

I could be wrong, it might have been Richards. I know it was a FL boy though. I wouldnt even mind if we got Richards somehow either.

Re: Green a possibility?
I beat him in 21 and knockout once in HS. This is before he had skills that he has now. I don't think he'd be the right fit here..He reminds me too much like Jameer Nelson.

Re: Green a possibility?
courtside he went to a couple of HS's one of them was mine, does that mean it's possible that, YOU WENT TO MY HS??????????
btw is was Richard who Otis said he wanted, but I think minny grabbed him like 2 spots ahead of the magic. Green would be descent tho.

Heh, I went to highschool/elementary school with Taurean too. Also played ball with him, though he beat me routinely.

He was at my HS only for 9th grade and moved onto another one.

You class of 02 or 03? I'm guessing the 84 stands for your birth year which means you would be either 02 or 03?

We've already done this class reunion stuff. There are a ton of Trinity and Lake Highland alums here apparently. I played with Taurean (Tory at that point) 7th and 8th grade bball, until he was academically ineligible. I actually got into a fist fight with him during practice. Oops.

Re: Green a possibility?
strange.
i had always though that green was a south florida kid since his father lived down here and even used to coach the men's team for the local D1 school, FAU, for a while.
in fact, one of my roommates in college also went to high school with taurean green and has a bunch of pics with him in them.
thing is, this guy went to high school in pompano beach. nowhere near central florida.

As previously stated, he isn't the brightest bulb in the box, and as such, jumped schools a bit. Nice guy though.

Re: Green a possibility?
If we're talking former Gator guards, how about Anthony Roberson? Anybody know where he's at?
And as long as we're sharing these kinds of stories... I played with J-will once in a pickup game at UF. I wasn't matched with him, but he thoroughly embarrassed me on a fast break once. Also got dunked on by several football players, including Travis Taylor and Fred Weary. Played with Jacques Green once too, but he just jacked up threes mostly.
