Nice read about him.
I really like his talent and I hope we can develop him , after all he is 2 years younger than both of our rookies.
He needs to improve his defense , his understanding of the game and his ball handling , if he can REALLY improve in those areas he can be a very nice scorer in this league.

Gerald Green is just not a very intelligent person and that is why he will never really amount to anything.

Good Read, I would love for us to retain GG next year for 2 million. I think under our coaching staff in a couple of years with hard work he could be a star

you guys are pretty hard on him. but I do believe he has the motivation and opportunity with our staff to thrive. with tmac, his idol, guiding him and showing him how it's done, the sky is really the limit. he was not bad last year with the celtics.

he's a good addition, he can finish in the fast break, unlike rafer or luther most of the time. He'll dunk it. And extremely athletic, and can shoot the ball. Hopefully that finger doesn't affect him.

Gerald Green in NBA 2k8 is like a superstar. He can't be stopped on his jumper and 3 pt shot, and he has a killer crossover and dunk to the basket.

If Green is still a Rocket next year, then I think we got away with a steal. Yeah Green has his knocks, but I think playing alongside 2 stars in Yao and Mac is going to really bring out the best in the kid. I truly believe we can find a consistent 3rd scorer in him if he really works as hard as everyone claims.
