    Will surely take minutes from Weber and Black, can create his own shot and knock down the 3, helping the Rockets still score when Harden sits. 8-10 ppg would be a God send for this team with Luc, CP3, and Capela all banged up.

    I'm glad we have a GM who recognized we need more help after losing 3 straight instead of banging his head against the wall hoping for something different to happen.

    Maybe a Beasley-type signing? I just hope he isn't traded for Tyler Ennis during the off-season Still disappointed that Canaan didn't work out here on his second stint.

    Yeah..... lets hope not. Marcus Thornton was a really bad cancer on the Rockets. Green has had problems for sure. He was unprepared and immature when he entered the league. He has struggled with focus as well. Then there is the flakka and mental health issues.

    really? took him that long to figure out an 8.5 man rotation with half of them 30+ years old and 4 of them with injury history clearly AIN'T enough for a 82 reg & ~30 playoff game season

    I find it odd he’s not on a team, such a strange player. He was making strides on the suns and really coming into his own.

    Regardless, great signing for us I feel like, he’s our new Beasley

    Did we have a free roster spot or did we cut someone for this? I can't see any thread about having cut anyone?

    Green will provide less defense than Troy but MDA will have more confidence in him. Green's game is tailor made for 3-D wing in MDA system. Except the D part.

    Can't believe he's already 31. Time flies man.

    Marcus Thorton was one of the few bright spots of that God forsaken bickerstaff year. The real cancer was lawson/ Bickerstaff.

    There has been a free roster spot on the team since the season began.
