    No thanks. We already have a chucker who plays little defense in Green. Only difference is Green is not a knucklehead.

    A Former Houston Rockets coach said... "no more Knuckle heads!" Can the Rockets please focus on parts that won't sit on the bench and never get up. The kid dreams of dennis rodman at night.

    The rockets need more
    Volume shooters! We need players who can get hot any given night.

    Gerald Green = check

    Melo most likely = check

    Nick young would be a great addition. For a team that is shooting record breaking attempts we can use a guy like that who can just catch fire.

    He shot under 30% from three in the playoffs.

    On a team where he was probably getting wide open looks.

    He only played more than 15 minutes 6 times in the playoffs. In the Warriors 21 playoff games. He had one DNP. He played 20 playoff games and had 4 assists. 12 rebounds. 1 steal. He made 0 two point shots. I think he only attempted like 6 two point shots the whole playoffs.

    He had one job in the playoffs... to make relatively open threes. He absolutely sucked at that.

    Idc what you say Nick Young is a good role player and shows potential.

    He’s a pretty hot shooter usually.

    Nick Young shoot 58% from 3 at Toyota Center, basically the opposite of Ryan, 40% at the Oracle, seems good for us lol

    Yep. Lights out against us, but all in all streaky as HELL with no D or handles.And, he's wack as they come.

    MAYBE for the vet minimum, but I doubt it.

    I don't see him and GG combined being enough to offset losing Eric.

    Young would be at the end of the bench picking splinters out of his arse.

    i think he's a clown, but worth signing for 1-yr at the minimum for his shooting ...assuming there are no locker room risks.
