This sucks, Gerald's defense is trash etc, but he still gives us instant offense off the bench, and when he's on fire he's basically unguardable, i'm intrigued by McLemore but i don't see him being as good as Gerald for us unfortunately.
D-Mo is working his way back so he'll be ready for the start of the playoffs! (Next day: "D-Mo out indefinitely.") SSDY (Y = year). Never trust Rockets' initial medical info. Billy Bob Thornton's coach to his team in the locker room after the first game: "The good news is, Boobie's fine. He'll be back next week........"
I hope he retires a Rocket. Now. And Tilman gives him a lifetime services contract. If he can make the squad next year, great; if not, he's a fine brand ambassador for the city and organization. The community should keep him home and take care of him: restaurants should pay him to eat, Mattress Mack should give him free furniture for life, Memorial Hermann or Methodist should comp his health care...
Damn GG. Not like this. McLemore better start hoisting those shots. This unfortunate event makes me feel like the rise of Clemons is coming. Clemons has all the bravado and confidence of GG. RIP GREENHOUSE
damn sucks for GG. he always brings the excitement and enthusiasm every year, and unfortunate to have to sit out this one

I just don't see what's so difficult about saying initially "Gerald has a foot injury and we're not sure what the severity is. We'll see how the tests go". And that goes for all these ridiculous escalating injury diagnoses the Rockets deal with. It comes across more deceitful than transparent.
We've needed more small forwards since last season. Now with GG out Morey needs to get Shump on board to either play or sign off on a sign and trade
This wouldn’t be as bad if Rockets would learn their lesson for once and stop reporting on injuries when they don’t know the severity of it! I feel bad for Gerald, he represented the Rockets like a boss and his pre-season was great. For the team I actually don’t think it’s the worst though, we need defense. House, Thabo and McLemore / Rivers can handle it.
