    Depends on the Rockets direction.... if we are bottoming out instead of retooling then I don’t see why we wouldn’t pick up his option.

    I’m surprised at how “meh” the guy looks. Maybe he’s having trouble picking up the offense or something, but it seems like he’s almost always out of position. He just looks very uncomfortable out there right now. Not that he gets to play much, which probably has something to do with it.

    might be one of the worst basketball players i've ever seen and i've watched Bruno Caboclo play significant minutes.

    I just can’t understand how these long, tall athletic guys aren’t good.
    Both of those players have every physical tool you can ask for. Hard to fix between the ears and motivation.

    There are several players on our roster I can't believe are more deserving of a roster spot than GG.

    I can't believe this guy played a lot his rookie year in Brooklyn? He looks like he regressed....a lot.

    Good for tanking tho.

    Call me whatever you want - empathizing with a wife beater tells me everything I need to know about you. I'll side with the Easterbunny morale code on this one vs allowing filthy MFers like Kurocs to enjoy millionaire status on my watch. He sucks at basketball anyway ship his ass back to the Eastern Bloc.

    I don't think he's good enough for the Vipers.

    You know nothing about me just cause i don't agree with JE morale code doesn't mean i side with a accused wife beater. As for his play there needs to be more film on him he must have some type of game his still in the league and not playing in the G league so someone does think his good at basketball.

    Shorter, but they both bench 85 pounds.

    Just saw him compared to Sam Dekker on several profiles. Pretty stinking accurate. There's a distinct possibility that he's definitely not a small-ball 5. They're just throwing him in during garbage time at 5.
