    I knew he didn't make sense here, but I was still hoping to see him play again.

    Happy to see the Rockets do right by him though.

    Rewarding that loyalty will not go unnoticed. The ripple effect may eventually turn us into a preferred destination for free agents.

    If there's anybody who knows what it's like to come into the NBA at a young age and face a rude awakening of how hard the league really is, it's Gerald Green.

    Hey Jalen, pull up a chair and listen. This new coach has a story for you.

    I haven't been this happy since Daniel House released his new hit single Fly **** Only.

    OMG - really? Happy for him, but he was always known as a guy who wasn't all that smart to begin with.......I mean - he never could grip how to play defense.

    How on earth is a guy that couldn't stop smoking the Ganja, got run out of Houston because he ran with his boys and was caught smoking in the hotel lobby, before finally growing up - but was still basically a one trick pony on the floor going to help?

    Again, I like GG, but I want someone that has a high IQ like Battier to teach our 19 year olds, not someone who was proping up his gang friends and getting high early in his career.

    Get out of here DD.

    The Mayor belongs in the organization. We all welcome him back and hoping he teaches some of these young guys about having heart and putting it all on the line every game. Super happy about this.

    It’s aspects of the game he can help these youngins improve. Like hustle and heart. Playing with and for each other. He can show them how to have chemistry. This isn’t the most talented team in the league but they ain’t the least either. Even last year they weren’t. They shouldnt be the worst team In The league by this degree

    Still think he shouldve been a player on this year's Rockets.
    But a role on the coaching staff as player development I guess is a 2nd best.
    Really happy for The Mayor!
