Well he isn't quite 6'6... From Wikipedia: 6 foot 5.25 in and Gerald Green is 6'8 and we are not evening playing him and he can shoot too.
Wow this guy looks really nice, very good shooter. But now we goptta decide. Do we need him? Maybe we should better use Novak
I feel that you should always go for the BPA especially in the late 2 round where the success rate for either local or international players is especially low.If there isn't anyone who can't help,trade the 2nd rounder for another 2nd rounder in a future draft.
I agree, the success rate is very low, but there is always a chance that you will take Arenas, Ellis, or something like that. This guy looks nice, he can shoot and he can be useful in clutch moments, but right now I would give playing time to Novak. We need shooters, but we also need scorers
Right now our shooting is very limited IMO.Head has regressed in the playoffs,Novak despite his limited athleticism and non-existent defense is the only shooter who has shown improvement. If the Rockets can get an extra shooter especially one with decent height and athletic ability,the Rockets should consider it. We are not likely to end up with a good scorer or a very strong defender who can score a bit i.e. a better player than Shan Foster at 54 but if someone like that is available the Rockets should have a good look at it. I wouldn't be surprised if Shan Foster were selected before the 54th pick.He seems like a decent mid-late 2nd rounder.
Yes, as I said earlier this guy looks interesting. He can really make even tough shots from the outside and when it counts he can take it inside. Right now all we need is more offensive power and he could be a good addition. But even if the Rockets drafted him, I doubt he would find his place in the rotation. BTW, I also don't belive he will be available at #54
I would rather use our 2nd round pick on JR Giddens if he is still available. 6'5" athletic freek that can flat out score, rebound and play defense. He would easily be an early to mid 1st round pick if not for the baggage he brings.
When did Gerald Green Learn to shoot? An athletic wing who can jump to canada if he wanted to that can shoot....be reasonable. No team would trade a guy who is athletic and can shoot. I'm sorry but its just not logical that a guy like this can not be in the league. I'm Gerald Green's biggest fan, but this guy is an average at best shooter, but can get better. He doesn't have the work ethic for it.
