Will Gerald Green make the cut?

Bust.

 

I think Gerald Green will be a really great player later on. He's shown us flashes of great potential and we got him for a low price. He already averaged 15.5 points as a starter last season in 26 contests, imagine how he'll be about 2-3 years from now!

 

i sure hope so. We're a little thin @ the wing.

 

I voted potential rotation player...


Isn't this basically the purposed of the other multiple Green threads??? Why another thread?

 

Bust! Gerald Green in person is an arrogant, it is all about me snob that doesn't care about competiting and playing hard whatsoever. When he came out of high school at Gulfshores Academy here in Houston, he never tried hard because he was so much better than everyone and apparently his attitude transfered to the NBA because he plays the same way as he did about 4 years ago.

In the point of the Rockets trade though, it was a "no risk" situation. If he turns out great, it becomes a steal.. If not, he will rot at the end of the bench like Snyder did. I would truly be amazed if this kid could be 1/2 of what Snyder was.

 

Because he played on a team that didn't win last year in BOSTON! This guy before he was drafted was suppose to me the next T-Mac, at this point I would be happy if he became someone who can actually pee a drop in the NBA because as of right now, he hasn't.

 

wut does him being on a bad team have to do with his potential, i watched Gerald Green, i live in boston, he can become a great player with the right coaching...i think if t-mac and battier take him under there wing he will be good for us...

 

they wanted to tank the season that's why they let him play.... for one purpose: lose!

 

let him develop under the veterans and under tmac and we will see from there. he has the potential and athletic ability just like tmac did but will he work at it is the real question.

im pulling for him to atleast become a decent player

 

Need more than 2 options on that poll. He's 2 years removed from high school and -yet- still scored 10.4ppg last season before being traded to the wolves. I think he could be a very good player given a little seasoning.

 

Is this supposed to be a serious question? Green is definitely going to make this team and provide big help. He's just way too talented not to play at all

 

I don't see any development of him as a player - and he can't shoot the ball.

He's a bust.

 

Solid rotational player. Just needs to work on how to actually play basketball.

 

The optimist in me says Gerald Green will be a pleasant surprise; hopefully he has a decent shooting touch that we don't know about in addition to his ridiculous hops. A similarly athletic player that disappointed me greatly was Stromile Swift - Playing in Houston with veterans gives Green the best environment he could ask for - We'll know soon enough if he has a future in the league or whether or he'll be remembered as this decade's Harold Miner.

 

I could see him not making it, but watching him working with Elston Turner and Dikembe in that Chron video does get me a little excited. It's really all on him to listen and work, because he has all the people here to help and guide him that he needs.

 

I have heard all the negatives about him, I even called him Stromile Jr. in another post, but, I got a feeling, and I never know exactly why I get these, but I think this kid could turnout to be a steal. Looks like a bust, but somehow, I can't go there. Let's see what happens. If he "makes it," imagine the "youth movement" the Rockets could have: Scola, Landry, Brooks, Hayes, Novak and Green. That is more promising youngsters than we have had around here in a long time. I hope my hunch comes true.
