    Gerald Green a Rocket

    I'm sorry, now you've got the S2's biggest nut hugger on your team.

    [​IMG] Saw that coming, and if it wasn't posted I would have.

    Good for Gerald, getting sent home. This way, after he fails to get another contract, he doesn't have to move again.

    Kidding, I hope he makes the best of it.

    Think Gerald gets any minutes in Houston?

    Maybe he can take over Wells' small role..?

    Playing for his hometown team should motivate him, if it doesn't work out for him here, I doubt he stays in the league.

    Too bad this didn't happen last week.

    Yao Ming could've put that cupcake on the rim without a ladder.

    I've seen bad mixtapes in my lifetime, but that just might be the worst

    A quick glance at his youtube profile allows you to delve even further into the psyche of this strange, strange, man.

    He has made like 100 Gerald Green videos and other Celtics mixes, all with that Gerald Green "trademark" at the beginning.

    [​IMG] Mad because you don't have my skills? Yup, all those great Celtic mixes, thanks to me. I did it by myself. Anyways, where are all the people that said he had no value? Why would a playoff team pick him up? Gerald Green learning from his idol will do wonders. Mark it down this is the turning point for Gerald Green. In H-Town! Super happy for GG!

    The NBA will FEAR the future soon. [​IMG]

    Gerald Green has the prestige of being one of the youngest journey men in the league; congrats. Usually players have to wait until they decline and have minimal value to get that accolade, but it appears as if Green has already reached that point in his career.

    Great trade for Houston. We get an athletic athlete that can shoot the ball. T-Mac was successful when he had a lot of shooters. Getting Green and Haluska makes me wonder if Morey is trying to get the Mcgrady of old back when he thrived when surrounded by shooters in Orlando.
