be very patient with gerald green and it will pay off.

i mean come on, your looking at the guy who will replace pierce fosho after pierce retires...gerald is the tracy mcgrady type of player and hes very efficient with his scoring.

KEEP HIM!!!

Gerald Green is gonna be a star one day..it just sucks that there's so many players who can play the 2 and 3 on the C's (Pierce, Sczerbiak, Allen). He should be ahead of Allen on the depth chart. I think he's got almost all the tools offensively, but with getting stronger and learning to defend NBA players oppossed to the high schoolers he was competing against. Just remember, most guys coming out of high school not named Josh Smith or Dwight Howard aren't lockdown defenders went they start out..and Green hasn't even gotten the playing time to learn.

Give him a couple of years he will develop. Superstar i'm not sure but i see him being like a Desmond Mason type player. However i've only see him play a few games on league pass

I hope he's in the dunk contest this year, would love to see him and James White.

If Capt America could Ball they would change his name to Capt Green Bean Town. I don't care if his Defence is Lacking, he is young, but OMG his Potential is Litteraly through the roof, cut this kid loose with The Truth, West, Perk and Gomes. It's time the to ride the Green Train these boy's can RunNGun Let them have this year, Give them some time to Gel and Get Gomes and Green some PT. I say Eat the money for Scalabrine cut him, because courtime is valuble to these guy's and I also Vote to Fire DOC. and Hire Kerr or Van Gundy someone that there Pholosophy isn't yesterday's game. If we don't do something Lucky's Gold and TheTruth will be on the Rival side of the Rainbow.

McGrady took several years to develop and pay his dues. Give Green the same amount of time and he should be a similiar player with similiar stats.

green has a nice looking jumpshot. Rare for an athletic talent. I'm a laker fan and i'm admitting to Green's brilliance!

Don't waste him like you did with J.J. for Rodney rogers...why...
