Interesting. I have good expectations for Green, but the new leadership cannot be beholden to the previous regime decisions. I understand they are indicating patience, but this new regime needs to make move they think are the best for the franchise.
Garuba vs Green seems equal. Both are really raw, but provide similar positives. Defense, energy, athleticism.
I would really prefer to hold onto Green but he is our one asset that may have some value. I expect Green to be with the team and get some minutes next year, but I agree it is odd that he is not playing in summer league. If he is good enough to practice, I am not sure why you don't throw him out there for a few games.
edit- I just don't see Houston moving him though. They universally had an excellent draft from the "draft experts". Their first two picks looked great in their first G-league game. I would be surprised if anything is there, but interesting theory to discuss.
