After spending more than two years out of the NBA, Gerald Green earned a 10-day contract with the New Jersey Nets in February and made the most of it. He’s averaging 13.1 points per game, drawing lots of attention in the process.
Jonathan Abrams of Grantland wrote a feature on Gerald Green’s return to the NBA. Last year, Green signed with a team in China but was cut early in the season after the team’s slow start. Abrams quoted the former dunk contest winner:
“In China, what was so messed up is you play 35, 36 games,” he said. “We had only played four games and you’re already making decisions? We’ve still got another 34 games left.”
Green, who made the jump from high school to the NBA, clearly could use a simple lesson in mathematics. 4+34 = 38 Not 35 or 36.
In all seriousness, check out Abrams’ feature—especially if you’re in need of a pick-me-up.
