Now, is there any move that you regret not doing?" Wyc Grousbeck "Oh, I’m sure. Well, I do regret trading Perk, to be honest. That was one we all thought about, and there were discussions around the table. And I’ve got to sign off on the trades as the governor, lead owner.

And—nothing against Jeff Green—he just won a championship, you know. But anyway, our team didn’t feel the same after Perk was gone. So, not everything goes perfect. Not that everything can go perfect—this year, you know, JT lost his Achilles. So yeah... You go for the highs, and you get through the lows, and you have a brotherhood that lasts for life."

“I want to play as long as I can,” Green told Lowe. “The goal is to get to 20 years, so two shy. Houston has been home for me for the last couple of years, and I want to keep it that way.
