“He’s a young guy who, in time, is going to be a good player. Sometimes it takes somebody two, three, four years before they find the right situation."

So this means that we might get to see him play next year.

True, but Green can also defend. I actually never wanted the Spurs to waive Green in the 1st place. This signing is more about next year anyway, so nothing really to get excited about this year.

Good signing, considering. Green's a good bet to be a solid role player and could excel in the Spurs' system/environment.

Considering because, it's not like Pop's gonna play anyone else that didn't get the Spurs the No. 1 seed. If Splitter can't get off the bench and even Anderson can't find the time after proving himself to be an asset for the team - maybe he winds being that again as his conditioning improves - it's not like some guy off the street's gonna be given time to contribute.

Good signing, considering . . .

Exactly.

It's obvious that this is akin to the Gee signing of last season. In essence, the Spurs are hoping to find a diamond in the rough to provide depth at SF and serve as a wing defender. Barring a rash of injuries, Green hasn't the fainest of hope to even be active with any degree of regularity, let alone to crack the rotation. Instead of having him come to a free agent camp, open gym, etc., like Neal, this gives them a head start, in terms of evaluating him and working with him.

I still maintain that when the musical chairs with this spot/role eventually stop, Hairston winds up as the guy, unless they're able to fill it through the draft.

What's up with Malik Hairston? Is he still on the Spurs' radar or have they moved on from him? A lot of people like to rip on the guy but he was a good defender.

As i know Spurs fan care a lot about size here i go:

He is a strong 6'6

He is 6'5"25 without shoes and 6'6"50 with shoes, exactly the same size of Dejuan Blair. He has a 6'10" wingspan

James Anderson is listed as a 6'6 as well, but loot at his measurements:

6'4"75 w/t shoes and 6'5"75 with shoes/ 6'8"50 wingspan. A weak 6'6

He signed a two-year contract in Italy. I could be wrong, but I believe he's got an opt out after this season to return to the NBA.

The way the Spurs spoke about him after he left, I got the sense that he's still in their plans. I never thought he wasn't, though. He just got a guaranteed contract overseas and a chance at more playing time than he was likely to get with the Spurs.

Hey if Green works out, it will be a huge bonus for the Spurs - and one less thing they need to worry about during the draft. Some spirited competition (and depth) at the SF position is something they badly need.

Perhaps then they can dedicate themselves to finding the best "big" that's available to them at the end of the round.

For those interested, here's ESPN's 2009 Draft Profile for Green

Player Evaluation - Danny Green

Projection:
Late first to early second

Positives
- All-around player who excels on both ends of the floor
- Offensively very smooth
- Has a nice stroke with growing NBA 3-point range
- He's a good rebounder for his position
- A potential lockdown defender
- Tough, great basketball IQ

Negatives:
- Just an average athlete
- Not particularly explosive
- Lacks great lateral quickness
- More than a role player in the pros?

Just one more signing to prove the Spurs are looking desperately for more 6'5 or 6'6 players to fill an as yet un-stated role. This mono-mania on players who are this height may be some kind of experiment that Pop wants to try to leave as his legacy of a new paradigm of play in the NBA.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present you with the new-look Spurs A.D. (after Duncan)--the Flying Fleas. A deep rotation of interchangeable small-ball players who rely on ball movement, shooting and small-guy pestering defense as their style of play..

Possible starters are Manu, Parker, Anderson, Blair, Hill, Neal, Green, Jeffers, blah, blah, blah.

It's hard to know because he's never really d-ing up good perimeter players during meaningful minutes. He's athletic and he seems to have decent lateral quickness, but that's about all I can say.

He's not a better player than JA, that's for sure. He's only out there because it seems like Anderson never really got back in the swing of things after his injury.

Anderson is clearly the more talented player and I expect him to have a better career. But we live in the present and in the here and now, Green is more capable of helping the team in the playoffs than Anderson is. He's in better shape and he's more sure of himself. Anderson looks like a wide-eyed rookie; Green plays like he knows he belongs. He's also got some big game experience and doesn't seem like the type who would shrink or back down if he had to play more than an end of quarter defensive stand in the playoffs.

Green is a good fit on this team. Even though he's a limited player, they don't need a spectacular talent or athlete to fill the role they're looking for. They need someone who's athletic enough to play above average defense against wings and shoot the three at a good enough percentage to not be a liability offensively.

Not that they're set up at SF for the next decade, but all of a sudden, they've got some depth there now and enough options that, short of the absolute best prospect available at their pick being an SF, they don't need to draft one nor necessarily sign one. The situation isn't as dire as it was during training camp, when Simmons was being given a look, or even during the season, when Udoka was being given a look.

My sentiments exactly. Green has always played as a role player in a team with a more advanced system. Anderson, although more talented, has played only on teams where he was the main go-to guy.

I predict that Green will likely be suited up for the playoffs. Anderson unfortunately will be in the injury reserve.

I hope Green will be suited up for the playoffs. There is no for him not to. He's been surprisingly productive in small stints and really could be a solid backup for RJ.

However knowing Pop, I see him keeping Green suited up merely for insurance and blowouts. I'd be surprised if he got any real meaningful time in playoff games.

What are you suggesting that Pop should do?

1. Expand the rotation for the playoffs.

2. Play Green ahead of one of these players:

Parker
Ginobili
Jefferson
Hill
Neal

I think Pop would choose Novak over Green to back up RJ, unfortunately. I do expect Green to be in the 12th man roster with Anderson, Quinn, and Butler inactive.

The problem was that Olimpija thought Danny was better than he really was. The guy had to do everything on offense and with his ball handling skills thats not that good. I also don't get why some fans were not happy with him, it's not like he was a proven NBA player. And with all that he was still their best player.

If this wasn't sarcastic it would have been a good take :lol

Even in his first games as a spur, DG was more active defensively than any other wing on the team. He was hustling. That said, it took 2 years to turn him into a competent role player, but in many ways he has been one of the saviors of the team.

I ran into your troll account a week ago. Pretty pathetic attempt at trolling, tbh. I thought you were perma banned. I guess there's always next season though.

The Spurs would have been "contenders" with or without Danny Green.


Of course... because the Spurs have been contenders nearly every season Pop has been here.

But Danny is one piece that helped make the Spurs a title favorite again. The defense he and Kawhi provide are a pivotal piece for a championship. Danny can guard 3 positions well, and really hinders elite point guards when Pop puts sicks him on them. Kawhi can guard 3 or 4 positions at an elite level too.

It flies under the radar with his 3pt shooting, but Danny's defense is probably my favorite aspect of his game. He can play safety and cause havoc on opposing transition opportunities with blocks, strips, deflections, etc... Plus the way he has harassed guys like Chris Paul and Steph Curry into poor shooting nights is fantastic.

You of all people don't believe the Spurs were contenders between 2009 and 2011.

That almost sounds funny coming from a flip flopper like yourself. You said they were finished after the 2010 season, end of story. You're only back from the Heat bandwagon because you saw them as non championship material. Lol Suns fan to Spurs fan to Heat fan to Spurs fan. From a Giants fan to a Broncos fan. Is there a bigger frontrunner than Malik Hairston A.K.A HarlemHeat37? Where winning happens! That's where you'll find Harlem when he's not making fun of your kids.

P.S. You can pretend to be a Spurs fan all you want but your lousy takes on the Miami Heat message board say otherwise. Keep straddling that fence though.

Green has fantastic hands on defense. Just behind Ginobili. Maybe even better.

I have never posted on a Heat message board, nor have I ever cheered for the Suns in a game, nor have I ever been a Giants fan:lol..

I expect you'll be back next season posting about the Spurs' not being contenders after they go through their annual, mid-season mini-slump:lol..

He didn't believe they were contenders this year or last year, either..

He said they were on the same level as the Denver Nuggets last year, and said they were done mid-way through the Warriors series:lol..

These weren't pre-season takes, btw, he repeated this shit through April and even during the playoffs..

Now if he can just consistently put it on the floor and finish at the rim on offense and chop his steps when he's closing rather than flying by defenders on pump fakes.

That's not him. Someone put up a link of some posts he made years ago on a different message board. Exact same style...all the way down to the ellipses. That's just someone who stole his handle and is posting under it.

It's in the moment mistakes that can be corrected and if he can do that then his defense will be leaps and bounds better next season. I was super surprised he was able to get to the rim and finish, hit that dribble drive jumper but it looks like he's actually improving his mid range game.

Jumping at Ray was equivalent to leaving Duncan open at the elbow. It really wasn't a bad strategy, but Pop just felt like yelling because Allen made the shot. It's not even debatable which strategy is most effective.

I thought as much. I simply meant that that was his name. That other poster seemed very plain, which pretty much goes against everything I've seen about Harlem (good and bad).
