The subtle improvement to his game this year, tbh..

Last season, or even earlier this season, he was strictly a spot-up shooter that could only score on open looks from the attention of his teammates..now, he's able to make 3-pointers off 1 or 2 dribbles, which doesn't seem significant, but it's enough to add a different dimension to his 3-point shooting, tbh..

It allows him to score off a screen with the ball in his hands, and it allows him to be more useful in transition with the ball in his hands..

He's still completely incapable of scoring in a triple threat position and he's still limited as a finisher, but hopefully that will be the next improvement in his game next year, especially as teams begin to game plan against him..

Both Green and Leonard are grown-ups now. Possibly the best defensive 2/3 combo in the league. It's like having 2 slightly more talented Bruce Bowens

In other words, Green with his offensive flaws is a huge asset

It will be interesting to see how Miami plays him next game, tbh, especially with Parker potentially being hindered by the injury..

Green has all the physical tools to be an all star level shooter. If he keeps developing, the contract we signed him to will be a steal.

It's already a steal.

And if the Heat gameplan to run Green and Neal off the three-point line, the Big Three need to take advantage. The role-players are doing all they can right now.

I think Green has already shown in this playoffs he can handle being run of the 3pt line.

Yeah I love Green and Kawhi in our future.. we just need to develope a solid PF and find a good PG similar to Tony.. maybe CJ

Hell pump fake, dribble, move to the side then shoot.

Green when he's in these runs is bulletproof.

Even with all the sharpshooting, my favorite part of tonight was the two times Green missed, and instead of looking for a whistle he stayed in the play and got his own rebound, and then made both of the put-backs. The Big 3 need to pay attention to that. They've been looking for the whistles too much, and giving up on plays. Miami is a poor rebounding team, and a lot of those are still in play.

I'm also pretty impressed with the way Danny has kicked LeBron's ass on fast breaks... multiple times. I think the only time LeBron has managed to score was the one time he turned sideways to puss Danny, and the ref bailed him out with a whistle. Oh, yeah, and the blocks on LeBron. Bron is getting pissed, and Danny just keeps doing it to him. I guarantee you, Danny's in his head now. That doesn't mean LeBron won't have any big games, but he's definitely taking it personally.
