He was even pretty good with the ball this game, tbh.... hope it lasts...

[TheGreatYacht]

Hope the Spurs learn to not fall in love with contract year players.... hope they learned after the atrocity that was this offseason

I hope he Keeps it up! Looks like he may have spent less time clubbing more time practicing this time around.

Both of those players sucked in their contract years. Green's had two great contract years before this one, and still left money on the table to come back each time.

[TheRemix]

He looks like he put in a lot of work this summer. Keep it up verde

[BillMc]

Danny vastly underrated here. I actually enjoy watching his transition defense.

[ohmwrecker]

Danny has improved going to the basket. He’s still a great defender, a spotty shooter and a below average ball handler. He’s really underrated running routes without the ball.

This thread wasn't about these 3 games, tbh. Danny has been a beast ever since he got to SA. Spurs fans are ungrateful with him. If folks like Avery and Bowen got their jerseys retired, Danny might end up getting his retired too.

Danny's staying unless he just wants to leave. Wouldn't surprise me if he and the team come to an agreement on an extension during this season. Whether Kyle stays or not has a lot to do with Parker's future. He'll need to take a huge (like 70-percent) pay cut to give them room to give Kyle the MLE deal he can probably expect. It's a damned shame they have Pau's deal to work around. I don't see them going into the tax for Kyle, but I do think they want to keep him and will do so if he stays under the $10 Million APY mark. Of course, Gay looms as a shadow over both players. It's hard to see all three coming back unless they combined for like $32 Million or less.

[Down Under]

He's effective offensively if the ball is moving. If it stagnates & we keep up the iso ball like the past 2 seasons, he's not gonna get his looks.

Yeah, I've noticed that his dribbles are better this year, and he's more confident at the rim. Tbh, this is the first improvement I've noticed from him in 3 seasons.

He was frustrating last season missing shots as often as he did but no way would Spurs get equal value had they traded him. The thing with Danny though is even if he isn't hitting his shots, he still gives you amazing defense every night.

Probably the best fast break defender in the league, tbh.

[spurraider21]

this. he's much more comfortable playing off penetration than playing off post-ups, which is what the spurs offense had to become when parker lost his step. green was at his best when mvparker was a thing. dijon has been recreating some of that magic

Last season's play didn't exactly scream "untradeable", his contract is pretty friendly though.

Either way, I'm good with his start to the season thus far. Good having some offensive capability besides 3's from the SG.

[UZER]

Posted this in the grades thread:

It's amazing how Danny's game improves when he puts it on the floor with purpose instead of "oh shit, what do I do now." It looks like he came into the season prepared to do this more. That's all were ever asked.

Still a wait and see game if he can keep it up all year and in the playoffs, but looks good so far.

[xellos88330]

This is what I have been wanting from Green for a while now. I have never had a problem with him defensively. It was on offense where he needed to improve. He constantly would settle for a contested 3. Now he is FINALLY starting to mix it up more and it adds a huge wrinkle to opponents defensive schemes. I have been screaming for him to put the ball on the floor without turning it over, and now he is. If I can complain about anything, it is that I want this kind of play to be consistent. Keep it up Danny!!!

[DaBears]

Seriously. He's having a great contract year. I would have loved him to have made another one of those threes, but he's totally stepping up without Kawhi.

I am loving the way he is playing this year as well, he finally went out and added versatility to his game this season, instead of the catch and shoot.. Good job DG your efforts make you a more complete player & certainly helps the SPURS..

[DaBears]

His shooting off the Dribble has been something else.. He put in a lot of effort this season.. Probably had talks with Coach's and family, thatif he wanted to be more productive his style of play needed to change w/ the players SPURS have now. Shots are not coming from the old locals anymore.

Was just coming here to post this. Unreal man. Didn't even notice this. He's playing like an elite role player right now.

[TimDunkem]

Been hating on him for awhile now but, you have to give credit where it is due, and Danny is playing well. I'd like to see him shoot a little more efficiently and remain consistent in not being a total liability when defenders close out on him. :lol Still, he's playing as well as you could ask for right now. Hope he can sustain it.

So far, yes, he's been fine in his role. I still have plenty of doubts about him, nor do I like his decision making most of the time. Nonetheless, he's playing well enough for me to focus my disappointment solely on Mills and Gasol right now. :lol

[BackHome]

Yeah I have been hating Danny SG who can’t dribble the ball but he seems to finally put the whole game within reach. I still want to him continue to improve but I’ll give him credit he is better this year then last year.

[spursistan]

922833467041353728

Two possessions (both ends) that sum up why Danny is 10 time more valuable than Mills and why it is going to suck losing him in FA because of the latter albatross loyalty contract..

[BackHome]

Danny not leaving he has been here so long and is very comfortable in his role and with this team. He is having fun and you can tell he is enjoying his self a lot more.

[cd021]

Really impressed with his ability to drive, it seems like the real deal. That's in addition to fucking beasting on D.

hhmmmmm I am very high on this team's upside.
As bummed out as I was over the summer, and the offseason signings, this season feels different. There is like a passing of the baton with Dijon. Whatever happens when Tony gets back I think he will still get minutes. He has given us reason to be super excited about him. Danny is balling. Kyle has shown a pulse. The Spurs team has a future. Once Kawhi gets healthy look out league!

He has a PO coming up. Last time they asked him about it, he said he was undecided. My guess is he'd prefer to work out an extension with PATFO similar to what LMA did. The most he could sign for is $53.8M/4, tacked on to this year.

[SAGirl]

It's in Danny's interest I think to sign a long term contract, so I kind of expect him to opt out to negotiate a long term deal.

[pad300]

Yep, he's definitely got a case of contract year play. In some ways it's disappointing. He's clearly put in much more work this summer - and I like to expect my multi-millionaire athletes to put in the work all the time... Still, I would not object to handing him that 4yr/53.8 Million extension. In practice that's 50% or so more than the MLE, which is to say roughly the $10 million /year that he was on before, adjusting for "inflation". He's been worth it, as a starter level player, who complements our style and star players nicely.

So because of a contract, he can all of the sudden finish at the rim? :lol

[Ice009]

I wouldn't sign him to an extension during the season. I'd rather play out the whole season and see how he plays for the rest of it.

I was one of the ones that wanted him traded. I thought he was regressing and was likely going to get worse and worse. I am amazed at how he's played to start the season. This is the Danny Green I remember on defense, but now also with some dribbling skills and finishing. I hope he can keep this up. Glad to be totally wrong on him so far.

Hopefully his shooting is more consistent for the WHOLE season too.

[dabom]

DG has always been ICYHOT.

[BackHome]

It’ss OK to be icy hot from the three point line but it’s not OK to not be able to dribble the ball and score a layup. I am glad he finally worked on his basic fundamentals and if he can keep working and improving the sky is the limit.

[Spur|n|Austin]

Not that we're jumping to conclusions 11 games into the season, but your Dude is in line for a big loyalty pay day in a year because he can put up stats against lower echelon talent but against the elites like Boston and Golden State, he's completely nonexistent on both ends of the court. He's following that 'get payed' blueprint set forth by Gashole and Paddy Cakes to a tee.

The funniest part about that clip is that Pop was dead wrong to bitch at Green. Fouling was not only a perfectly defensible move, but it got the team the ball back.

Jumping to conclusions would be assuming he's going to be a big-time scorer all year. Instead, it's much more feasible to see him as being the guy who's stepped up to get the team to 7-4 rather than 5-6 or 3-8.

And fuck yes, LMA isn't replaceable either. People who go "Well you could replace them with a max player and the team would be better" aren't worth the discussion.

I actually think Kawhi/LMA/Danny respectively cancel out Durant/Draymond/Klay. I also like the Spurs' bench better. It's Curry that tips the scales heavily in the Warriors' favor, without him I would take Spurs in 6 in an otherwise healthy matchup.

Yes Danny is on a bargain deal for the way he's playing but I don't think Klay is being overpaid. He obviously isn't the defender Green is but he's also not a bad defender and can drop buckets. He's not going to touch the ball as much with GS now that they have Durant but it's clear when he was the #2 option next to Steph that he could get the job done. Also, he's efficiently putting up 20+ PPG right now as a 3rd option. Green matches up well with him when they play but I think realistically you've got to take Klay because he's that much better of a scorer and he's a go to option.

Can't keep giving out those type of contracts. If it's a fair deal, great, if not, DO NOT OVERPAY.

http://projectspurs.com/2017/11/17/popovich-on-greens-evolution/

“He’s steadily become a professional over the years and taken his craft seriously,” said Popovich before the Spurs hosted the Oklahoma City Thunder. “An all around player, not just someone who can shoot open threes. He’s gone to work everyday with that thought and defensively, he figured out that he kind of had a knack for it on top of deciding to be that. He was pretty good with his hands, and anticipated pretty good position wise on the court. As he found some success, he was rewarded for it and I think he continues to take it very seriously. Then he started doing things like blocking shots on the break in transition. You’re wondering, ‘Where the heck did that come from? I don’t remember doing that drill.’ We don’t have those drills, but he’s doing it. He’s done that on his own. He’s excited to be an all around player.”

Undeniable that Danny has talent. Would like him to be consistent with it on defense as well as offense. There are times when he seems scared to challenge a guard who wants to scrape him off on a pick. But you have to put up with frustration for the times when he plays better than average.

Ha ha! One bad game. You're cute!

[DAF86]

Oh noes, Green from time to time has some bad games. It's almost as if he was just a role player, not a superstar. :wow

[palangi]

I never said he was great or bad. I just find the irreplaceable comment funny. Role players as you say he is are replaceable and can be upgraded.

Danny Green is seriously overrated on here... He can't pass or dribble... Defense many times is spotty... And he can't finish at the rim... Im actually surprised when he does, tbh... This isn't ten years ago... In this NBA you need players who can do multiple things... Everyone in the Warriors starting lineup can shoot dribble, and pass, except for the center... We need more versatile players on the wings if we want to win...

I hope the Spurs don't go re-signing him to a loyalty contract similar to Mills.

Say "NO" to overpaying. If they could somehow get rid of Mills and give him that money, that would be the upper limit of what I'd be willing to pay.

You say you don’t want him to have a contract like Mills, and then advocate getting rid of Mills, and giving Green that money. That contract would be EXACTLY like Mills.

[duncan2k5]

U talking about the couple games at the beginning of tje season where he finished some awkward drives? You guys make it seem like danny turned into harden overnight...couple games later he reverted to tjrowing layuos over the backboard after dribbling cringeworthily into the lane...he is over 30...he aint suddenly gonna learn to dribble and finish...these are the ages players actually get worse, or start to...lets not pretend danny didnt fall back down to earth aftwr his good start...he is who we know he is

Nope, Danny is worth what he's getting now (in this market), so a small increase is OK as I doubt he'd come back for the same amount of money. Personally, I'd only give Danny the same amount as he's getting now, max, but I doubt that would be enough. If we can get someone better for the same amount of money, or a little more, I'd let him walk.

Mills was not worth anywhere near what he got.

2nd most impactful Spurs after Kawhi and GOAT-tier transition defender..Completely owning Ish smith and Winslow in B2B games..

Gonna suck losing this nigga because of 50Mills..:depressed

I hope not. Spurs are in trouble with retaining all the guys that are up for contract. This team this season is really talented and has a lot of young talent. One can’t take for granted what they have been able to achieve without an MVP caliber player.

The potential exodus from this year has the potential to a lot more impactful than losing garbage time marvel Boban 2 seasons ago, overrated JSimms, Dedmon, plus retired Lee. Last season’s team lost some guys and this season’s team may face losses again, hopefully Danny is not among them, but I am not taking the team for granted. Imagine losing some of the guys from this season and replacing them with Costello, Hilliard and Milutinov.

( I will say Derrick White has shown some things though, but other than him... the pipeline seems dry).

[MI21]

Danny is the best transition in the defender when the opposition is coming at him head on.

Danny is now in the absolute top tier of chase down block transition defenders.

I fucking love this guy.

[jermaine]

Danny on defense is the same Danny he's always been. He was overshadowed by Kawhi an his bad shooting on offense. He's been this good!!

[duncan2k5]

Danny is not a top tier transition defender... Lmao... The Greek Freak agrees with me too

You're right. Kawhi has to actually get on the court again before you can put him up there.

As I said in the OP: Danny Green haters like duncan2k5 and palangi need to learn to watch and understand basketball, tbh.

[Chinook]

If we can get someone better for the same amount of money, or a little more, I'd let him walk.

But the team can't, especially not for the same opportunity cost (since the team won't have cap space regardless). Letting Danny walk really doesn't seem like an option outside a scenario where they trade away some guys to make real cap space. My guess is they only reason why he may opt out (and why he doesn't have an extension) is that PATFO are going to try to fit in as many re-signings as possible and are going to ask Danny's cooperation on that.

I actually had a much longer post in there going through the cap math. But that can be saved for later. We all probably know money will be tight with guys like Forbes and Anderson looking for the first paydays, so they will likely need vets like Danny, Tony and maybe Gay to work within the financial limits to bring back as many guys as possible while also getting a longer-term solution established as the third big.

[TD 21]

Are people really going to play this game again? Green isn't going anywhere, the same way Mills never was once Paul spurned them. He's as much of a culture carrier and a more important player.

If Gay is re-signed, he takes care of that. They clearly need to find a better third center though.

It's like the FO doesn't know their contracts and who ends where and how much money they have, It's their fucking job. :lol

[SpursforSix]

You're right...this is exactly what it looks like. And I'd add that it also seems like they lose track of how long these players have been in the league and what their skillset it.

[tonight...you]

I think you are absolutely right about Danny, and I hope you are. Big fan here. Danny has already demonstrated his commitment to the Spurs once before. I am not sure that we can count on "Spur-for-life Rudy, however. In my ideal world, however, we would bring back the whole team next season with the possible exceptions of Dijon, Joff and 50Mills. I really don't want to pay Tony much, and I don't want him starting, though, so that creates another set of problems...

[TheGreatYacht]

Post-October D-League Danny :lol

Getting torched each night :cry but, but, but his chasedown blocks :cry

October - 43.8 3P%
November - 35.9 3P%
December - 32.4 3P%

Dont get me wrong. He's still LDN, but the L doesn't stand for Long anymore :lol

[TheGreatYacht]

How anyone still thinks this dude is an All-Defensive type player clearly doesn't watch the games and relies on shit stats like DBPM.

It's like me and ElNono are the only dudes watching the games out here....

In a team full of stars, it's not bad to have a few hard-working role players, tbh... that's all. Problem is D-League fluffers thinking he's more than that, tbh

Honestly, I wouldn't even doubt it if either of us are better dribblers than he is. He's God awful...

[Mikeanaro]

And he is not a big so no excuses.

[TheGreatYacht]

It's legitimately starting to get laughable how bad he's been since October. I know most of you faggots are too scared to admit he's shit because it's an unpopular opinion, but it's hard to deny it. Not even his #1 fluffer, 'Nook, bothers to give this dude some sloppy as of late.

He gets worse by the game. In December he's missing 66% of his shots and 71% of his 3's (which are almost always wide open)

[Capt Bringdown]

He doesn't have Tim Duncan around anymore to make him look good. But I guess you can say that about the Spurs as a whole.

[TheGreatYacht]

Of course, OP :lmao

"Learn basketball, haters" .... you can't make this up

[Mikeanaro]

He needs a couple of years to develop a shot, no biggie.

[spursistan]

After a promising first two months, he's completely fallen off a cliff.

Green definitely opting in now :lol

[BackHome]

Yeah it sucks he won't opt out but if he does you either include him in the Kawhi trade or just let him walk. We have only one person who can take the ball to the rim off the dribble and he is 40 years old Manu. We need a desperate upgrade at SG, PG, SF, and Center.

So basically the Spurs have holes at every position. :lol

Such shit roster construction.
