[tonight...you]

He's Slim with the Tilted Grin...

[Bender]

I haven't been paying attention... has he been burning any bridges since he's been gone?

[cd98]

vet min.

[Seventyniner]

Might as well start a Number Two free agency thread while you're at it.

[RD2191]

:wakeup

[NASpurs]

I've said it before, wouldn't surprise me to see him with the Lakers next year. They totally need a Danny Green type player.

[RD2191]

In before Chinook

[MoSpur02]

As NASpurs stated, I can totally see him joining his pal LeBron. I wouldn't want him back.

[SpurPadre]

He thinks this year's title was better than 2014 and that Coach Nurse is better than Pop. Fuck him and the horse he rode in on, tbh.

[kobyz]

I've said it before, wouldn't surprise me to see him with the Lakers next year. They totally need a Danny Green type player.

They need a stiff who is barely playable in the playoffs?

[DPG21920]

The one interesting thing about Danny/player like him would be allowing White to come off the bench which might end up optimal:

Murray / Danny (or Danny Type Player) / DeRozan / ? / LMA

Would allow for a bench of White / Forbes / Lonnie / Rudy / Poeltl which is pretty sick.

It's not out of the realm of possibility that player ends up being Keldon, tbh.

[Dennis the Menace]

Club Rio

[Texas_Ranger]

make your podcast, go to clubs and stay away from the Spurs.

[DAF86]

He's about to decline hard any second now (if he already didn't). Love him but pass. Also, show a bit more respect to the franchise that made you. Don't go around saying everything about Toronto and the Raptors is better -_-

[NASpurs]

Do we?

[wildbill2u]

No reason to visit old times on a forward looking squad. Thanks for your service and go with God.

[Strategic]

No reruns

[Leetonidas]

He had a nice RS but was terrible most of the playoffs and almost gave game 6 away to GS on a horrific turnover at the end. No thanks, ship has sailed tbh.

[BackHome]

He almost lost the series to Golden State hard pass.

[Dr. John R. Brinkley]

He went from icy-hot to pretty much just icy.

[John B]

Nope. He’s going to his pal Lebron

[cd98]

He only goes to LA if he can’t get an offer above the vet min. He wants as much money as he can get and Lakers don’t have any money to pay him.

[99 Problems]

Been a great defender and continues to pop up in big moments but not the DG we once had. Got the best out of himself. A fine Spurs guy, albeit some here dis him for being old mates with Bron. Won’t be back here but I wish him the best tbh...

[Play Boban]

Don’t want this beta incel tbh. He’s Kawhitter’s little toy fwiw......

[Chomag]

Um no , most overrated spurstalk player ever. You guys did see him almost fuck up game 6 right!

[sananspursfan21]

I haven't been paying attention... has he been burning any bridges since he's been gone?

Not unless your feelings are hurt easily. Called this championship sweeter than the one in San Antonio and acts like everything is better in Toronto but it’s water off a duck’s back to most of us.

[Legacy]

He looks like a young Lionel Richie.

[YGWHI]

Danny had the highest net ranking on Raptors and .44 3P%

His playoffs weren't that great but if you tell me that the Spurs can't use a .44% 3-point shooter...I can't help.


I haven't been paying attention... has he been burning any bridges since he's been gone?
Not really.

He just said that Nurse and Pop have different styles. Which is true.
While Nurse was a rookie coach that liked to ask players about some plays and how comfortable they feel, we already know that Pop has his own successful system where players don't have a word.

[BatManu20]

I've said it before, wouldn't surprise me to see him with the Lakers next year. They totally need a Danny Green type player.


I think so too. He’s also a friend of Lebron’s. Makes too much sense.

[BatManu20]

Should go without saying, but Spurs reportedly threw him into the trade last summer not only to make the money work, but because they wanted him gone. He won’t be a Spur again tbh.

[Realdeal1]

Danny does not want to come back to San Antonio ...we all know kahwi / Spurs relationship ended on a bad note but Danny/ Spurs relationship doesn’t seem like it was all roses either... I think Danny goes to the lakers

If this true...I just wonder WHY since Danny always seemed loyal to this franchise in previous years. He took a really big paycut to re-resign with the Spurs in 2015 to save cap space for LMA.

stop drinking.

there were probably no problems that cropped up until the last year with them misdiagnosing him.

[SpurPadre]

stop drinking.

Stop acting like Green was drafted in the first round and conaidered a can't miss prospect.

[YGWHI]

IDK but it seems like Raptors are interested in retaining him. We'll see.

[apalisoc_9]

He was amazing in the RS.

But a huge dissapointment in the playoffs save maybe for 3-4 games.

Hes always going to be an inconsostent shooter but teams will respect hin.

The concern isnhis decline defensively. He was atrocious defensivley in the playoffs.

Spurs should just go with white as a 2, Murray 1 and Derozan 3.

[TDMVPDPOY]

wtf would he wanna come back party on the river that is like a sewer?

[EricB]

While Danny isn’t the marksman he was in 14, he still steps up in big games as evidenced in the finals. He’s stil a DAMN good defender. He’s gonna get paid and I’ll guess by the Knicks.

[Chinook]

In before Chinook (https://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=37557)

He's better than some of the shit-tier players folks here want, but he doesn't fill a need. For better or worse, White and Walker replaced him, and I'm totally on board with watching how they do. If the team isn't going to sign a combo-forward, there isn't really any point in using the full MLE on anyone, and Danny likely gets at least that much.

[Nathan89]

Sign him. We need the championship experience.

[Legacy]

Sign him. We need the championship experience.

:cry Maybe Kawhi will come back if Danny decides to... :cry

[Legacy]

You do know that he and his longtime Girl Friend Still own a Home here in San Antonio?

There ya go... why not? Do it, Pop!

[Legacy]

He was just telling TORO and the reporter what they wanted to hear, imo. :lol

[buttsR4rebounding]

So would you go to a job interview and talk about how much better your former employer was than the employer you are interviewing with?

This.

You really think Pop won't play Mills? :spin

[lmbebo]

pass...

[HarlemHeat37]

He looked great this season, it looked like he wore down in the playoffs after they over-worked him all season, he shouldn't be used that much in that role(guarding the opposing best player every night) at his current age..

Doesn't make sense for the Spurs, regardless..also, if Green isn't going to get paid, why would he want to play for a non-contender like SA? He'll be pursued by the Raptors, Lakers, etc..

[cd98]

Um no , most overrated spurstalk player ever. You guys did see him almost fuck up game 6 right!

He won the series on that Klay foul. That game was in doubt before the injury.

[TheGreatYacht]

Best no 3 & no d player in the market tbh. :lol

He's fucking garbage. Allah be with the team that bites on this scrub

[Collins21]

Spurs are a non non contender but a lottery team like the Lakers are? That’s amusing.

[Down Under]

He'll get 3 years, 45mil from Toronto IMO

[kobyz]

He'll get maybe 2.5 maple syrup

[Play Boban]

But he
F
UCKS

so he can't be an "incel"
Who’s to say she’s not taking it tbh?

This is the time where I’m getting older now, so I think I probably want to get as many years as possible. Because as I get even older, I don’t think there will be many teams offering me that kind of longevity or as much money. I think this is the time where I need to maximize the dollars on the longest amount of years that I can do. I would definitely love to get four years, ideally. But, obviously, I’m 32 years old now, so some teams may not want to offer a four-year deal. But I’d love a three-year or four-year deal.

[MoSpur02]

Besides Toronto, Mavs, Kings, Clippers, and Hawks will be interested in Danny per Legion Hoops

[timvp]

Get dat money, DG :tu

[Mugen]

Go fuck yourself, Danny. :lol

[pad300]

Get dat money, DG :tu

Pretty much, good for Danny. I wish him well. When he was a Spur, he bought in and gave it what he had... And that helped to bring the team a Banner. For a role-player, that's fine by me.

[MoSpur02]

Supposedly he wants a 3-4 year contract. I don't see a contending team offering more than 2 years

[Spursfanfromafar]

Danny Green is a winner who maximized his talents and improved as a player continually. I really missed his presence among the Spurs last season. We are now stacked with 2s and Green is redundant for us. Here's hoping the Raptors retain him by paying him a good salary.

[D-Robinson 50 fan]

Hopefully he doesn’t go to the Lakers. Some team will and should give him his last solid pay day. While he was with our Spurs he gave his all and really turned himself into a solid NBA player.

[GreekSpursfan]

Of course he's going to the Lakers or Clippers if Kawhi leaves Toronto which he will, its a done deal imo.

[slick'81]

Yea fck off ldn

[EricB]

Doesnt need to go to a contender

[Chinook]

Doesnt need to go to a contender

Maybe. But not only has Green never been on a non-contender (not counting the few seconds before he got cut in Cleveland and two years ago when Kawhi was out), but he hasn't been on a team without multiple future HoFers on it. He's won his rings, but I think he'll want more.

He sacrificed big time in his last contract. He’s getting paid and going for that this time.

[MoSpur02]

Doesnt need to go to a contender

Didn't say he needed to. Just saying I don't think a contending team would offer a 3-4 year contract like he's stated as wanting. I could be wrong though. Maybe a contender will offer him the length he wants if they really want him.

[RC_Drunkford]

just don't go to the Lakers or Mavs Danny

[CGD]

Danny, please get paid. You deserve it

[Drom John]

That Cavaliers team had the best record in the NBA.

[Dverde]

:spin Lakers gave him 2 years, 30 millions :lol. Danny going to get traded on that deal.

[HarlemHeat37]

This was one of the best pieces of work from an agent that I've seen in a minute:lol

Waited for Kawhi all the way, knowing a team like the Lakers would be desperate to throw BIG money if they missed on Kawhi..

[Dverde]

Getting a two year deal with them is crazy. Like I said, I doubt Danny makes it to that second year. Lakers have no draft picks, but someone will bail them out.

[Russ]

:spin Lakers gave him 2 years, 30 millions :lol. Danny going to get traded on that deal.

Imagine the meltdown if the Spurs did that! :lol

Danny was unreliable the last couple of years in SA. Then he resurrected his career in Toronto. But that was with an incredibly well-constructed roster -- Danny could hide in Toronto.

There will be no hiding for Danny under bright lights of Staples with Lebron and all kinds of frustrated Laker fans (with unrealistic expectations) glaring down.

I hope the Lakers get a knife set with this consolation prize :lol :lol :lol

[Seventyniner]

I'm guessing the second year is a team option.

[Degoat]

it’s funny, I love Danny Green but lakers are acting like he’s a fantastic consolation prize lol I have a feeling he’ll be missing plenty of wide open 3’s for the lakers :lol

[r0drig0lac]

it’s funny, I love Danny Green but lakers are acting like he’s a fantastic consolation prize lol I have a feeling he’ll be missing plenty of wide open 3’s for the lakers :lol

he has two superstars to get attention, he will still have his lot of open shots

[JeffDuncan]

I'm guessing the second year is a team option.

According to Spotrac all $30 million is guaranteed.

[timtonymanu]

He’ll satisfy LeBron’s attention whore antics and dance with him on the sidelines again. Contract well earned.
