They'll try but teams around the league will throw money at him.
Young players have to make their money when they can, that's just how it is.
Green is playing incredible. But how bad do you
think spurs will try to keep him.
I just don't wanna get a green Jersey and
then he leaves.

He will definitely get some offers this summer.
He'll stay but wait until he switches his number to #14
PLEASE RE-SIGN HIM!!!!!
He won't be here next year. His stock is too high now.
If we win it I don't think it would matter. His play during these playoffs and reg season will force another team to pay him more than we can. Pop will look for the next best thing as he believes in his system. But if we aren't outbid for his services we definetely keep him.
I hope he stays in San Antonio. Pops is the best coach in the NBA. The Spurs system has allowed Danny to shine. I think the situation is perfect for him. But if some other team offers him some obscene amount of money and wants to overpay him, I couldn't blame him for taking it.
6 years ago he was a freshman at UNC, being told his dad was going to jail, and he was having to send his stipend money home to support his brothers. Last year he was being cut from the end of the Cavs bench, not knowing if he would ever get another shot in the NBA. Whatever he gets after this season, I'll be extremely happy for him. But I hope he gets to stay a Spur.
the funni thing is his got a few haters on realgm cause he dance with that turd lebron when they both were at cleveland...
Tell them they are fools. Danny was dancing long before he ever met Lebron.
They've got to lock him up. He and KL complement each other and give us the ability to guard 1-4.
I have to say... I didn't think he would make the squad this year... and I don't think Pop did either.
He shined this season, and has been looking great this post season. I hope he stays, but I also hope he leaves. He deserves good money, but he'll know why he's getting it.
DG can thank JA for sucking enough to give him a chance. Now it's clear he belongs.
He is the starting 2 guard on the team that's likely going to be champs.. The Spurs wont let him go...

He was a great pick-up for you but does seem a system player. Don't think he would shine half as much elsewhere.
This might be true but teams are willing to spend enough money to find out. Someone important always leaves the championship caliber team the following season.. I think he might be the player, and he should. His career was going to the gutter before he shined here, if you don't believe he'll take a lot of money to leave you're fooling yourself.

It seems this will be held against him and might potentially turn off some GMs, but I don't think it's true. He's not a star or anything but he's the kinda glue guy that all good teams need , he can do a lot of things well, while not excelling at anything in particular. In a perfect world he'd get an offer around 4 mil per, which the Spurs would match.
If he continues to play well throughout the playoff, and especially if we win it all with him having some serious contribution in the final series, full MLE, full years contract is kinda the lowest common denominator offering for him, even for the Spurs.
I don't think teams with serious capspace will be all over him, not exactly a cornerpiece for franchise rebuilding, but teams with championship aspiration WILL look at him seriously. Perhaps the biggest threat would be Dallas, if they lose out on Deron, Cuban might make a serious run for him + Dragic using the available capspace.
Sorry its bothering me...where/what is Donesia?
If he keeps playing that way in the playoff on national TV, some teams will be dumb enough to offer him a contract we won't be able to match
Other NBA teams always seem to overpay for free agents of championship teams the following summer. Look no further than the amount of money the T-Wolves overpaid for J.J. Barea (4 yrs - 19mil).
This offseason may not be as bleak as last season - for teams looking to retain their own free agents. One thing possibly working in the Spurs favor is there are a few teams with available cap space. The other is the punitive penalties against teams that exceed the luxury tax, making it difficult to next-to-impossible for luxury tax teams to participate in free agency.
All that said, teams will surely come after Green and some team could very well go loco with an offer, but I'm confident that Danny knows how well he has it with San Antonio. After all, he's the starting shooting guard on a championship-caliber team. He may get more money to go elsewhere, but it will like be to a non-playoff team or to a team where he will not be guaranteed a starting spot. Will he really want to go to a doormat organization for more dollars?
I'm also confident that the Spurs will be the frontrunners for his services. The F.O. will make a reasonable offer to him. He's simply too vital to the Spurs program.

yes , please
everyone one the spurs team will get good $$$. I think if we could we should keep everyone around or let some go in the hopes we could get Dwight Howard or Roy Hibbert.
Pretty much in every team looking for a starting SG and it's not like he's really garanteed to start here either, will Manu who will have the highest salary on the team next year really come off the bench again?
I think he's an awesome fit here, especially with TP while Kawhi is more Duncan-like, just feel like it's a great mix overall. But young players don't turn down opportunities to get paid, you never know when you could get injured in this sport.
Some of the SGs availlable this summer : Belinelli, the corpse of Ray Allen, Eric Gordon, OJ Mayo, Nick Young, JR Smith... Danny is gonna get paid, he's way better than Mayo, Young, Smith...
I believe any offer to Green has to be at or below the $5 million avg salary for the first two years. I would be surprised if he got more than the standard raise for the final two years. I expect this is about what the Spurs will offer him, and if they don't extend him, they'll match an offer sheet at that price.
1) Just six months (not years) ago, Danny Green was a rather irrelevant player in an irrelevant Euroleague team that was never even close to compete for anything.
2) Now he is an important piece in a championship team, and, at the very least this is in part because he is in a unique system that brings out the best in just about everybody.
I would tend to think that many GMs around the NBA realize that 70% of Green value is linked to the SA system.
3 years, 7.5 M should keep him in SA.
But then, again, there are GMs that, essentially, trade Monta Ellis for Richard Jefferson. Or give 22 M to Rashard Lewis, 18 M to JJohnson, or 17 to Brand.
Anything is possible.
