re ed spurfan
Mayo and Danny Gr
First off, both are about the same. Second, we had Green's bird rights. That's why the Spurs were able to offer him that contract. Spurs aren't under the cap.
You're quoting a dude who copied Slomo's pics, posted them in an 'N Sync messageboard and claimed them as his own until he got caught. He was known as TheWriter back then

Nostalgia. Those were the times for Spurs fans. So Buddy Holly is still around? Has he even apologized to Slomo?
Wow,he's stayed on the forums for seven years after being called out like that?
That takes balls son

Buddy Holly is one of the biggest s on this forum. No surprises here.
FIFY. I gotta admit, I thought you were smarter than your average 8 year old, and could manage. But hey, I don't mind helping the mentally handicapped when it's not too much trouble...
Wow, that's not an extremely re ed way to compare players.
Danny Green has more win shares per 48 minutes!
Take it fwiw, but when comparing SGs, it's reasonable to look at shooting stats.
Last season, Green was better in terms of:
FG%
3pt%
FT%
TS%
eFG%

Green predominantly takes spot up jumpers created by someone else when his defender doubles off of him. Mayo is actually a threat to score off the dribble and most of his minutes came with Memphis's bench players on the court with him where he was never gonna get doubled off. Simply using stats to compare the two players doesn't make any sense.
Of course not, but neither does simply relying on reputation or the eye test.
I'm not making the case that Green is better than Mayo, but the gulf between them is much less than what one expects when comparing a #3 pick to a #46 pick.
Yes what you say is right,but that doesn't make them practically the same player..
Imagine Danny Green being the 6th man of a team.
And now imagine OJ Mayo as the Spurs' 3th option..Would we even have this conversation?
Didn't say that they were.
An idiot did and you actually tried to support it.
One other thing. If Mayo starts for Dallas, his role will more closely approximate Green's role on the Spurs than his role with Memphis.
I don't think it would resemble either Green's role or Mayo's role in Memphis. He'd have the ball in his hands a lot more than Green does (what other Dallas perimeter player is gonna have it?) but he's also gonna be on the court with better players than he had in Memphis, including one of the best pick and roll PFs in the game. Lionel Hollins misused him and ed up what Mayo looked like he could become after his first two years.
Wow. What a massive . I always knew he was a got, but I didn't know the extent of it.
I said more closely approximate.
As to rest of what you said, I believe you've hit on a very possible reason that Mayo chose Dallas over Phoenix. He wants to be a PG, and he has a much better chance of dominating the ball while sharing the court with Collison than he would with Dragic.
It's pretty much accepted even by spurs fans that he's a got.
Son, once you take into account the class factor, you'll see the two players are much closer in terms of overall capabilities than people let on.
