dude cost us the fkn game 1-9? wtf...............
Unless he ends up becoming more than a streaky spot-up shooter then I'd have to agree. If not AT LEAST demote him to the bench.
Trade him for what? What the are they going to get for dude and his contract now? Package deal with Blair maybe, but for what?
omg enough. every freakin trade offer proposed on this forum is "package him with blair"
NOBODY is going to think "i dont like that trade... but now that they're throwing in blair lets do it." dejuan blair =/= trade value
haha well put! neither of these guys has any trade value. But more to the point, all we've learned is that Green isn't, at this point, able to step up his game and become more than a ~20 minute role player. But as that 20 min guy he's been pretty solid this season. Helped us win quite a few ball games. So wait till everyone's healthy, his minutes will get cut and he'll go back to being that situational guy who just happens to start. Which seems to be his niche.
but honestly I thought this was just a vent thread anyways, so not sure why I bothered with that much of a response
How about...no. He's in a funk, sure...but to go off on him right now would be unfair. He's had to slide into the SF position and defend bigger players than him which may be taking away some of his energy on the offensive end. Once Kawhi gets back, and the rotations go back to normal, Green will be just fine...
So these trade threads are just going to keep appearing, might as well as have some fun with it...so with that said....
If you had to choose between this trade

this trade

or death(but the death is to have to your head smacked by the booty in my signature, 10,000 times)...which would you choose?
I'm really wondering the value Green has for the Spurs if he can't play better D. We already have a glut of SG who can't play D, it would be nice to get rid of one of the three to receive a SG who has a vague idea of what perimeter defense means. Not sure which of Neal or Green has the highest trade value, but one of them has to go.
what can you get for 3.5$ ? No good player is paid that little and is available for a trade. Also Green is good.
Gerald Henderson ???
Danny Green is to Pop as Lloyd Daniels was to John Lucas. Green isn't going to be traded because the Spurs aren't going to get any value in return and Pop loves him too much.
Tony Allen's 3.5............. just sayin.
You act like he's ever been anything more then a spot up shooter, that's where he fits in the system. He's just having some off nights right now. If anything he's disciplined in his role and gives us lots of energy on defense. Il check back in this thread when he goes 7/9 from three or when he shoots the game winner over Kobe and everyone is sucking him up.
I think Green is settling for too many threes.
First 10 games of the season he was shooting 50% from the field (90 attempts) and 45.7% on 3-pts (46 attempts). Only twice in the first 10 games did he exceed 5 three-point attempts in a game. Since then, he's done it 9 times. And in the past ten games he's exceeded 5 three-point attempts 6 times. He's still taking around the same number of shots per game, but the number of 3-pt attempts continues to go up. Last 10 games: 86 FG attempts at 38.4%. 60 3-pt attempts at 36.7%.
Green has never been a guy who gets to the line a lot, but even still, he's only attempted 2 free throws in the past 12 games. He's not a great finisher at the rim, but he's still athletic enough to get to the rim and draw contact. He's also a solid mid-range shooter, so it's not like he's just a one-trick pony with a broken trick. Maybe Pop wants him throwing up 7-10 threes per game. And maybe it's just a shooting slump. But I think there are smarter ways for him to be involved in the offense.
He seems to be in a funk a lot these days. Let's face it. Danny Green is what he is and that is a marginal NBA player on his best night. He would not be starting on any other team much less a team trying to contend for a championship.
I don't think there is anything wrong with Green, he fills the two guard minutes that Manu can't. He also has become Popovich's whipping post(replacing Parker), taking some of the pressure off of his team mates. I do have a question about him. If the top teams in the Western Conference are the Thunder, Clippers, Grizzles, Lakers and Nuggets, how many minutes per game would Green average if he were on one of those teams? I know these other teams have different offensive schemes so brush that argument aside. Where would he fit?
You don't trade on a low, but on a high.
The Spurs are a 3pt shooting team, and they live and die by it. Danny Green is ok, he just missed some shots. Manu turned the ball over 4 times. I'm sure that had something to do with losing as well. Most NBA fans look at shooting percentage as the reason the team lost, but then they scoff at Mike D'Antoni's system because it doesn't put a focus on defense.
Relax Spurs fan, we know how this movie ends.
You cannot brush aside the central deciding factor.I don't think there is anything wrong with Green, he fills the two guard minutes that Manu can't. He also has become Popovich's whipping post(replacing Parker), taking some of the pressure off of his team mates. I do have a question about him. If the top teams in the Western Conference are the Thunder, Clippers, Grizzles, Lakers and Nuggets, how many minutes per game would Green average if he were on one of those teams?

Green is on a decent contract for his position and teams did show interest in him this summer. He is not just a system player despite what most of you think. He is an above average defender at his position and not to mention the SG position is already extremely weak in this league. Teams would show interest and in my opinion he should be moved, we have shooting guards falling out of our asses right now and we need another rim protector BADLY.
