If I wanted to stop someone i would put in Green if I wanted to hit a three I would have put in Mills or Neal.
This is what I don't understand...how is he the new RJ? RJ would float around and do game after game...show no aggressiveness, no fire or anything. RJ had the talent but not the heart. Green atleast puts in the effort and helps out on the boards and defense. He is nothing like RJ.

Damn...alot hate on Danny Green in here right now huh? To be fair, I don't think the Spurs could trade him or pick up anybody that would give the team a better shot at winning than he does. He's a role player, nothing more...nothing less. He'll have nights like the one in Charlotte where he went off with 6 or 7 threes, and then he'll have nights like tonight where he goes 1-5 or whatever it was. But we've seen that he CAN have some pretty damn good moments. For example the game winner against the Lakers In LA, and the defense/steal against Lin in Houston. He'll be fine. He might not hit 6 or 7 threes again in a game, but he'll be decent, which is all we can expect from the guy....
I just don't understand why he is in the game in crucial moments.
On the offense end, I have no idea. Especially on a night when he was cold. I'm cool with Green out there on the defensive end to get a stop, but not on the offensive end. Pop clearly should have gone with Jackson or Neal there...
He has nothing to do in the game when there is to be or not to be situation. I was pissed when I saw him in the game at the end of 4Q and even more pissed when he missed 2 shots and when he almost lost the ball due to his bad ball handling.
Burnt Kirby pretty good earlier in the season for the game winner
He's limited on offense. His defense seems to be fading. The Spurs as a whole seem to be fading. Hopefully they snap out of it
But this is very true.
He got his contract
spurs should just cut him and sign a bunch of 10 day contract players tbh
you know they will hustle
and all they have to do is hit 3s at 40% from the corners
How many damn Green threads does there need to be? This has been talked about ad nauseam unless posters get a thrill out of recycling the same questions over and over again.
bring him back to ur garbage ass cavaliers team
A streak shooter is all this guy is. Wouldn't be averse to dealing him. Anyone else we can get for this guy?
If you died in a car crash, I honestly think no one would care. F you.
There's no trophy for second place whether you win 5 games or 60 games. The end result is the same. Some teams bow out earlier than others. As far as Green is concerned, if you were even the least bit resourceful, you'd know that Cleveland waived him so why would they want to take him back? He gives a floundering franchise virtually zero forward momentum as the Cavs are content with building for the future. He's only got a job in the NBA because he found a team willing to accept his flaws and can cover up his many mistakes with the depth of the roster. He's only good at one thing, only about half the time. The only thing that puts him above d-league level is his seasoning and experience. In SA's case, better to go with experience than tackling the unknown.
At the moment i think the cavaliers could use anyones garbage on their roster after being blown out by the Lakers. and building for the future?? the cavaliers had varejao and Lbj a decent team and still couldnt win a championship. Basically you guys rebuilt and still fell short now noone wants to go there.if you guys cant win with LBJ or rebuild around him hate to say it but you all "suck". what u guys should realize is a lot has to do with the bad fo and coaching..my suggestion is find a new team, i heard seattles gotta new team brewing. so instead lurking around sc wishing for a team you dont have keep your two cents to urself.
First of all, I don't play for the Cavs so it's not "you" all suck. Second of all, saying LBJ and Varejao sucked because they couldn't win a championship is like saying the Spurs sucked in the 90's because they couldn't win a championship with the admiral and Elliott. I don't what kind of player yo think Varejao is, but he's not a game changer and he certainly wasn't the player then that he is now.
As for the LBJ era, they had Lebron and a bunch of scrubby role players. Mo Williams, not Varejao was their second best player on the team. Make no mistake about it, Lebron carried that team on his back and he had very little help along the way. If Duncan didn't have the likes of Robinson, Ginobili, Parker and Bowen on his roster, Duncan wouldn't have didley. Now would be a good time to get off your high horse because in 4 or 5 years, the Spurs will be in the same situation as the Cavs are currently.
Green does have significant trade value, he's pretty young and has a great stroke and has potential on D, and obviously he got better since his cavs days.
No, we don't need him and we could use a PF, we're better off trading him, and he's not viewed as the scrub you make him out to be, don't get me wrong I don't like his game, but plenty of teams would be interested, maybe even the Cavs.
Green for Irving, you say? Done!
To all the geniuses in this thread: Who do we trade Green for? He makes $3 mil this season. What are we going to get back in value that's even close to that?
I don't understand what is up with his D, sometimes it is so awesome it makes you stand up and scream, sometimes it just sucks balls..
Inconsistency is maddening, and the Spurs have alot of them... Neal, Green, Diaw are the three that come to mind. Even Kawhi. This is why they are such 'bargains.'
In all honesty you guys should be grateful for Green. He could have probably signed somewhere else for more but chose to be underpaid since the Spurs gave him a chance.
