Is Green really an above average defender? Is he an average defener at all? Even a one legged Nash can run past him at ease. He just doesn't keep anybody in front of him.

If Green does not get his together for these playoffs he needs to be kicked to the curb.
tbh I was right on point, he was playing like the 6th best player but really belongs in the 4th position. I still believe TP, TD and Kawhi should play better than Manu for Spurs to be our best. But noone else.
Props to Pop for finding just the right amount of minutes for Manu.
And I been saying Green is a one trick pony just like Neal. Hater with the damn goods![]()
Neal can at least create his own shot, it's not always a good shot, but it's better than what Danny is doing.
Im not going to say that Green is playing well, but I think that Green's bad performance has 2 reason:
1) Himself
2) Teams make adjustments.
Everybody is always talking about how good the Spurs are from the 3pt range. Green is one of our best shooters, so is normal that teams adjust, leaving space for other players to do their thing.
He didnt had a good game yesterday, but its not like he missed open looks all night. He only shoot 1 3 pointer.
Im not saying he is the GOAT, but I think teams are adjusting.
Now, if he could start makeing thos mid range jumpers and layups....
I think Pop has found his new Bonner. We just have to wait 6 years for Green to have a good playoff series.
I saw DG run a pick and roll with Splitter. I'm not sure why he didn't get counted for the assist.
He's not just collapsing offensively, but defensively he bites on every single pump fake and just cannot seem to rotate onto shooters.
Green will continue to be mostly useless until he develops his game past being a mere spot-up shooter.
FunnyBut I don't hate on Green, he is what he is.
Jackson would have been more valuable![]()
Greens not a momentum changer like Ginobili but will feed off it and that would be awesome so STOP LAUGHING!!
Green is ing terrible. If there is any one player (who received minutes) outside the big 3 responsible for our collapse vs OKC last season, it's Green's sorry bricking ass.
Funny, Green was an all-around player at UNC but is just a 3 point specialist in SA. I'd trust Bonner making shots off the dribble more now, tbh.
At least some people realize that Green is basically a scrub who's only NBA skill is hitting WIDE open 3's... and he's even extremely streaky when it comes to that.
at the fact some of the people who defend him are the ones that will kill Bonner and Neal.
This thread needs to be wiped from the internet. Tbh...
Green plays decent defense and I think his shot will come back. He needs to get to the rim better and agree he is too one dimensional. To win a le I think we will need him to do more so let's hope it turns around for him.
Manu was honestly playing a lot worse than Danny Green 4 weeks ago. Nothing funny about this topic in retrospect. All we can do is hope he doesn't regress back to that useless level again in the next month or so.
i was joking when i made the thread...this was around the time Manu was the punching bag of Spurstalk.
I was partly wrong about Manu, too, tbh..
I bumped this thread re: Danny Green comments, rather than Ginobili, tbh..the delusion of die-hard Green fans(not necessarily the OP, but the posters vehemently arguing in his favor in this thread)..
