You do know how hard it is to break that record right? That record will be out of reach for a LONG time
I want the Spurs to wrap this up in game 6.
But a small selfish part of me wants this to go 7 games so Danny could put that record out of reach.
Of course Danny would be the first to tell you the record doesn't matter, and all he cares about is that trophy.

remember how automatic Jaren Jackson felt? Bowen? Not a ing candle compared to DG.
He's really starting to get media respect. He has a chance if he has a big closeout game (Tuesday or Thursday). Another 20-point outing would be about what he needs. His defense on James and Wade is also getting notice. If anything, he's much more likely than Leonard to get the award now.
Mad props and congratulations to Danny Green. Finals 3pt shot record, with at least one game to go!
This board just overreacts both ways when it comes to Green.
That, as much as any of the 3 pointers, was my favorite DG play of the night.
So, Jackson's sitting at home watching Green and Manu in Game 5, and he thinks "Hmmm....maybe Pop was right..."
Pretty much, yes.
Green could score 40 with 10 3's and lead the spurs to the championship and there'd still be that same group of buttmunchers on spurstalk saying he doesn't deserve it.
ESPN apparently believes the Spur draining crazy 3's in the Finals is the guy who used to play for OKC:

Danny Green's shot chart through 5 games. He is PERFECT from the left wing. Green Arrow mode.

His transition D continues to amaze me.
He has screwed with Lebrons and dwade on the break.
He seems t know exactly what they are going to do.
Heh...I just watched that...thanks for posting it!![]()
Watching Spoelstra's reactions on the heat bench in game 3 had me laughing so hard I could barely breathe.
First 3: Spo: Can't see him..
Second 3: Spo: Squatting with a wistful instense look that says "I'm into this", as Green rears up for his shot, Spo immediately rises out of his squat, ball goes through, he clearly doubletakes as if to say "Are you effing serious???". Shoots a dagger glare back at Green. Places hands on hips.
Third 3: Spo: Now simply standing with hands on hips, disgusted look.. Green cuts toward Spo in his corner, Spo flinches in fear, ball rotates to Green, BANG! As the shot goes through, Green falls backward (probably fouled) and Spo steps backward as if being repelled by Green's proximity. Looks to be visibly afraid of Green.
Fourth 3: Spo: Now sitting shoulders hunched forward, hands clasped together. Dulled/muted expression to his face. Doesn't flinch this time as Green drains yet another. As Green heads back on defense, its as if Spo has one last surge of electricity foment through his body which causes his head to swivel whip Green another icy dagger look. Kind of reminded me of Linda Blair in 'The Exorcist'...
Fifth 3: Spo: Same position with shoulders hunched forward but slighly slouching in seat, hands clasped but now pointing toward the floor almost in defeat. As Green knocks in #5, there is no flinch, no head whip, just what appears to be a slight nodding of the head as if to say "Yah, ya, ya..".
Sixth 3: Spo: Now slouching back quite a bit in seat, arms folded together defiantly, no movement except eyes watching the ball go up and through for Green's 6th...
7th 3: Spo: Still in slouch position in his seat (which looks funny as next to the tall guy sitting next to him), still little to no expressions or flinching on Green's 7th, trying to appear calm but hands rubbing together as if they have just developed an acute case of tourette's.

ESPN @espn
Apparently Danny Green just hit another three…
@ Ray Allen's facial expression
He only needs to make three more 3's to tie the record for most ever made in ANY playoff series.

Some records go Gold, others Platinum, and on rare occasions, records go Green!!!
Greatest extended clutch shooting performance ever. It cannot even be debated, the guy shattered the 3 pointers made record for the Finals in only 5 games and is doing it on like 70% shooting.
When you step 5 feet out past the NBA arc and drain them pure on the world's biggest stage, you are making a ing statement. Props to him, amazing performance.
"I don't care how many shots you miss. I don't care how many shots you take. You gotta be ready."
