Is $4M per year.
People forget just how great of a defender Green is against PG's, trade him and the PG's of the west will ing rape SA. Green was the guy shutting down Jack/Curry, the guy giving CP3 , I think he may have even guarded Westbrook last year.
Trading Green would be a huge mistake, if it wasn't for Green SA would've lost the GS series, as soon as Pop put Green on Curry he immediately shut him down, holding him to something like 2-19. Leonard is great at guarding big SF's and SG's, however he doesn't really have the speed to guard PG's and combo guards.
Is $4M per year.
That would be sad for Marco.
This has nothing to do with this post at all, but I still remember about 10 years ago when we used to argue about Baron Davis and Tony Parker. You thought I was an abo e moron thinking Parker was going to have a better career than Davis. Good times.
Green isn't going anywhere - he's been baptized by fire - great Finals experience after disappointing WCF last year. He learnt his lessons and improved. I hope he takes the great disappointment he showed in his locker room interview after game 7 to heart, improves on his ball-handling/mid-range. Still time to get a big contract after this contract's up.
Besides, why would you want to halve the athleticism and youth on the Spurs' perimeter.
oops, wasn't really paying attention. he's still playing beyond his contract value
Strike now...... George Hill trade showed us the way people. Never get fixated with role players=dime a dozen!!! Stars come few and far between(even the potential).
I can't see a realistic trade target that improves our chances to win a championship in the next 2 years.
Danny Green's contract is a bargain for his value. He plays good defense in addition to being a lights out shooter and he's only 25. Manu's a washed-up TOSB that's going to be 37 at the end of next season. He's slow, not a good defender, and has been anti-clutch the past two seasons. He can't play more than 20 mins a game and he no longer has the ability to elevate his game in the playoffs. The fact that he struggles with making open threes is also worrisome. Spurs need the spacing that Danny Green provides.
That's the point, I think. Lots of guys might be worth trading if you can get the right package in return. Danny is one of those guys.
Unlike with Patty Mills, Nando, Bonner, etc., there's a possibility that we could get back someone worth getting back. If there's not, then a trade would obviously be pointless.
This.. nobody on the radar that gives us equal value back, learns system and improves position.
I think it was more along the lines of who was better at the time. I didn't expect Tony to become this good but I was one of the few people arguing that he could be the main player to build the team around. Tony definitely has had a better career though.
I can't think of one either, and the Spurs may not have any intention of trading Green at all. But between Belinelli and all the talk about Morrow and then back to Neal, the Spurs sure are making the moves that you would need to make if you were going to move Green out.
Yeah I'm honestly unsure of the target. You don't have to get a great SF though. A combination of picks would be good too.
I'm not even a big Danny Green fan, but I don't see the point of trading him with his current deal, tbh..
How many guys in the NBA are 40%+ 3-point shooters that play good defense, tbh?..Lebron, Thabo, maybe Iman Shumpert..there aren't many, tbh..
Inexplicable how you can't be a fan of DG.
But yeah, at this point I just wish we had signed him for more years.
Extension next year
I don't do a lot of posting anymore. Mostly I lurk for news and whatnot. But I have to say...either you're a troll, or you're an idiot, based on your 730 posts on this site. Your all star team would get blown out by the Sacramento Kings summer league roster. I really don't think anyone would actually believe what you say you believe...so I'm going to assume you're a troll.
Can't extend a player on a three-year deal. Had the Spurs signed him to a four-year deal, they could have extended him in 2015-2016.
No chance of Charlotte agreeing to that.
Well, it is MJ. Miniscule chance at best.
As chinook just mentioned, they can't. Even if they could, I doubt they would. They're setting themselves up to be able to offer up a max contract to some free agent in 2015. They don't want Green eating into potential capspace.
Kevin Love/Roy Hibbert?
mmm, trade Danny Green and parts into Josh Smith
Love would certainly be a target. Not sure about Hibbert though since Splitter would still be around.
Brook Lopez and Lamarcus Aldridge will also be FA's that offseason....
