    Or was it just a teaser?


    Green was 4-6 from 3-pt range for 14 points.

    Beli was 0-5 from 3-pt range for 4 points.

    I believe they're better in their old roles. But this isn't a large enough sample to prove that. It would be nice to see more data.

    Should have never lost it. There was no need to tweak the rotations...

    YES!

    I prefer Marco coming off the bench!

    Starting next to Tiago, Kawhi, and Tony on offense just doesn't open up for great shots.

    Helps when penetration is working, parker and an aggressive KL opened up that 3 point line

    You guys aren't fooling me, you don't care about Danny; you just want to be able to wear your Super Sub Brothers shirts again!

    I really prefer Marco coming of the bench. Green Needs parker to make wide open threes

    The switch is inevitable, Pop is just using this as a motivational tool, tbh..

    Green is known for his streak shooting, I wouldn't be surprised if he goes on a 3-point surge for a few weeks, it's the trend of his career with the Spurs, so far..

    Beli-Manu have great chemistry and are better suited to play against bench players, from a defensive standpoint, so breaking them up doesn't make sense to me..

    The Spurs need Green to heat up so they can trade his ass.

    Manu can create better opportunities for Green. With Parker and Bellinelli in the starting line-up, it gives the starters two creators (not including Splitter's good vision), and the bench two creators in Manu and King BD. It'll be good in the long run I believe.

    I don't think it was about gaining or losing that spot. I think it was more about rotation changes to experiment. Later in the season or even in the postseason it's possible they may be required to go to that so they need to know how that's going to work.

    Yeah I think it was just Pop being Pop, just tinkering and motivating Green at the same time.

    Pop: "I didn't bench (Green) because he wasn't making shots."

    Belinelli-for-Green lineup swap presented as chemistry experiment. Pop: "It could change again."


    Green unfazed by "demotion:" "They're trying out something new ... This is the time of year to do it."

    I agree. Better to try it now then try it later in the season with more at stake.

    I never understood how fans can think this way. It's like execs on other franchises don't know what we know. They don't realize that the dude just got hot so they bought him at a high price. Not going to happen. Spurs know it too. That's why Blair was shuffled out when he was basically a garden gnome.

    Toronto isn't a scrub team. They aren't a good team, but they are a dangerous one and they are playing good basketball right now. I'd not call them a scrub team.
