    Green's the real issue here:

    Against sub-.500 teams, his FG percentage is 45.3%. 3-Point percentage is 49.2%.

    Against .500 teams, his FG percentage drops to 39.3%. 3-Point percentage drops to 30.6%.

    Seems like the good teams are keying in on him after the Finals. Spurs have to do something about that since Danny's defense is legit but we can't afford to have a liability on offense either. I'd much rather roll with Danny and hope he figures something out since defense is more of a priority for me. Everything would be much easier if Parker was playing at an elite level this year but he's been pretty disappointing thus far.
    Good numbers, but it doesn't take into account how good teams have to play a step or 2 closer to Green to keep him from getting space. Miami did it and Duncan hammered them for 25 points in the 1st half of Game 6. They can't send a double off of Green. If the Spurs go small they can't send one off of Parker, or Manu either.

    That leaves Leonard, who would usually be in the opposite corner, who tends to shoot better from those areas. Green being on the floor doesn't affect the offense as negatively as people think. If he gets hot, it only impacts us positively.

    That sounds a lot like Parker, anyway about that Neal treatment I think Patty will do it better, it was painful to see Gary running the offense with no plan or idea whatsoever (Im talking about the playoffs, especially the Finals).
    That doesn't sound like Parker at all. Where do you come up with this garbage.

    It may not, yet it's still going to happen. End of story, no point on arguing about it.

    I think it depends on match ups. Against a team like OKC with large PGs, if we can't cross match up effectively, then obviously it becomes a problem. Whereas there are other teams that have standard sized PGs that he can match up with decently.

    My though is that they allow guys to be more physical in the playoffs. The ticky tack fouls that he gets for bodying up on people are less likely to be called as are the reach ins and attempts to steal the ball he makes. Dude fights over screens like a mna possessed but they haven't called that yet.

    Anyway Patty plays physical and the playoff rules will help him. Now he could get beat up but might mite has some moxie.

    Patty can't run an offense. He almost has to be out there with Manu or there is zero offensive continuity. He's basically a shooting guard trying to play point guard ( sound familiar? ). He won't go off in the playoffs like he has in the so-called meaningless reular season. He may be fast but a lot of times, he plays reckless and out of control. Half the time he's on the court, the team is just standing around watching Patty dribble around at the top of the key and firing up shots. This style of play isn't condcive to playoff basketball. You can't put him on shooting guards because they'll shoot over him and you can't put him on quicker pg's because they'll bkow by him. He's basically the bes of the worst and he'll get his minutes. But, since the playoffs are more defensive oriented and a war of attrition, it wouldn't surprise me to see him get the Gary Neal treatment.
    after careful consideration my reply is simple: bollocks!
    Patty showed he can run an offense in this years play. Sometimes the second unit has not been good at finishing...the bigger issue from this game was how poor the defence on the PNR was. the screens were good, but there was no help defence, with the second guy standing 8 feet from the play...you cannot do that against Rubio now he can shoot.

    Patty being a playoff fraud ... Not very surprising.

    His defense isn't a gross overreaction. It's been bad all season.

    Better defensive efficiency than Parker. His defense has been pretty bad tonight though.

    He and Paker were asked to go under the screen, which is exactly what they've been doing. No one expected Harris to actually make those threes.

    Look, it's no secret that I love defense first over offense, and if Patty doesn't at least play adequate defense to go along with decent offense, then the Spurs should consider on a game to game, or even quarter to quater basis about giving CoJo some minutes out there. I'm pretty sure CoJo will at least play solid defense. Patty has earned the minutes throughout the season though, so it's up to him to come back and play better next game.

    no. The ball movement goes dead when CoJo is on the court.

    The good news is after Mills' 2014 playoff non-performance the Spurs should be able to keep him around at minimum wage for a couple of years.
