    Green is a streaky shooter. Opposing teams would be dumb to not keep an eye on him. He's perfectly capable of making 7 three point shots in a game. I feel a shooting streak is due.

    My memory could be off, but didn't he have his struggles, during last reg season? ...most seemed to get down on him, and then he played great in the playoffs.

    now you know why I call him 1 trick pony. His shot is off and he's pretty much a no trick pony running around the court.

    Everyone claiming that Danny doesn't play defense has obviously forgotten about the Finley/Udoka/Jefferson days.

    sure he plays D. Otherwise he'd have been released from the team long ago.

    although lately even his D has been mediocre to crappy

    Did the last game slip your mind? Green's the only reason why the lack of shot-blocking bigs on the team isn't as obvious. He and Duncan do the work of a normal set of bigs. Don't confuse losing gambles on D with making mistakes.

    Green's D is not up to par. I think its because adjusting to his reduction in minutes, being tired or even because his offensive game is off. But green is out of sorts on both sides of the court IMO

    I agree that he was absolutely bonkers to start the year. His lack of rest really does show up in his D, but he's still been elite on that end. He definitely should have been in instead of Beli versus the Raptors.

    true. green was possibly our MVP along with duncan when Parker and Kawhi were out.

    I just hope the reduction in minutes and role does not mess with his game longterm

    oh and disagree about the Toronto game, we were shooting 33% we needed someone who could get buckets. Ferrari was shooting 65% while Green in the 20%s

    I'm talking about the last two minutes where the Raps consistently went at Beli. He was an automatic two points for them, which more than negates any shooting he would have provided in that span.

    I also don't think Green's losing minutes due to his play; he's just going back to his normal role with Parker and Beli back.

    You do realize the Spurs played fine defense in that game, right? Everyone except Beli down the stretch. What's 65 percent shooting if you allow 100 percent on the other end?

    except it's not 100% "on the other end" smh you make it seem like the other Spurs were playing a lick of D

    let's just agree to disagree. Pop needed offense in that instance. I agree 120% with Pop's logic.

    The Spurs had a lead with their bad percentages. They gave up three straight baskets due to the Raps attacking Beli. Marco is not usually THAT bad on D, but he was in that game.

    Pop didn't lose the game from going with Beli over Green. He lost it by benching Joseph in the second half.

    I'm sure we gave up many baskets (87 points worth) on other spurs players. you play the hand that's dealt.

    we lost because we shot 30%. plain and simple. Shoot 30% in a game and not even 2 prime Duncans + 3 prime Bowens will get you a W.

    Yeah, because it's not like the Spurs were in the game until the last minute or anything.
