Danny Green " I wanted to win for Manu and Tim my two best teammates ever"

[BD24]

god damn Dabom going full meltdown. Was typing so furiously he kept misspelling and turning on the caps lock.

[Spurtacular]

I wish someone would post that post game interview on YT, tbh.

[Spurtacular]

Why did he leave out Parker? You would think he'd include him since he was part of the big 3...

Serious..

Why would danny green do that?

You're slippin' brah. Took you how many months to post this?

[wildcardX]

I can see the hate brewing between Green and Parker.


Tony telling Green to "Get the off my court".


Green wants to arm wrestle for the ball


Cheap shot to the back of the head


With Splitter's help, another cheap shot to the back of the head takes Tony out of the game


Ok now it's on! Tony is tired of taking Green's and tries to grapple him.

[Chinook]

These people aren't even worth your time...

I'm sure Spoelstra saw Parker's comments and a light bulb came on over his head. "Now we need to start guarding the guy who is killing us."

It's just all part of the Anti-Parker agenda...some people are just stuck on stupid.

I think the turning moment for Green is when they told him on that NBA TV interview that he had just broken the record. I looked at his face when he heard it and said to myself, "He's done." You could tell him was totally tunnel-visioning it until then.

Damn it Chinook, you're subtle enough to be sarcastic here but you pay enough attention to detail to make this sound plausible.

I don't know why, but I believe every word Chinook says.

If he says that Green had tunnel-vision...then he had tunnel-vision.

He's good with facts. The waters are a bit choppy once he ventures into opinions.

Seem like a tabloid magazine trying to brew up intrigue between members of a family.

I'm actually being serious. Green has on a few occasions gone out of his way to avoid praise. This off-season's "I took what I was worth" is just the latest in the line.

From USA Today about his defense in the 2013 WCSF:

OAKLAND – Danny Green was leaving the visitors locker room at Oracle Arena late Friday night when a reporter was hoping to pass along some well-deserved praise.
"You see those numbers when you're guarding (Golden State guard) Steph (Curry)?" the man said to the San Antonio Spurs guard.
"Nope, and I'd rather not, but thanks," he said with a smile before heading for the exits.

You know Green was avoiding talk about his performance in that year's Finals like the plague. I don't know if it's a focus issue or about keeping a chip on his shoulder or what, but Danny doing that national interview really hurt him that series, I think. He was unquestioningly the star, so he couldn't do the usual pass-off. Frankly, I think he's glad that Parker's there to take shots and credit for him. He's glad that Kawhi and LMA are there for that same reason. Seems like an interesting dude. One of the most media-friendly American Spurs about off-the-court stuff, but perhaps the most understated Spur about his own on-the-court stuff.

Whereas you have proven to be the opposite.

[Kikoluna]

Parker has aways been the annoying, arrogant, still thinks it's 2005 demeanor. Manu realized the long cool hair was gone and gave the throne to leonard. Tim is just a freak of nature who is always slim and fit and still the man. As for tony, well, he's always fatter

[hater]

Lol revisionist history. We lost in 2013 because Evita joined the Heat organization mid series. It was the biggest betrayal in Sports history.

This might explain why Danny left a significant amount of money on the table to stay with the Spurs. He is obviously comfortable here, and may not have wanted to be a #2 option on a worse team, even for more money.

He's pretty smart. Right now, he's 5th all time in playoff 3G% (42.9), and has more takes and makes than anyone else in the top 5. If the Spurs make 2 Finals runs and 2 second round exits, that could be about 60 playoff games over the life of his contract. He could vault from the 34th in made playoff 3P well into the top 10. He has such a high take AND make rate that he just needs playoff games to inevitably climb that ladder.

When you search for the quote in the le, all you get is links to this thread.

If it's a paraphrase, don't use quotation marks.

Applesauce makes up quotes like Kool does downstairs.

Both are pretty much worthless when it comes to basketball.

The quote is from right after the Game 7 vs LAC. It was broadcast live. I heard it once or twice but haven't been able to find it on YT. To the best of my memory, DG did lament not winning for Tim and Manu while leaving Parker out. I didn't make any special note of Parker being left out cos I'm not a Parker vs. Kawhi troll. Manu and Tim frankly are better teammates though. I think the quote reflects that reality.
