Green has been garbage so far this year. If he is not consistently hitting the 3, he is a Bonner-esque liability. Simmons can at least dribble at a high school level without keystone copping into turnovers.
I like Simmons ability to get the rim, draw fouls and create offense. Green should be a situational defender at best in this rotation.
Yes. Danny Green has completely and utterly the bed this season after getting paid a decent amount of money. Right now, it looks like we've overpaid for him. His offense ain't any better than Bowen's at this stage of the season and he's a worse defender than Bruce man on man, yet we're paying him over double what the Spurs paid Bowen. That's a ing insult to Bruce.
Simmons can get to the rim and he's a better passer than Danny. My goodness, Danny is a such a passer.
No. Green either figures it out or we are done.
Simmons would foul out in 1 quarter, tbh..they should probably start Kyle, though, do something to light a fire under Green like in 2014, I suppose..
If this is the real Green, then the Spurs aren't even close to a contender, unfortunately..
Green would probably play better with the bench seeing as it's more open and less dribble dribble, iso.
Then Manu and Tim should just retire now.
That's the way it looks, but he also needs more court time to see if he can correct his fouling on the defensive end. He's not going to get that experience sitting on the bench. Start him against the Lakers and see what happens.Simmons would foul out in 1 quarter, tbh

I keep thinking hes gonna come around but now hes passing up 3s driving and just fcking up
Yes, just for the fact that we wouldnt have to start off the game watching him stink up the joint being useless. I'm at a point where I can't stand watching him on the court now...he's THAT garbage! And I've always been a "Danny is severely underrated" guy but him being limited is REALLY being exposed.
If they're going to bench Green, starting Anderson is a no-brainer, he's much better than Simmons..
yep. literally making me rage. Like why would he think that is a good option? Boban has better handles than this .
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!
Danny never was a true starter.
It's unnerving, but I think Pop is just letting him figure it out. If there's a time to do it, it's now. He'll keep starting and hopefully he can regain his touch from downtown... a shot of confidence would work great for him.
Let's be real here...at this point its so bad that their are NO positive expectations or results when Danny touches the ball...think about that for a second when you can say that about a primary STARTING rotation player on a NIGHTLY!
Yes. I've said so for the last few games. Let Danny play with the second team until he finds his shot again.
DG sucks he is the new bad Porker, only wants uncontested shots looks like Matty B, Simmons at least is giving his all like Patty was vs TP a few seasons ago.
DG passing blows, his defense is totally overrated and his athletism sucks he looks like he has just finished a long masturbation marathon every time he is on court.
I'd give green 2-3 weeks off to get his brain back. His problems are all mental. Meanwhile Simmons gets time to develop and is better if Green is still a scrub when he returns.
i remember him going into the paint, late in the game, and he fumbled it and it went out of bounds off toronto
i remember feeling RELIEF at the outcome, like "that went better than i expected!"
lol. I thought the exact same thing on that play. I thought, wow, that turned out pretty good. Meanwhile, Danny was looking for the foul like he was a James Harden type of player and coming off like - I don't lose the ball unless I was fouled.
EXACTLY! A favorable result from Green is when it isn't a turnover fastbreak or a long rebound fastbreak for the other team off of one of his many season-long clankers. All for the hometown discount of 11 million a year smh
Trade Green tbh... dude is garbage now. If we do it now we might be able to get some kind of value out of it.
Ok. Enough with the madness. We are 18-5. 2nd place in league! Relax. Trading green is madness.
The bench plays a very chaotic style that involves a lot of passing and cutting and reads on defense by everybody and all 3 perimeter players put the ball on the floor, cut, relocate and screen for each other. Danny has been very poor in that setting. His decision making and increased desire to drive has had bad results with the bench, since Manu is already TO prone, and lately so has been Patty. Adding Danny to that lineup is like gasoline to the fire. It will look like the Wiz game, IMO.
Danny's better with the starters or should be, since they need his defense, and the spacing his 3 pt shooting provides. He is just putting the ball on the floor way too much with very bad results.
Simmons should be better off the bench, since his slashing, easy transition basket chase, his nice passing ability is best suited to the bench style.
Anderson could play with both units. He's unlikely to make mistakes and he's a nice passer, and an unselfish player. Would be perfect for the SL since they already have too many guys that need to be fed shots. He can't defend quickie guards which is Danny's task and there you have the catch 22.
Green is a torta eater.
