    No such thing. Only first and second team all defense.
    Yeah, I was just thinking more like at least being in the running for second team that people would put him in a hypothetical third team.

    Or him shutting down Durant a couple games ago. However, all the analysts are giving the credit to Leonard and the scheme. Only mention of Green is in statement like, "Kawhi and Tony and Patty defended him. Green was there too." Dude's been the best Steph defender for like three or four years. Can't believe he's still such an afterthought, but I hope the Warriors do.
    It seems like the Dubs are based on the local interviews I'm seeing now. Curry brushed aside the notion that a single Spur gave him fits.

    Of course he's not going to admit it that he was flustered tonight but I saw enough in his body language tonight to see the Spurs bothered him. He didn't have his typical arrogance and dancing going on in this game. That's how I know he was frustrated.

    I think he knows too. Even in that first game, he wanted no part of Green. I think Pop saw that and pulled Danny. It's like Blake and Splitter.

    Straight up. Danny earns every bit of his contract and more in this matchup.

    This thread is dropping like a stone, and this is the last time I'll bump it in relation to this game. This kind of stuff is how people can forget how good Green is and pretend that Bowen had another gear. He didn't.
    Any ideas where I can find the Boris Diaw is expendable because of the emergence of Kyle Anderson thread?

    I imagine you could search for it pretty easily.

    Frankly if he didn't show up for this you really had to question his usefulness at all, bc he's been missing for most of the year, and its not like he showed up last time or against the Cavs. He's had too many no impact games where he appeared straight up lazy or done, it was hard to say. And it wasn't a Danny situation where he was missing shots or what not. It was worse bc he was coasting on D.

    It's possible his benching in several games was more Pop developing Anderson and needing to get time for him from somewhere, but that could only be known in retrospect. Probably a CIA Pop thing bc you had to assume Pop was being risky playing youngster Anderson over his vet with the game on the line.... Actually if that was the case I would have to assume that Pop is then indeed very invested in Anderson's development or it was a kick in the nuts for Boris. Either way it appeared CIA Pop

    Well yeah, that's Diaw's shtick. He only shows up for meaningful regular season and postseason games. The Cleveland game was an OCC game so I don't consider it to be a big game. He was garbage for stretches of last year's regular season but showed up in spades against the Clippers. I mean, even if Pop is/was trying to develop Kyle, did anyone really think he was going to get key minutes over Boris in the postseason? That's ludicrous.

    I agree, especially after tonight's game, he's even in the headline of USA Today's article on the game

    The marquee games are always the showcase for NBA awards/accolades..

    Not to mention Jimmy butler who IMO is a top 9-11 player in the league but overrated defensively has missed significant time...

    I can see Paul-Allen-Green-Bradley

    Bradley has had like multiple articles about him this year about his D not to mention NBA.com making noise out of him playing good D. Hes been inconsistent though. Maybe lowry..probably not.

    Good for danny...i know he was hurt last year when he didnt make the team hence the stupid complain on twitter and delete said twitter post he made last year.

    Butler missing lots of games seald the deal for him.

    I think he should be a first teamer this season though

    Despite the cancerous players the Spurs have, good to know Green is still around. Hopefully his shot comes around, but the guy is still so damn valuable.

    Definitely.
    Dude is a champion.
    Sour ending to this game but I was for sure glad to see Danny.

    8 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 4 steals, 1 block.

    I remember a time people wanted to trade him. Most have come to their senses now, but he's showing to be the only starter other than Kawhi that isn't one dimensional in the game.

    He was huge in the second half...it was his first game back, so i understand Pop seating him for Leonard in the 4th ( really should subbed out Anderson) but the second half was fantastic defense. If they can play that kind of defense, they should be fine.

    He looked great on D during the 2nd half(I missed the 1st half), but the Spurs are completely ed if he can't shoot 3s anymore, tbh..Green that can't shoot 3s is just a better version of Iman Shumpert, which isn't good enough for a team that needs him to be a top 3 player..

    His shot looked fine, just short. Didn't have his legs completely, but once he starts getting into game shape he'll be fine.

    Bump

    I don't want to jinx him, but that's two straight peak LDN games right there..hopefully he's fully back to 2014-15 season form..his shot is much cleaner than last year, and he's making far better decisions with the ball off the dribble-- the best I have seen him in that department...
