Danny F*in Green

[BatManu20]

I'm shocked at how great his defense has been. Mad props to Green for the D. Now he has to maintain it though.

[superjames1992]

Yeah, all the Green haters can pack up their bags and go to .

[timtonymanu]

Props, tbh.

Things are alot easier for the Spurs if Green can contain Curry.

[weebo]

Props to KL for locking down Thompson...came crashing back down

[blkroadrunners]

CoJo, Green, and Leonard were all great containing the dubs wing players tonight

[Paulie]

Seriously before Curry hurt his ankle, Curry just looked scared of Danny Green. The fittest of the survival, tbh

[ezau]

Six. He's given up six points TOTAL to Curry in this series.

If that's not domination, I don't know what is.

Wow!

[capek]

Much better D this game from our wings. Danny has done a great job on Curry this series; very happy for him that he's been so successful.

[ezau]

Curry's ankles didn't hold up with Green's defense. Damn.

[SPurs206]

Richard jefferson with defense. He can't create anything on his own .

Not a good comparison, in my opinion. RJ could finish well, while Green is a better shooter. Plus, I don't know if Jefferson ever made a clutch play in the post-season.

curry wants to shoot 3s and green's not letting him. now if the refs called at least half of those illegal picks, they wouldnt' have a chance.

[Brunodf]

Another great game on D.

[KenziE]

The 3 he hit when then Dubs cut it down to 1 was the biggest shot of the game tbh.

That scrub finally showing up. I'm one of the posters here who s on this dude, but major props.

[Chinook]

This is what I said in the prediction thread:

This should be Danny Green's best series. The Warriors are a pretty small team with three-point shooters and a point-guard with a gimpy ankle. Green will be called on to defend most if not all of their prominent perimeter players, and him sinking threes would really help Duncan and Parker.

Simply put, everything is set up for Green to come up big in this series. If he plays the way he did against the Clippers last year, he'll be the fourth-most-important player for the Spurs. I expect him to step up, but that's all on him.

I'm glad to see Green delivering so far.

What was the exact FG of Curry when Green was on him? Any stats?

[SPurs206]

I'm talking about Nets Rj not SAS Rj

2-19 with Green on him.

Might be more because is stopped counting in the 4th. Definitely not more made shots, though.

[SPurs206]

Corey Joseph's D on Jack was awesome. He Jacked him up lol

[Chinook]

Me too. Same differences hold. In his prime, Jefferson was one of the best finishers in the game, but he only became a good shooter in his second season with the Spurs. Even then, he wasn't as good as Green is now. NJ Jefferson could also carry a team much more than Green can.

[Old School 44]

Props to Danny. Almost makes me want to dance!

[Biggems]

Absolutely. I noticed ESPN pointed that out in the fourth. I haven't had issue with Danny's defense but obviously it was overlooked in Games 1 and 2 since Curry faced multiple defenders and got his points. I thought Green - and the defense as a whole - made a spectacular turnaround tonight. Lesser teams would have folded after Games 1 and 2. Spurs answered big time.

IMO the real culprit to the game 2 loss was all the missed close range shots (many by Leonard), all the missed FTs (many by Leonard), and the team missing so many open jumpers (Green missed 3 wide open 3s in the span of 20 seconds).......also, Thompson was absolutely lights out, everything he threw up seemed to go in.

[tim_duncan_fan]

yeah, Danny Green!

[crc21209]

Danny Green was absolutely amazing tonight. He moved his feet and stayed in front of his man (usually Curry) at all times. It was awesome to watch. Big props to DG..
