Danny Green's defense :wow

[Johnny RIngo]

Danny & Duncan patiently carried the Spurs in the early months of this season ..while the other Spurs were recuperating injuries. .

How many steals he has tonight..3? That was so impt. Completely broke Clipper's drives

You forgot Manu. Averaged 15 ppg in December.

Danny Green will come back next year at 7 million a year

He'll get 9 per from the Spurs IMO..

They paid Bonner to tour the country and eat sandwiches.

They paid Bonner $10 million a year? Bonner maxxed out at $4 million a year (for one year!) and that was for being a perfect cog in the Spurs system as a 3-pt sharpshooter.

Green was in the spotlight during the 2013 Finals but since then I'd say his reputation has lowered, hopefully to a point where he gets paid around $7-8 million a year. I don't remember teams overpaying perimeter defenders... Now of course if he plays a huge, visible role in the playoffs this year, it could make things a bit more complicated.

We looked after Danny and gave him a nice little contract last time. He has improved surprising very few people. When we sit back at the table I think he will remember the faith RC & Pop had.

Seems like a Spurs-lifer IMO..

He was pretty much the mouth piece for last year's le team, doing media tours..

same formula as the warriors. green on Curry and kawhi on klay

This. As apalisoc_9 mentioned, put Parker on Barnes and dare them to try and exploit it in the post. If they go at him, they can send Duncan if he tried to go into the middle of the lane.

Spurs have more than enough between the cap and luxury tax to resign both Green and Leonard and that would even after signing a max player. Only have 33 mil committed to salaries next season.

If they use move Mills and clear out a [and use] max contract, then they would likely go past the luxury tax. Leonard's max starts at $15.4 million ( i think) and Green will easily make more than $7.6 million ( his cap hold) probably starts out at $8-9 million. They would have at least $80 million the luxury tax is projected to be $81.6 million

I think nobody would be counting salaries if Spurs were going for 3peat.

that's not really an apal original... its exactly what we saw in 2013

Parker guard Curry most chunks of the first two games of this season. Green guarded both Barnes and Thompson Leonard did as well. In other words Pop hasn't really done that strategy consistently. Also a different offense and coaching staff. Jackson specifically went at Parker and Neal with Barnes and Jarret Jack to mixed results.

Oops.sorry Manu too.

The exploding salary cap would make the pain one year on the luxury tax.

It will be interesting what the Spurs do and how deep they dig.This is going to set the table for the ability to compete for the next 5-7 years and they only have to look at OKC to see what one bad money-saving trade can do to your ability to win a ring.
