Diagnosing Danny Green?

[ChumpDumper]

- Aldridge post ups result in ty Green Looks
- Passing up semi open shots to dribble
-Trying to create baskets from the dribble
-Should try to play minimal amount of minutes with Aldridge.

My concern about him regressing if he tries too much was correct. Chinook was getting al angsty about it but you can see that he cant play a bigger role because it kills his game. Someone gotta tell him to throw it to leonard or Parker when he has the ball and its not open.

Dont pass it to Aldridge because he gets ty looks from Aldridge post ups.

Vanilla player hater post.

With Kawhi shooting more and LMA taking more shots than Splitter used to, it's not too surprising that Danny's role on offense is shrinking a little. One good sign is his 3PT% has been back to normal for the past 10 games @ 21-48 for 43.75%...

Spurs Fan should have the same expectation with Danny Green as they had for Bruce Bowen.

Any 3 point shot by Bowen was just gravy.

They are pretty close. Danny traditionally accounts for a bit more of the Spurs offense (some back of the napkin calculations), but not by much. Last year he definitely played the biggest role offensively, making up over 10% of the Spurs's points.

Bruce Bowen % of Team Points:
2003-2004: 7.5%
2004-2005: 8.5%
2005-2006: 7.8%
2006-2007: 6.3%

Danny Green % of Team Points:
2011-2012: 8.8%
2012-2013: 10.2%
2013-2014: 8.6%
2014-2015: 11.3%

Danny made Korver disappear last night and he's shooting 39.6% from beyond the arc in the last 10 games after shooting 22% in the first 7 games. Danny putting the ball on the floor is ugly, but the 3 and D are fine.

Regardless if he's shooting well or not, he won't be left open. He'll pull whatever defender out to the perimeter with him, and the defensive pairing with Kawhi on the opposite end makes up for the offensive inconsistencies that have more to do with the rest of the starting 5 than him (imo). Especially with TP being a defensive liability against the PG-loaded WC.

Hate seeing him dribble and attempt to play outside his ability though. And those plays look so ty that I think it's easy to magnify them over the good that he brings to the table.

He sucks. He got paid and does care about basketball anymore

When Bowen was around, nobody had any expectation that he would contribute to offense. We were more than thrilled that he would make those 3's. I think the same kind of expectation is fair for Green. Green isn't going to force a shot if he's covered. This could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on the situation.
