This becomes one situation in which Danny's shooting struggles can be a real problem. The Spurs pretty much need Green's defense to stand a chance against the Warriors, but if he's not making shots and can't demand at least a small amount of attention from the defense, he might bog down the offense (by allowing GST to use their versatile guys to roam and clog passing lanes). Since you're unlikely to be able to beat GST (particularly at Oracle) without finding ways to score the ball, if Green's struggles make your offense easier to defend, whatever he might give you defensively might not be enough to balance out.
