Not bad for a #46 draft pick who couldn't get off the bench on a crappy Cavs team. The Spurs have squeezed alot of lemonade out of that lemon.

$40,000,000 for a dried up lemon. Sad!
It's ing ed.
Front office must be really trying to find a way out of this....
Not really. FO is content, imo.
But, yeah, - as others have said - there are not very many better options on the team, but he is indeed a negative at this point.
Sad that a 40 year old Manu is still better than he is and STILL the go-to guy at the 2. But who didn't see this coming when they resigned Manu? Honestly, that's what madr me believe that the FO is content. They have yet to find a viable replacement for Manu/starter at the 2, and have barely found one for Parker in Murray. They're really running these guys into the ground.
Not sure if I should laugh or cry when people here keep saying this...
It's sad because I used to love his 3-D game but there were, are, and will be better options on offense than him....Guards, bigs, whatever.
Rockets signed Gordon for nothing, Pels w Boogie, Blazers w Nurkic...
Also, it could help if our backcourt multiple lineups of Patty/Danny, Patty/Manu, Manu/Simms, weren't that bad.
One is old af, other is losing his minutes because he isn't aggresive anymore....then you have Danny, who can't drive for
All this...without mentioning Parker. Imagine how bad it turns with him being net negative in playoffs
Can't wait to come back and quote all y'all.
He's a proven playoff performer, he'll show up.
He's still a pretty good defensive player when he wants to be.
As for his shot, I'm not as confident in it anymore. I cringe when he dribbles as nothing ever good seems to happen.
He has made some big shots when we needed him in the past though, and has shot and played very well three of the last four postseasons so I'm not losing complete hope.
I said a while back that he will be the one traded this summer if Spurs somehow have another second round exit than Lamarcus.
I think Pop needs to tell him
The next time you drive to the hole you will be unable to wear those sleeves on ur bowed legs for the rest of the season.
That will straighten him out.
The last few games Green has just pissed away the ball in important stretches of the game. He is not a playmaker, he should never be allowed to make a pass that's not swinging the ball.
He sits at 39.2% from 3 this year. Had he only made three(!) more of his 278 Long balls, he'd be at 40%. Sure, he's had better seasons from outside, but we don't need him to shoot lights out this RS to get that #1 seed.
I trust him to hit his shots in the Playoffs, just like last year, when he turned his icy 33% up to 50%. Granted, the sample size is only ten games, but he made 24/48 threes.
The game of basketball all starts with confidence. Period. Danny has extremely shaky confidence because even he knows his extreme limitations o
as a basketball player....
The worst part about it is he's terrible at basic fundamentals of basketball...passing or dribbling..he's like a high school skilled player when it comes to that stuff..
He's even extremely limited when it comes to shooting..can't shoot on the move or off the dribble..can't run him off screens etc. He's pretty much just a catch and shoot player..his balance and feet can be atrocious when it even comes to that.
But it all starts with confidence..Green knows he's not very good at anything at all really outside of playing Defense..but he still makes more mental errors than he should. 13' Finals was great performance but it's was 4 years ago and people need to stop hoping or holding on to that to grade him as a player..
It's frustrating because he has physical tools..just doesn't have the work ethic and desire to be great..

I agree. a SG that can score, dribble & drive and play decent D is what is needed this offseason. if Simmons wasa better shooter Id be interested in how that would play out but he cant shoot to save his life. Danny is too inconsistent.
Oh, the Spurs lost and suddenly everyone on the team sucks again?
This schtick got old a long time ago, SpursTalk.
Seriously. Green's been on the team for seven years now. The Spurs won a le with him and damned sure should have won a second one. Pretty sure that completely outweighs losing to Portland in March.
Better PG than Porker tbh
Spurs won a le with Splitter at starter. Doesn't mean he's no longer a TOSB that deserved to get traded.
It's not about losing to Portland...but you cannot deny his regression as a player. Hes just not an elite shooter like some make him out to be..
When it comes to "open" looks from 3 I'm more confident in Gasol, Mills, Kawhi, Parker (Corner) and probably Manu cause he has balls of steel.
I'm curious to see what the uncontested 3pt percentages are for the players tbh...
Difference is people weren't arguing that Tiago was too injured in 2014. They were arguing stupid like he was too soft.
: D-League can't dribble
First-world, regular-season problems.
So funny but sad, cause it's true.
