If Danny isn't traded...

[exstatic]

how many all defensive 1st teams have Lebron and Kobe made? , 2014, Duncan didn't make any of the 3 teams. . That's when you had to know people voting on them s didn't watch games.

There are only two All Defensive teams, not three.

Stop digging.

I think that too sometimes, or that some just show up bc of the allowed bigotry, sexism, slurs, racism, political views that leak in, drug references, hoes, male hoes, antisocial behavior, internet bullying, etc, and there's humor too, since humor involves references to all of that at times here... there are some fans amidst a lot of ignorance and trolls....

Irony is that youre allowed to post....

Are you ing illiterate?

His defense was horrible enough to make ALL-DEFENSIVE SECOND TEAM. READ: He was one of the top 10 defenders in the league last year.

I watched every single game last season, and Green's defense was his only saving grace. I'll also trust the opinion of 123 NBA analysts and broadcasters over the opinion of some armchair coach on the internet.

If you want to go the analytics route, he finished 12th in Defensive Rating and 22nd in Defensive Win Shares out of all players in the league, which is a far cry from being horrible.

But keep trying to convince yourself you know what the you are talking about.

The amount of defensive give ups alone should have dq'd green. He made all d team because he was good in highlight reel stoppibg on fast breaks. Ill give him defensive instincts, but hes not nasty enough to make an all defensive team. I jave yet to see green show up a whole year like bowen. The latter took it personally. Todays nba all hugs and dap. Not what i want to see.

As I have already said multiple times, I will trust Green's analytical value and his rating among people who actually know what they are talking about over someone who can't even type a complete sentence correctly on a random internet message board.

The facts are that Green was a key piece of the #1 defensive team last year, and was voted as All-NBA Defense. I challenge you to find some evidence to the contrary other than your own misguided opinion.

Watch every game and see how he fights over a screen, or how he reacts when he gets beat off the dribble

It is a valid point that iso ball which came along with the signing of LMA has hurt Green's offensive game. The ball needs to move and then and only then do the Spurs have a chance at winning it all, again.

Crofl. Making excuses and blaming others for Danny's play. He has had PLENTY of wide open bricks. You people are ridiculous.

[mookie2001]

Well don't you see he averages 6 ppg because he's so super good at defense.

I am getting on your nerves without even trying then.

Danny Green is a horrible SG. THE END!!!

At some point, people would realize that Danny is getting old and isnt the same player he was in 2014.

Also, we saw him shot way better in 2016 playoffs with the same iso-offense than this last postseason.

Only 34 3P% in playoffs is just unacceptable for a 3-D guy.

This

The amount he shoots literally doesn't matter. His shot is broken and his trash 3p% shows it. The scrub should make every shot count if that's the only thing he brings offensively.

I'm also noticing his slurpers don't mention how many 3's he passes up to dribble and fumble the ball. There literally has to be 6-8ft of wide open space for his scary ass to shoot nowadays.

And, again, who has Danny shut down? Is his mythical defense worth playing 4 on 5 on offense?

[dbestpro]

Don't see what the big deal is. Gay will start at SF and Leonard at SG. Green will be known as one the better defensive role players in the league coming off the bench. I don't like Green starting either, but I really like him coming off the bench when the defense needs a boost.

More likely Rudy Gay starts at the 4 or backs-up Kawhi than your silly idea.

Most of the time it makes sense to start your best defensive players and then bring offense of the bench.

Too bad Danny Green plays popcorn defense.

[duncan2k5]

Kawhi at SG and Gay at SF will be a PROBLEM defensively for the league

[TheGreatYacht]

If we're being honest, Green gives up more open 3's than he gets us....

[eric365]

Green's value was to defend greats PG while tony or patty was hiding on the SG
It's not possible anymore to hide our PG with the GSW warriors lineup or the CP3 / Harden combo

I'd rather have a decent PG with size than Danny at this point

[Big Empty]

I'd be highly surprised if someone traded for Danny. If they do that GM needs to be fired ha ha
