Someone photo shop green on a 3 dollar bill please.
I've never started a thread on this board before. I thought I'd start one about my boy Danny. He's shooting 70% from 3pt range in the NBA Finals, and averaging 18.7 points per game.
In case you didn't know those of us back in Tar Heel land simply refer to him as DMFG, which is short for what I typed in the le.

I'm going to start a movement to get the Spurs to play "Jump Around" before tip off
Hittin' the 3, givin' em the D.
He and Neal looked like Curry/Thompson tonight. Committed murder.
My ...always believed on the dude. But he was ing fearless tonight. Mad props. What else can you say?![]()
For a moment, this is how i felt
http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/mia...ame-3-at-spurs
"Green is your leading scorer in the Finals after three games. ...That slap you hear is every GM in the league palming their face for not believing in him."
If he keeps on making those 3s, I will forgive his performance last year...
Well then I guess he'll just have to keep making those 3's.
he's the one spur who's been consistent in this series.
Did you see his postgame presser?
He sat down and said "Suuuuuuuuuuup."
Every Spurs championship run, some role player has stepped up in a major way. Appears it is Danny's year. MF kudos to DG
"We've got a lot of foreigners on the team."
LMFAO
Plus the following:
Neal with the fearless shooting
Tiago with the good defense, and having an extra body in the post
Leonard with the leonine defense and versatility and all-around play
He deservs to raw dog every hot silver dancer tonight....tbh.
DG, doin' it big in the Finals. Who the woulda thought?
2 more games baby. Don't let this be meaningless.
Danny Green may be a legit candidate for Finals MVP should the Spurs win.
Really, is there any Spur who has contributed more in this series up to this point? Other than Kawhi Leonard.
First Steve Kerr, then Robert Horry...
Damn it, people need to stop saying that. Leonard's played great defense on James, but he's not the star (even defensively) that people are making him out to be. Save a few moments tonight, he's actually been pretty bad on team defense, and he gets a lot of help on James. I love his rebounding, but his lack of consistent scoring and strong team defense put him at a pretty distant second to Green as far as series impact so far.
Not only is Green doing work on offense, but I actually like the way he's playing James more than the way Leonard is. I don't think Kawhi's gotten into James' head, but I do think Danny has. He's made about a dozen incredible plays when matched-up one on one with Lebron, and I don't think James can get his head around that. He still sees Green as the player who got cut after one season with Cleveland, who never played when Lebron was there, even though the guard rotation there left a lot to be desired. You could tell that in Game 1 when you saw how he looked at Green when matched up with him in the post. When Green blocked James' attempt to force a jump ball, Lebron pointed to Danny as if to say, "I'm jumping against him? This'll be easy." Then James tipped the ball out of bounds. Save two moments, Green has really had James' number, and I think that's disconcerting for him. You can even see it in how he pushes Green around in the post now compared to in Game 1.
Bill Walton said in Game 6 of the 2003 WCSF against the Lakers that Duncan proved he was the MVP by taking on Shaq. He said that other players could look at their men and say, "If Duncan can take Shaq, I can take this guy." That's what being the most valuable player is all about. Green so far in the series has shown the Spurs that he can take Lebron on both ends. If that's not worthy of the MVP, I don't know what is.
