No. Injury prone and as noted above, his production has declined every year.

Yes, the Spurs have the greatest shooting coach in the world. Evans a consistent jump shot away from being an all star. His slashing ability is quite impressive. He's like a taller Tony Parker. Spurs can make a run at him in the free agency but he's restricted so it'll be even harder considering the Spurs' frugal nature.
No. But I really do like OJ Mayo honestly! The guy can attack and shoot lights out also. He just opted out of his Dallas contract. Any chance Spurs show interest? As much as I love Danny Green, OJ Mayo is an overall much better offensive player, maybe he would come off the bench with Manu to be our backup 2/3?
He averaged 15, 4, and 4 last season?. That's pretty good.. And that was on a terrible team. I think he'd be a much better player in the Spurs system surrounded by great talent. He's only 23 too.
Nope. I love Danny's defense more than anything. At least you can always count on that being there.
wtf @ people saying no? In a heartbeat tbh
It would take an offer.. I dont See the spurs offering any One in free agency more than what Parkers making unless Its Paul or Howard and thats very unlikely. If the spurs think Evans has 6th Man potential they might but WHO thinks hes a spur.
If they get a big Its because we lost splitter, but If we can keep him than that money spells a combo guard that can handle and score ideally. Like a Jarret jack or even a randy foye on the cheap. Then a sf. Maybe a 5th big like Thomas Robinson.
Bottom line, how much do you think it would cost to pry him away If the spurs do think he is a spur?
My guess would be around 10 mill considering they have ben Now.

- Would you give up Danny Green for Tyreke Evans?

- Danny Green will never be a better basketball player than Evans. Green is still a playoff chocker, don't lie yourselves.
I posted this in the think tank thread for him:
http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/show...=1#post6707695
but he said he benefited from playing SF and SG; comfortable playing multiple spots; would bring a lot of versatility to the roster without having to be shoehorned into a specific position.
Plus when they go small he adds another ball handler without having to resort to a smaller player.
He's a FA, why not just sign him and keep Green?
oh and if you need a half court buzzer beater, always get the ball to him
You could try, but he's restricted.
You give him an offer sheet. Worst that happens is Sacramento has another bad contract.
The McLemore pick makes me think they're trying to move on, imo.
Well you asked why you might have to do a trade. If you like him enough to sign and offer sheet, you probably would be willing to do a reasonable trade in order to get him. Also, if the Spurs sign him to the offer sheet, and they match, are you saying the Spurs would have been stuck with a bad contract?
because he is a Restricted free agent
Could very well be the case, but that doesn't mean they will just let an asset walk for nothing. They might let him go, but S&T are there for a reason.
Not at all. I don't see any trade scenarios Sacramento would accept.
For the next two years, Green is almost at the irreplaceable stage. It's so rare to find someone that can not only shoot the 3 like him, but defend as he does.
This is the Richard Jefferson conundrum all over again. Sure, guys like RJ and Evans are clearly more talented guys, but their fit compared to Green's is not as good. Talent level of the team would go up, but likely it would end up being a net loss. He's not untradeable, but damn, he would be hard to replicate in this system at the moment. Not only that, but even brining in someone at SG seems odd considering moving Danny to the bench might really hurt his overall usefulness.
Evans is 3 years younger than Green.
Understand and getting a fresh start is probably a good idea for Evans. However, there are plenty of other teams that can offer him both playing time and a better fit. As far I'm concerned, it's not even a good discussion idea. If the saving money is the objective, the Spurs can start by getting rid of Bonner.
Sure, there is that too which is an option. But the original question is why would you trade if he's a FA and I was just trying to paint that picture. Whether or not SAC wants him back, would want to trade or any other thing is still open.
