What is with the horrible crop of new GNSFs?
It's pretty damn bad. That or I'm just getting old and more irritable.
Just have to wait until middle school starts up again, I guess.
Wow! Way to sensitive to be dudes. Just my opinion; I never professed it to be fact! To be a star you must possess a certain mentality which history has proven.
Oh, good. The bads have returned.
Danny Green is probably tradeable for a decent backup SF and one or two picks. I'd probably do it, given his high value and our glut of SGs. We could easily slot Belinelli in there.
We're going to trade a starting SG who can play 10 minutes at SF for a SF that can play 10 minutes?
DG wasn't so great all year. People here was mad at him a lot of times. You only have to see game threads.
But trade him? for who? Another big? backup PG?
Yeah, it could be the time to trade him if we talk about his value in the market but he's better for us than anyone we could get in return. He's not so good. His trade value is small even after what he did in the Finals.
go for it
I would only trade him for someone really good and really young. Otherwise, no.
And get two first round picks that may turn into that same starting SG.
And we have great depth at that SG position. People are so hung up on the fact that he started. The fact that he started so many games was really a gift from Pop in the beginning, anyway. Until he hit all those threes in the finals, people were thinking he was a choker.
Only people who forgot Green's Clippers series in 2012 considered him a choker. Most of the people on this board knew he wasn't long before he set a Finals record.
No, you don't trade Green for picks and a backup and picks. You keep him, because he's the best fit in for the starting lineup on the roster -- and just about the best fit next to Parker and Leonard in the league. You don't make a team that was in the Finals significantly weaker, just because a player has trade value.
I knew I shouldn't have opened this thread.
I knew people across the NBA would be overrating Danny Green so I'm not sure why I didn't expect many people here to do the same. Anyone willing to bet that Danny Green's production drops off this year? I'm fairly certain he'll shoot a lower percentage and score less per game. Anyone want to take it a bet on those fronts?
The idea that Danny Green is essential to the Spurs success is quite odd to me. Danny Green's main job on our offense is to hit 3 point shots. Thats not exactly a role that is difficult to fill. What puts Danny Green over the top is how he plays above average defense and can guard 3 positions on the perimeter. But Danny Green is not a shut down defender by any stretch of the imagination. He's certainly not creating offense for other players on this team. He absolutely does help with spacing - as any efficient 3 point shooter does - but his shots only come off of the other members of the team. If any of the big 3 drop off significantly this year - and honestly chances are good this is going to happen - then Danny Green's production and efficiency will also drop off. If Kawhi's offensive game takes the step up many are hoping for this year I don't believe Green will benefit. I think Kawhi has a lot of potential as someone who can create offense for himself but I'm not quite optimistic he'll be the creator every member of the current big 3 is.
This.
Danny's a good player on a nicely valued contract, but he's not untouchable.
you want to bet that both his scoring AND shooting % will drop? i'll take that bet.
The thing you're not getting is that Green makes less than 4 mil per year. Who do you plan to get for that money that would be more valuable than him?
when discussing shooting%, are we talking FG% or 3PT%
and i'm assuming scoring is per game not some per minute crap
two cirst rounders is a fantasy.
