    Damn it Danny Green sometimes you shoot like you have toes for fingers and run like you have fingers for toes. Can we give him an MRI and get this confirmed? That has to void his NBA contract right?

    I mean, the dude doesn't move fast enough or do anything to get hurt. I make harder cuts and move more when I'm at Target looking for my wife.

    Yeah. I'm mad. It wasn't enough that Kawhi played us like a fiddle, but our fallback guy as a result of that fiasco is so bad, I would actually believe it if someone told me he was in on it with Kawhi.

    I can't believe that this guy is shooting exactly the same from 3 (36%) in the POs as he did in the regular season. One, that seems high, and two, he seems like he's been worse in the POs.

    Not many games but certainly a lot of shots.

    This is why stats lie, he shot 1-3 from three last game which is 33%, not terrible but nothing special. He played 20 minutes and scored 4 total points. Just based on his 33% from three it’s not a terrible game but I don’t think when most people watched the game they thought Danny was playing well.

    He is without a doubt the worst player remaining in the bubble and i don't think it's close.

    Oh I don’t know, Kostas Antetokounmpo might be worse, but it’s close, and one is a raw as hell 60th pick, not a playoff tested 2 time champ.

    At least we're not paying him that much.

    Is Jamal Murray that good or is Danny Green that bad?

    I kid I kid but my god Green looks awful in any 1v1 situation vs Murray

    Danny Green is the guy who was in the company for decades and now they're too stupid to get rid of him so they continue paying him despite how awful he is. This guy is supposed to be a 3&D player? He's too inconsistent, too slow and incapable of guarding wing players, and does NOTHING for the Lakers. 20+ minutes per game to score a few points when he's wide open in all of his shots. Win or lose this season, Danny Green has got to be moved. Kyle Korver would be better than him...

    Forget about Danny Green... He said in the first series vs Portland that he needed to be better. It's 12 games later and he's playing even worse. This dude is just here to collect a paycheck. Everyone has given up on him. At this point, if he can tie his shoes, I am happy.

    I get all the criticism above, but hey... all we need is Danny Green to put up 5 three pointers in one of the remaining big games, and then he will be a hero :)

    It is an issue though in one sense
    Going with Dwight for example just made Jokic use a ton of energy right from the start of the game both on offense and defense

    With Bradley it was the same thing. Hound the opposing ball handler full court first with Avery and then Caruso / Rondo. Just wear the opposing guard down

    With Green though Murray is almost guaranteed to get a good start because Greens feet look like they're stuck in mud in isolation. He's always been.a streaky player and Green on him is liking letting the motor rev up and warmed up

    With Rondo morphing into playoff rondo Green is the biggest disappointment of the season. I was so happy to get him at the beginning o the year too... but it ain’t over until it’s over.

    Still rooting for him to come up big in the rest of the playoffs, but it ain’t looking good.
