Was Danny Green just playing with us when he sucked at shooting threes for the entire season? He shot 33% during the regular season, which is a jarring departure from his customary 40-ish percent, then the playoffs come around and, bam, he’s shooting above fifty percent like it’s no big deal. Was it all a smokescreen? Was he just faking being bad at threes?
I’m not exaggerating when I say that the Spurs could have also won 73 games if only Danny Green could have made some threes once in a while. Okay, maybe I’m exaggerating a little bit, but you have to agree that Danny’s cold shooting had to have cost them at least one game. Maybe two games. Now he’s actually playing well again and guess what? The Spurs are looking to be absolutely unstoppable.
