It’s been a long time, a really long time, almost a decade holy crap, since Danny Green was on the Cavaliers, but I’d still consider this a revenge game. Green exacted sweet REVENGE on the team that spurned him, showed them exactly how he could still be helping their championship aspirations, and I think LeGM is on the phone right now trying to swing a trade. Has anyone told him about the concept of a “trade deadline”?
Green hasn’t been quite as good the last few years as he was when the Spurs were winning championships (whoa I just figured out some stuff), but he’s still a nice and solid 3-and-D guy. I used to hate that designation, but since I hardly ever see it anymore, since tons of players can hit threes and most players can at least play at least a little defense, I think I’m free to use the term.
The question I will leave you with is this: will the Spurs retire his jersey when all is said and done? I’ll think about it and return with answers in the next Green vid.
