    I think he looks better because of how they play Team Defense and Slowing Down Pace Defense and he has more time to react.....but I am not holding my breath that he actually does defend to a proper level.

    And that includes defending every play and not his sporadic highlight blocks.....

    Looked at the defensive ratings. Going by that logic, he's got a better defensive rating than Jimmy Butler. Obviously, Jimmy is a much better defender. Green has been struggling, and I'm losing hope for him too. Doesn't mean he isn't trying hard and not focusing on defense. He's improved a lot on that end. I'm much more concerned about his offense.

    Somebody teach this man how to do it! I’m itching to see the video evidence.

    You people are awful….he’s not here for his defense. I wonder if in Golden State they are all concerned about Steph Curry’s defense. The reality is that Green is as good a defender as James Hardin who is the second best Rocket of all time behind Hakeem. Green will be fine if he improves his bball iq and becomes more consistent on the offensive end of the floor. If not, then he’ll be playing elsewhere next year.

    Did you really just type all this and think you were making a good point?
