    Green has higher upside than Edwards. Add 15 lbs to Green and he's going to be a major problem for the league.

    Green's 3s finally started falling late, but his 2 point shooting continues to be his bread and butter. Shot 9/14 from 2 for 64% and he's shot 62.8% from 2 over 8 games after the All Star break. That is just flat out elite.

    I do have to say, mathloom is on point with his creation of his chapter thread. Chapter 2 of Green is an entirely different animal compared to the Green of Chapter 1.

    Reminds me of when Prince slapped this one dude and then treated them to pancakes afterwards.

    That's because he's one of the best posters on this board.

    All it took was those 3's to finally fall. Now he can create more.

    I'm very aroused.

    The young teammates definitely alleviate some pressure I think.

    Jeeze and to think we have another lottery pick and more!

    Thank you!! Just went by instinct. He was decent going into the break, being around champions was going to remind him what he wants and who he is when rubbing shoulders with young stars and legends.

    Really awesome we predicted a great thing with not-so-obvious chances of happening and it's just unfolding before our eyes. I know being cautious is safe for our feelings and insecurities, but it can also bar you from that priceless feeling of being optimistic about something and seeing it actually happen even though so many people told you it wouldn't. You can do that in life.

    If he had shorter hair he would kind of look like a young Denzel Washington. I have a feeling if his play can eventually back up everything else he is going to have some players in the league wanting to play with him. Hoping they can get some of the stragglers.

    Stats.nba from February on has him at 15/25 from mid range for 60%. Likely not including this game.

    Same time frame has him shooting 61/107 from 2 overall for 57%

    Not much work needed if you trust NBA.com stats. After the All Star break (adjust if you want something else) : https://go.nba.com/iqsou

    Love this move. I had a post player I coached this year that mastered this move and people in the stands would be yelling at the refs that he traveled. Every game.
