In the highlights he really looks like DPOY point god dunk champion ...
I really hope he gets consistent minutes on the team and continues to develop. He needs to study Luka and Brunson's game and learn to operate at slower speed, add acceleration and deceleration to his game. Last season, his best plays were at constant full speed.

This. I would also add that during his first year in the NBA (at least) Josh Green was under a coaching atmosphere that was not good for young, developing players...to the point of actually stunting growth and confidence in certain players. Josh has all the tools He just needs to be coached for the NBA. Hopefully we now have the coaching staff for that. I may be grasping at Mavs straws...but I'm a Mavs homeboy...

He also need to pull the trigger on open 3s. He was timid in the regular season and scared in the playoffs. If he can simply take the shot when its there and maintain his 36% three point average, his defense will keep him on the court long enough to be able to work on more advanced stuff.

Obviously, there's some positive news buzzing about Josh Green, and I think what we are all hearing/reading aren't just assumptions that he has improved.
It's a given that Josh Green would be a better player in his 3rd year. But how much better stat wise? What are reasonable stat expectations for him?
Prediction: 10ppg, 3rpg, 3apg, 1spg, .5bpg and an uptick on attempts and percentages across the board.
I'm also predicting Josh Green's FT percentage would be in the Luka FT range

I would argue the most important stat for him this coming season is 3 point attempts per 36. He needs to get that over 5. If the practice we just watched is any indication, he is well on his way.

We may soon have to change the title of this thread. His talent is not so subtle anymore.

@"Winter", do you want to triple down on your Green take before the season starts? You'll earn a lot of cred if he looks this good in the preseason, you stick to your guns and then he still doesn't catch on.

I think Winter argued that we should cut him. Its hard to make that case after watching him in practice, even if he does end up flaming out. There is clearly something there to explore one more season. Its not like we can do anything else with that cash/cap and you can't make the roster spot argument when we still have an open one.
RE: The Subtle Emergence of Josh Green - Jommybone - 10-03-2022
All he needs is an ok shot from deep and he’s a quality rotation guy. That’s it. And he’s shown flashes of a better than ok shot already at age 21. Would not bet against JG.
On the other hand, if he truly breaks out, Mavs might be too cheap to pay him. We only overpay for underperforming vets.

Because of a fan jam game?
I’m rooting for the kid but it feels like he’s the only one on the roster for fans to hype up. We know what everyone else is (not a top 60 player).
RE: The Subtle Emergence of Josh Green - HoosierDaddyKid - 10-03-2022
Imma wait and see before I claim he has arrived. Playing well in scrimmages against your teammates is totally different than real time game situations. I hope he can be a piece off the bench, they sure could use another wing without trading for one.
RE: The Subtle Emergence of Josh Green - Razzmatazz_Hopskidillydoo - 10-03-2022
Fan game or not, the version of Green is way ahead of the version of Green who was content on being invisible on offense.
If anything, this fan game is a preview of things to come. He'd get the green light from the coaching staff early in the season. If he does not capitalize on it, then his tenure as a Mav or as an NBA player would be coming to an end very soon.
He is going to bring all he has. And he has to.
That's just a player fans can easily root for.

JG appears to have added some muscle/weight.

I think there is hope that Wood can be a top 60 player. He probably has the highest variance regarding what he can be on this team.

I was able to read this article. Typically I cannot, so I guess I will post.

Honestly, by any angle you choose to view from, if Green becomes a 20 minutes per night player (or more) who can be a plus for you while he's on the floor that totally changes this roster from a depth standpoint. We should all be rooting for this possibility as hard as we can.

Yeah, I stated a couple days ago that him making "the leap" absolutely changes this roster drastically for the better. Not only from a playing standpoint this season but from a trade asset perspective. Hitting on a draft prospect IS the way that the roster outlook for teams is changed.
