At some point it has to come from Green though. You can lead a horse to water but can't make him drink. I feel like that rings extra true for Josh. He has all the tools and we've seen flashes of what he could be.
Im also at times wondering if we're harping over a non issue with Josh because his passiveness and willingness to be the oil to make the gears turn also helps keep other guys in rhythm. His comfortability to be without the ball for long periods is a big plus next to Luka and we've seen over and over how rare that skill can be.
Hard to find a middle ground where Josh can float easily between strong 3rd option to passive playmaker throughout a game and expect him to be consistent.
