He single-handedly ups the Mavs' athletic quotient significantly when he's on the floor, and like you say, it's not just raw energy. He does smart things.
Unpopular, but should-be-obvious opinion: the Mavs did a good job with Green this year.
I really hope there is a consistent minutes for Green next year. He needs to be able to spread his wings a little. I have no problem with his minutes being limited this year though.
Long term, I know it is easy to compare him to Bane, who I really like, and Bey, who will be on the all rookie team, but there may be two other guys who may be compared to Green such as RJ Hampton and Tyrese Maxey. I liked what I have seen from both. Both are much more advanced scorers and have similar athleticism to Green. Those are the guys who we should watch the next few years and compare Green's growth.
