THE GREEN MACHINE: The Subtle Emergence of Josh Green

[sefant]

It doesn’t seem evenhanded to point to JG’s shortcomings in his 60 minutes of playing time this season without also pointing out that he leads the team in FG% (83%) and 3-point % (80%), excluding players who only played 1 game in garbage time (Tyler Dorsey, 100%).

Yes, his 5/6 from deep is a small sample. But so is his passing up of shots this year. 

His 3.0 scoring efficiency is also pretty amazing. That’s 18 points on 6 FG attempts for the season. Hard to do better than that.

For all the offensive complains. Mavs have the 2nd highest offensive output with Green on the floor. Behind Wood.

Green on: 130.1 ORtg
Green off: 118.4 ORtg

Green's Simmon's-like refusal to shoot the open shot is what has been rendering him worthless in half the game.

Simmons on: ORtg 104.3
Simmons off: ORtg 120.4

Carry the hell on (no i am not Kendrick Perkins)
