As someone who has been a strong Jeff Green hater, he showed a lot today and the last few games. His defense was fantastic today, as it was on Melo a few days ago. Remember last year when Bass tried to guard Lebron, who just ended up shooting free throws all day and night? Green did a commendable job on him today.
He still has some serious flaws, poor rebounding, limited moves on offense, but I have been really impressed with his play over the last few games. Slowly, I'm starting to (kind of) see why Ainge made the investment he did.
It was interesting to see him at PF down the stretch today. Worked well against a small ball team like Miami. He is really becoming a solid defender. Very happy to see that.
