I think we should run everything we can through Jeff Green so we can pad his stats sell high and ship him out of town ASAP.

I don't think running everything through Jeff Green and getting him high per game "numbers" will fool scouts and GMs.

Best to actually put him in a position to succeed. So by all means play him heavy minutes, but force feeding him the ball isn't a good plan.

I have a better idea, let's do that with Rondo when he comes back.

Agree.  Watching him get jammed up by double teams isn't going to up his value.

Green probably has the most value if you can get him perceived as a potential Sixth Man of the Year candidate who can defend three positions, hit some open threes, and occasionally go off for 30 points in a game.

Looks like people agree he is not the future though.

He is so frustrating all that talent and zero heart.

Definitely not.  If anything it would hurt his value.  For some reason I can't fathom, some scouts still think Green has point forward abilities.  This strategy would disprove that pretty quickly.  Plus the shooting percentages would drop.  I think Loosecannon has it about right but I don't see it happening with this roster.
