Yea, just days before the season starts seems odd… wonder if it’s health related.

I absolutely think we'll find out Green's level this season. He's a SG who's never played with a real PG. Maybe down the line he can develop his PG skills and play like Booker does now, but he's gotta focus on his best talents at his optimal position now.
