Defensively he does a ton well and still has lots of room to grow with understanding NBA offensive tendencies.

Can you offer concrete evidence of this? Can you offer specific games where you think he was benched for playing poorly and then didn't reenter?

Again, show me some specific evidence for your claim please.

I just disagree with omahen's take completely. I do not believe I am misinterpreting ANYTHING about the data, in fact I am not even doing interpretation really at all. I am just observing how successful the lineups of Green have been. Sure, RC has been picking his spots, so some of it is attributable to RC's coaching decisions, but I think it is naive to think Green's impact is only because RC has been benching him when he doesn't "play well."

Will the insanely positive impacts continue in larger minutes? Almost certainly not, and I never said so. I am just suggesting that Green's play and impact warrants him getting more minutes. Then go from there and see how he does. Like last night, larger minutes did NOT diminish his impact and arguably increased it.

His steal, dribble the ball up, and leave for THJ for 3 was beautiful. His boxing out and awareness on rebounding was stellar. His swipe of the ball of a Heat mid dribble was amazing. And his dives on the floor were refreshing. Love all of it.
