    But it's no sixth sense. Just more of a defensive sense for the second-year swingman. Green hears the voice of Rivers when playing defense even when the coach is unusually silent on the sideline.

    "Coach is always telling me to get down, get low, be at this spot, be at that spot," said Green. "At game time, I'm just hearing those same imaginary voices. They're saying, 'G, get down. G, get over. G, slide over.'

    "I'm hearing them so much in practice that during the game I'm sliding over, I'm getting over the pick. It's translating to the game, so that's why I think I'm playing better on defense."

    While Green still has plenty of room for improvement on both ends of the floor, Rivers feels comfortable enough with the 20-year-old's defense to keep him in games. That is a big improvement from last year when the mere thought of a defensive rotation would send Green's head spinning. Still, when Rivers talked about certain players needing to step up, he excluded Green.

    "This is his second year," said Rivers. "The fact that we're asking him to give us stuff right now, you could make a case is unfair."</div>

    LOL

    Hopefully he's telepathic and that's what Doc Rivers is actually saying.

    It's nice to know that at least someone is listening to Glenn, because he sure seems to fall on deaf ears late in games.
