This guys defense has really improved and his overall game is so much different. He playing smarter and with consistently 30+ minutes a game from now on could be a candidate for MIP.
I watched this game today in the League Pass archives, and I certainly agree that Green played well last night. He's a streak shooter, and he was hot last night. Defensively, he was extremely active and really worked his tail off. With that said, we've seen this from him plenty of times in Boston. Let's see if he can keep it up. I honestly hope he does, but I wouldn't put money on it.

High5 is right, as far as the defense. If he continues to play like he has recently, he should for sure be at least a candidate.
