5th Annual SI Player Rankings: #10 SG

[RipCity32]

We will be starting our 5th annual SI player rankings.  Last year we only go to the SF position, but I'm quite determined to get the rankings completely finished this year.
 
Don't be afraid to share your opinion, whether it's a popular one or not.  We will once again be going 10 spots deep at all 5 positions.
 
Please remember these two things, please vote on the polls and vote for the best player, don't be a homer.  Most of the polls will be open 24 hours, but if the first place vote getter gets 5 or more votes than the second vote getter than I will close the thread if I'm around. Nola and I will be guys running the polls in order to try to get this done this time around. 
 
Remember, this is based on who is currently the best player, not who has the potential to be the best.  Who would you take today?

I just wanted to repost this:

I love Danny Green, I would take him on my team in a heartbeat, but I think he's more of a product of the team he plays on than the player he actually is.

Defensively, he's excellent in all areas. He can defend ball screens, he can defend on an island, he can fight through screens, get out to shooters, he's excellent all around.

But this is the select group of top SG's we are talking about here, and he just does not stack up offensively. I may take Kyle Korver before Danny Green. Here is why: Green has it easy playing in San Antonio, he's a great spot up guy, but he has it easy. Here are a few numbers. 26% of Bradley Beals threes were uncontested last year, 38% of JJ Redicks threes were uncontested, 28% of Klay Thompsons, and so on. Green? 51% of his threes are uncontested. 51%, over half. That's a product of the team he plays for. When his shots were contested, he knocked down just 31% of his looks. Those other guys? 44%, 39%, and 34%.

But it goes further than that. Before I said I may take Korver over Green, that's because Korver can do more than just spot up and he's good enough defensively. Green is a spot up guy, he can't do anything else for you. He was abysmal in the PnR, you can't isolate him, he is a good cutter off the ball but it isn't something he did less than twice a game, team basically generated one field goal per game from Green cutting. Then the thing that shocked me, and really swung this in favor of some other guys over Green, he can't come off screens. He only did it about once a game and only shot 35% in those situations. He's quite literally a catch and shoot guy who may not even be as good as advertised there. He can't control the ball, and when he does put the ball on the floor for 1 or more dribbles he shoots sub 35% from the field.

The 9th best SG needs to offer more to his team than that, IMO.
