Posted Nov 22, 2010
Had it not been for Danny Ferry's recommendation, Danny Green would probably be in the NBA Development League today and not at the end of the Spurs' bench. After he was released by the Cavs, Green had a hard time gaining interest from any other team. ''Danny's positive comments about him helped lean us in that direction,'' Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said.
