God no. Green has highlight dunks, every now and then gets hot offensively, but is consistently destroyed on defense. Flat-out one of the worst defenders in the league. Stay away at all costs.
Green can create offense, and when you roll him out there with Iguodala and Livingston his defense won't matter. You put those two on the wings and stick Green on whatever corner 3 scrub is out there.
Busty is a one trick pony. We have enough shooters.
Define "create" for me..... because Green's career assist rate is 1.9 assist/36 minutes, which is right up there with Harrison Barnes' ability to create (1.8 assist/36 minutes). And it's very well-documented that Barnes is completely unable to create (at least for others).
Now, if you mean "Green can hog the ball and heave up a lot of bad shots in a short period of time"...... well yeah, that I can agree with.
