What does green light mean to you guys? 5 guys can't have a "green light" on any team. If it means a good look, be confident and take it then yes. Seeking out shots, as a green light, I definitely don't want Maye, Williams, or Cam "green lighted". None are "green light" guys as I define them. None are create a shot and it's a good thing. Love what they bring, but "green light"? Your the go to guy is not them, not their strength. Let alone Platek!! I guess "green light" has a different meaning to some
As I've posted before, a "green light" from Roy is relative to position, and has different levels. As he likes to say, players first need to learn the difference "between a shot and a good shot". Thus, the green light means he trusts you to decide when to take shots appropriate for your position and won't pull you for one indiscretion.... and even if you're "heat-checking" you get the leeway of "that had better go in" before he yanks you #DannyGreen.Yeah, the way I see a green light is it being a bit outside of the normal offense. Different guys have different spots and different positions that a shot is good for them. Example, on a kick back out catch and shoot, Kenny taking the trey is great but taking the same distance shot when the ball is just swung side to side to him isn't his sweet spot. Justin, Marcus, Joel all had green lights to take what usually are bad shots if they felt they had a good enough look.
When we talk green light I think that guy is looked at to take over at times when the regular offense bogs down, for this trip down court or at times for stretches of a game. Most guys have a pretty well defined good shot for them, Roy wants every player to take that great look for them but what is a good shot for 1 player is not a good shot for another. Example, that same inside kick back out to Kenny is a good shot for him but would NOT have been for Theo. Neither were or are what I consider green lighted, you saw a green light with Justin in his senior season, saw it from Joel, maybe at times a touch more than I was always comfortable.
I think maybe Cam will be the most close to a green light, Luke to an extent, I think Coby has a great chance to get that light at least greener by end of the season. I do think both Kenny and Platek need a little more room to get their shots off but both (Kenny has shown but I think same will apply to Platek) are very selective in the shots they take.
