Danny's commentating

That was great, Douglas, thanks.

I find it interesting how Doc cited defensive reasons
for demoting Telfair, yet Danny comes around and picks
up on the offensive things that Sebastian needs to
work on.  Interesting.  

The same difference of opinion, or long term vs. short
term perspective, applies to some of the recent quotes
by Danny and Doc regarding G. Green.  Danny thinks
he's right on schedule, or a little ahead, while Doc
thinks he hasn't been playing very well recently.  A
little good cop bad cop action for the dynamic duo of
Danny and Doc?  Who knows, but I always end up
agreeing with what Danny says...
