There were many storylines to come out of Game 3, but none more exciting than Danny Green and Gary Neal hijacking the game from all the stars and putting San Antonio back in control of the series.
It was a shooters paradise in San Antonio. Green and Neal combined for 45 points, outscoring Miami's Big Three by themselves. Green's 27 were more than Tony Parker, Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobli could put up together. Mike Miller's 5-5 performance from beyond the arc was the only thing keeping Miami within reach in the third quarter. Once he went out of the game, Green and Neal, who went 7-9 and 6-10 from beyond the arc respectively, shot the Spurs to an easy 113-77 victory.
Game 4 is Thursday night in San Antonio.
Worse massacre: Game 3 or The Red Wedding?

We can't be shocked at this game. After all, Danny Green was a McDonald's All-American. And Gary Neal, I imagine, has been to McDonald's.

Danny Green's 16 3-pointers made in this series are a Spurs record for most made in an NBA Finals series.

2007-09 Danny Green was maybe 3rd/4th option on North Carolina. Behind Hansborough, Ty Lawson, Wayne Ellington. Zeller? He's #1 right now
