Danny Green Unapologetic About Game 5 Miss
Danny Green was one of the most heavily-criticized players on the Los Angeles Lakers roster this season, especially throughout the postseason. There were times where Green would go cold while shooting from the three-point line, and this would anger the Lakers’ often overzealous fanbase. In fact, Green missed what would have been the NBA title-winning shot in Game 5 of the Finals against the Miami Heat. Following the miss, Green received death threats which he ultimately addressed.
The following game, Green was back to his normal self, all while the Lakers won the game easily. During an episode of The Ringer NBA Show, Green spoke about his Game 5 miss and what it felt like afterward. As he explained, some felt like he should apologize to the fans, although he was adamant about never doing that, as he felt like he didn’t owe anybody anything.

Per Green:
“You know human nature of fans, they’re just very emotional. They take the game very serious and they see us as performers and if we’re not performing the way we’re supposed to then we’re supposed to apologize for it. No, I don’t owe you an apology. Whether I played shitty or not. You’re not my boss, coach, and I’m not gonna apologize for missing shots. I’ll apologize to my teammates for missed mistakes, missed assignments, if I mess up a play or defensively don’t make a rotation. But no, I don’t owe you anything.”
Heading into next season, Green will be in the final year of his deal with the Lakers, and it’s clear he will be excited to prove his worth and help this team win yet another title.

NNORDY steps into jazz fusion with latest release “Wrong Turn”
NNORDY’s latest release, “Wrong Turn” is a fully live jazz fusion album that showcases the limitless possibilities of instrumental storytelling with the remarkable chemistry between guitar, keyboards, bass, and drums. The song has no words but is an excellent story told through musicianship and sets the stage for listeners to embark on a rich jazz experience.
“Wrong Turn” shows the strength of live performance from the get-go. Each instrument feels alive and in conversation with the others, a dynamic dialogue that develops organically over the course of the piece. Without vocal guidance, each musical phrase is left to speak for itself, giving the listener the freedom to interpret the track in their own way.
The guitar and keyboards often lead, crafting complex melodic lines and textures that give the music direction and atmosphere. Meanwhile, the bass and drums lay down a solid rhythmic base, creating movement and momentum while still leaving a lot of room for exploration. NNORDY creates a track that both dedicated jazz fans and listeners looking for something adventurous and fresh will enjoy. “Wrong Turn” shows that instrumental music can be as expressive and compelling as vocal music.
