They are completely different players that excel at different things. Jeff Green has only flashed recently. The Thunder wouldn't have gone to the Western Conference title either year IMO with Jeff Green because of Perk's D and the ripple effect on Harden and Ibaka. The Celtics might have gone back to the Finals had they not made that trade in 2011. Green would kill Perk in a one on one game but scoring 43 in a regular season game doesn't make him a more valuable piece.
I'm glad he's just able to play given his health problems. He's a very solid player, and I do like to see him do well.
