    Oooooh ahhhhhh he took 3 mill less a year. Such a big discount to tie up money with 4 PG's plus Manu and Forbes!

    Anyone who doesn't see that Mills actually took a discount on this deal is munted. He was projecting at 15-17 per according to Bobby Marks and co.
    Jeff Teague got 19M/yr, and he's 3x the PG Patty is.

    Besides standing in the corner with his hands up ready to chuck, what other skill set does Mills have? Be real with yourself

    serious question - if Mills wasn't Australian, would you even give a about him?

    Don't sign him at all. That was the best option, or wait a see if you can get any of your other targets, if not, give him a big 1 year contract. I really don't know if he'd even be tradeable later on down the line.
    Or do wait, Patty goes, the market dries up and we go into next season with Raymond Felton with a face full of tacos. Is no one here looking at the NBA landscape over the last two years? I don't think so. That's a good team friendly deal in just the right dollar amount to trade if it doesn't work out, much like Elnono is saying. I thought it was obvious? He performs at that money he is hugely desirable, he doesn't it's the prefect absorb Salary type deal that bottoming teams like.

    He ing peaked in 2014. We didn't need him for four more years to disappear in the playoffs when it counts. That money could've been better spent elsewhere. He's redundant.

    yeah, he is one of the most fun to watch players in the league. What I like the most is that he is a Spurs guy, and we keep Spurs guys around for less than they would get else where. The guy is loyal and scrote cheeses around here take a in there hands. 12 mill is all

    Anywhere but at PG unless you were upgrading. You just know TP is coming back anyway. Can't wait for Murray to be stifled again.

    I'd actually like to see a list of players that average 6ppg in the playoffs that are getting paid 12+ Million. Patty's got to be down the lower end of that list. What he was making previously is what he was worth, but with this increasing salary cap you could maybe up that to 6-8 million max. He wasn't worth a cent more than that. You let some other bottom feeding team pay more if they wanted him. Spurs tied up money for nothing.

    6 points per ing game career playoff average. Awesome.

    Patty's deal seems reasonable when Tony Snell got 46M/4

    Most pg in that price range are on teams that don't make the playoffs.

    Now we locked up a guy who, at this point, has no business playing a huge roll on a contender for four years.

    At least Snell plays D. The Bucks also don't have a logjam at the 3.

    . Now we're comparing ourselves to teams like the Bucks.

    "At least we're not as incompetent as those guys!"

    One bad contract doesn't justify another. Shaun Livingston, who is better, could've been had for way less.

    Can't wait to watch him eat Fatty alive again, shooting jumpers over his helpless over-extended arms.

    If the Spurs even get that far next season.

    I would have rather had Tony Snell at his salary than Patty - And that's saying a lot. Patty's too short and his defense is non-existent. I always prefer guards/wings with size that can play defense. Patty is neither. Really horrible signing. I just did not want him back at all.

    Sounds steep, but honestly, Mills is the heart and soul of the team. With Manu and Parker likely both out the door next year, who else is going to define the culture?

    Kawhi doesn't it quietly, but Mills is more vocal as what needs to be done.
