They should have made Mills lose weight before signing that deal. I remember when the 2013-14 season started I didn't even recognize him since he was in such great shape. Ever since he has gone back to being fat again. He's not fooling anyone with that beard.
I recall saying before free agency started "I pity the fool that signs Patty Mills." Unfortunately, it was the Spurs that signed him, and not only did they sign him, they signed him for a boatload of cash.
I didn't really want him back at all, not unless it was for dirt cheap contract that could easily be traded.

Guy w/ the camera was afraid of getting hit with one of those buttons tbh.

Jerry West be like...
You know, it would be pretty cool if Jerry West did call him and they were having a casual conversation while watching the game, just talking Basketball and shooting the breeze.Jerry West be like...
Fatty got complacent. Pop needs to go 2013 on him again...
“He was a little fat ass. He had too much junk in the trunk. His decision making wasn’t great, and he wasn’t in great shape...”
Popovich used to call Mills "Fatty Patty"
"Pop doesn't have a lot of great things to say, but when he does you take it."
Wouldn't that be illegal?

Of course it would, but how would they find out? I'd assume teams do this quite often in today's NBA.
Looks like Patty was on the patty melt diet plan all off-season.2014 vs 2017

Seriously though, that is not muscle and - even if it was - why bulk up so much if one of your few great attributes is speed? He's noticeably slower this year, and it's really hurting his ability to beat people to the rim, get separation on his jumpers, and is making his already poor defense even worse.
50 million for this? smh PATFO
Nothing but shrimps and snags (Australian slang for sausage) on the barbie after that contract.
I knew this would happen to Patty. He went from being a bargain to being overpaid when he signed that 50 mill contract. With such a salary he opened himself up to criticism and he was never gonna live up to the pay rise.
He's worse across the board on all areas than last year (haven't looked at stats, Just the eye test) yet we are paying him 12.5 million this season where last year he was getting about 3 mill?
Loved and appropriately paid, to overpaid and now fans are getting pissed, Just like that. What a contract. After Patty signed that deal so many good point guards signed tiny deals. 50 million etc were they thinking.
Basically went from earning Matt Bonner like money and now he is earning Tony Parker like money. And the production was never going to match the increase in pay.
It's a smallish contract in the NBA world. Yet with this contract he instantly became one of the few top earning sportsman in Australia. He's just not worth it like he once was.
lol'd at 50 mills, great nicknameBut the fluffers have been been pointing at the gaudy record to justify the moves (or lack thereof)/contracts this offseason and the infallibility of PATFO
There's no reason Gasol and 50 Mills should be making $100 million between them. this .
50 MILL$ moves up two spots
63/66... Can'tthat PATFO suckers
Hes always been mediocre at best
ty defense, too small and too clumsy of a passer and handler
Anhe hes a terrible contested shooter
ing Jamal Crawford is miles better than Mills and hes like 40 years old
Stupidest contract in spurs history
Obviously you dont watch either player. Or look at ALL of the numbers. Watching you and your alt post is worse than mills or fultz. NextHe's worse than Fultz, who has a bum shoulder. Can't you count clown?
Toronto and Minnesota had tryed to get Gasol so I don't think that he would be impossible to move.
I don't see Mills needing to have a 1st attached. He's played poorly to start but his track record as an elite shooter still makes him valuable even though he's overpaid. I could see them holding onto him for the remainder of this season and seeing where the market stands in the offseason

Fine trade for ibaka
That was in the '16 off season, before Raptors added Ibaka and Timberwolves added Gibson. Also, Raptors are near the tax and already have 3.5 rotation caliber C's .
Timberwolves might be interested in Gasol for Dieng. His 4/$64M extension kicked in this season and he went from starter to exclusively backing up Towns. Also, they'll eventually have a bloated payroll and have Patton, who projects as similar, in the pipeline.
Don't like Dieng's contract, but I'd do it. They're otherwise stuck with Gasol's, don't have flexibility in the meantime anyway and could use a prime starting caliber C. His game would also be a solid fit and it would be easier to start Gay and insert Bertans into the rotation.
