Seriously, you too?

No, the reason we lost is bc Pop decided to go down with Enrique who shot like 30% that series instead of rolling with Paddy who was having arguably his best series. Paddy was the far better option at PG by every single metric despite his struggles defending Doc Jr.

She thinks fathead is a good player. That tells you everything you need to know. :lol

The problem is, compared to what other people are getting paid, Patty was easily worth what the Spurs gave him. I don't know if it was wise for this team to hire a backup PG for four more years, right at this point. But that was the market for Patty, if not more.

To me, it isn't the number of dollars paid. I'm thinking about one mid-level player being with 1/8 of the salary cap. Especially when it seems like you need at least two top-tier guys on a contending team. So you have two guys taking up half the cap, plus two guys taking up another quarter of the cap between them? it doesn't work. To really contend, you've just about got to spend into the tax.

He didn't "just sign" it. Also, it's a great deal for both camps. Philly gets top shooter and vet without committing long term, Reddick gets paid and, if it's a disaster, his contract is suddenly very tradable.

How do you figure he is going to be tradeable? The only teams that are going to want him are contenders and how many playoff teams with needs at the 2, $12m in cap space or however much of the proration is left, and assets of that make sense to the 76ers they are willing to part with are going to be available?

It makes sense for Philly because they have like $50m in cap space but the contract is going to have limited demand should they seek to trade it. Maybe there is a fit but its not going to be a bidding war.

You're reading way too hard into the worst possible case scenario regarding this contract. :lol

FuzzyLumpkins
07-02-2017, 01:32 AM
You're reading way too hard into the worst possible case scenario regarding this contract. :lol

Your statement does not even make any sense. I stated parameters that would be required:

A team with cap space to eat $10+m.
A team with a need at the 2.
A team willing to trade assets for an expiring contract ie a playoff team.
A team willing to part with assets that make sense for the 76ers.

That is not not "worst case" but rather how any deal makes sense. Worst case would be "there is no one with cap space," "nobody needs a 2," "no playoff teams want him," and "no team is offering something the 76ers want." It doesn't even need to be worst case anyway. If all of those parameters are not met then the deal doesn't happen.

He's not a young asset on a cheap contract that everyone is going to want.

Now, if something bad happens to Mills ...

Fuzzy, I'm not interested in being in one of your seemingly daily arguments, you pedantic ass. Obviously, worst case scenario implies that Reddick's one year deal could be moved should he be a total disaster and/or a team is willing to take him due to any one of the scenarios you highlighted. With the host of different scenarios that can and do play out every year over the NBA season, it isn't out of the question that Reddick's one-year deal could be moved just like any of the expirings that are traded every single damn year. It's only been mentioned as a possibility by several different analysts so far who've commented on the deal. I don't need to explain which teams can do so or why. You're smart enough to figure it out. Goodnight, you pedantic fuck. :lol

You used the word incorrectly. And exactly how was I flouting my education. "Worst case scenario" is a middle school concept. You used it wrong. I suppose if I was dealing with a 4th grader you would have a point.

And again all of those things are nonstarters. If they don't have cap room they cannot take him. If they don't need a 2 they won't want him. If they don't have anything the 76ers want they won't do the trade etc.

As for "all the other expirings" that doesn't make sense either. That $23m is commensurate of max deal from past years. There have net been deals like that that have been dumped. And think about it. Teams that are trying to dump salary are close to the cap and trying to free up space. Typically those deals are for half that as clearing a $10m deal at the end of the season is easy once you consider the proration and 25% adjustment. Not so with this whopper.

So basically all you have to support your claim is that you heard it from "several different analysts." We have already shown how you struggle to apply simple concepts. I don't think you can be counted on for recollections. The Yahoo articles I read on the subject saying it was a good deal for Philly did not say that. And taking things on supposed authority without understanding why is a piss poor way to go through life in general.

It's extremely beta to put it in your terms.

You were right on except the part about you not supporting your argument and it being a book. Unfortunately that is all you had.

Let's change topics. You're trying to pile on in creating a panic about the Mills resigning claiming that it is going to cost Murray minutes. This makes no sense to me.

If Murray plays well he will get the starting job. Patty has been a bench player his whole career.

The only way I see that happening is a worst case scenario from DJ's perspective. He would have to play poorly enough that he could not beat out Patty and then Parker would need to come back on time and play at a high level.

Even then I see Murray getting the 2014 Joseph role who got steady minutes.

I still believe this is not set in stone. Spurs would be dumb to commit that much money this early on the free agency when price for «not starters» players will drop significantly in a few days.
I hope this is an understanding between mills and the Spurs that if he can get a better offer take it, but if we can get a better player will also go for it.
I really don't see patty as any kind of leader of this team as i also didn't see Diaw as a leader. Cultural continuation my ass. He is a good backup, and that is it.

A $23m contract. The 76ers are going to be topped out on cap after they resign Covington. A team looking for an expiring is going to be looking to free up cap space. They are not taking on bad contracts to rebuild with Embiid, Saric, Fultz, etc in tow.

On the flipside a team looking for a top shooter is looking to contend. What playoff team is far under the cap that can eat a $12m or so proration. As stated before, the 76ers are unlikely to want to take on bad contracts and at the same time a contender is not going to want to give up meaningful contracts.

I never said it was unfathomable. It's just not likely there are going to be a lot of good fits.

He didn't "just sign" it. Also, it's a great deal for both camps. Philly gets top shooter and vet without committing long term, Reddick gets paid and, if it's a disaster, his contract is suddenly very tradable.

I hope this is an understanding between mills and the Spurs that if he can get a better offer take it, but if we can get a better player will also go for it.
I really don't see patty as any kind of leader of this team as i also didn't see Diaw as a leader. Cultural continuation my ass. He is a good backup, and that is it.

But but but Patty looks like a PG!

Only reason to defend:
- Young was willing to take discount to play in GS. Deal may have never been available to Spurs or others.
- Mills signing would have allowed Spurs to use MLE/BAE elsewhere. Signing Young would have taken up significant chunk of cap space or MLE. Yes, I realize they haven't signed anyone with the MLE yet.

It was wrong. It was obvious how this was going to play out on draft night, when word was Jazz were looking to acquire a starting PG. When they landed Rubio, that closed the book. Then word came Timberwolves were close to signing Teague, which made it obvious Hill was not only for the taking, but in the range I predicted all along. If they couldn't see that, they're fools . . . and if they were concerned with Kings offering significantly more, worst case scenario was signing Teodosic at a bargain.

$40 for 2 years with maybe a $2 hit on the third year cap would have been a godsend and a coup.

Hill realistically only has 2 years like this past one left.

2 years is perfect for what remains of his best years and insurance against injury, the perfect deal.

I also wonder why people insisting that Mills has a movable deal. If Mills shoots so poorly that he gets overtaken by Forbes or White and Murray .... Why would anyone else want to pick Mills up? An aging undersized back up who can't defend, run an offense, or shoot at a good enough clip in this scenario ... Nobody is going to dare pick up the remaining 3/37 or 2/25 or whatever without soaking the Spurs for picks and maybe dumping another toxic asset back on them.

He couldn't hit a shot to save his life in the OKC series. He wasn't shooting lights out in those playoffs at all. That's why I was very mad when the Spurs resigned him to the amount they've signed him. People are remembering wrong. He's never really had a great playoff run from start to finish, ever. 2014 he was good those last 3 finals game, and I'm thankful for that as those were masterpieces, but he wasn't that good at all for the majority of those playoffs. I'd say the 7 game series against the Clippers in 2015 was he best playoffs performance. The only problem with that is, Pop didn't play him enough to see if he could have sustained it.

Parker came out aggressive as fuck and had 14 points when he was subbed out towards the end of the first quarter. I remember the game, I don't know what you remember. He set the Spurs up for that entire game. He absolutely set the tone of the game with his aggression to start it.

Don't bother replying about this subject. I'm not interested in hearing anymore shit from you in regards to TP's game 7.

I agree with your ranking of Spurs players for the playoffs. Tony had some huge games. Game 3 in Portland was also a masterpiece from him, but overall, I'd put him 4th best Spurs playing of the playoffs tied with Splitter.

That second unit. :wow :lol

Whoa now in fairness to all the facts, the Spurs bench that year was elite and destroyed everyone's bench. So Parker played well against the Mav starters, who kept the game kind of close, but once the benches came in, Spurs bench destroyed the Mav bench. But I don't get into who gets credits for wins because it's a team game and stats don't tell the whole story, especially not on 2014, which was a team in ever sense.

Mills and Pau, 27% of the cap on two guys who in the playoffs won't be playing 25 minutes a game or closing games unless there's injuries.

And in 19-20 when Kawhi gets his 35% of the cap, then Kawhi, Aldridge, Mills and Pau's stretched contract will be over 70% of the cap, plus Parker's sure to be forthcoming loyalty deal. 70+% of the cap for two starters.

The dying moments of game 7? What year was this? Because last time we played the Mavs in a 7th game was 2014 and the Spurs blew them out. Parker was the guy that set the tone and dominated game 7.

It was definitely Parker. Dude has no idea what he's talking about. Look at the freaking headline from NBA.com lol

Glad I wasn't one of them. I soured on him in the 2016 OKC series. That was pretty much it for me with him. He showed me against the teams the Spurs need to beat to have a chance to win it all, he's useless against those teams. Before 2008, the Spurs never ever used to re-sign players to lucrative contracts that failed in the playoffs multiple times. I used to love that. If you have two separate playoffs where you don't perform, you were pretty much guaranteed to be gone. They weren't going to waste money on you.

Even Rashos deal made more sense.

Can't run a PnR to save his life.

Can't defend anyone ( as a PG hes ranked 89th in DRPM out of 94 qualified PGs).

He was one of 5 FAs to get 4 guaranteed years lol. And no, 12.5 wasn't his market last year. Rose, Rondo, Mack, Jack, Calderon all got 1 year or 1+1 deals for barely anything. Collison got a 1 +1 yr deal for 10 mil per and hes 2x the player Patty is. Even Hill got less guaranteed $ than Patty and hes 3x the player Patty is. Dont forget Livingston and his 24 Mil dollar deal over 3 years lol.

The PG position was and is most saturated in the NBA, meaning the supply is plentiful for back up point guards..which mean less demand..which drives down price. Spurs massively overpaid.

Mills has certainly been a disappointment, but there are two things to consider:

First is that the team is going to need Patty to play at a high level to reach its ceiling. It's the same thing with Parker, Green, Gay and Pau. They don't have a chance against the Warriors without their back court getting points, and out of the guards the team has Patty and Bryn are the only ones who have the potential to punch above their weight for a long stretch. Green can have a couple of great two-way games in a series, and Tony/Manu can turn the clock back for a bit. But only Patty is there to get points primarily, and he used to be really good at it. The team more needs him to play well than needs him gone, especially this year. Trading him and giving a permanent spot to Murray/Forbes isn't going to raise the team's ceiling this year.

Second is that when looking at opportunity cost, it is unhelpful to compare APYs. The team getting a better alternative than Patty would have involved going under the cap, which would have meant significantly more roster turnover. In a perfect world, both Mills and Gasol would have better deals. But this is likely the best roster the team could get personnel-wise outside of some minor moves (drafting Bell or bringing over Milutinov). Only substantial way would have involved finding positive trades for Parker and maybe Pau and Green.

Patty isn’t able to guard anyone in the warriors. If he were to have been paid for that matchup it was a mistake. He’s been pretty awful against them in recent memory. He’s got no size and will rush up bad shots while getting blown by or posted up by Livingston on the other end. He started this season picking up right where he left off in the warriors series: sucking. He hasn’t been able to light up the warriors in a long time that I can recall.

He was paid for det leadership and culture. It’s very clear that's what he said. I never liked this signing either. I only stopped whining about it bc Pop made a big investment of 4 years of him and 4 years is a long time to be hating a core member of the team. It was wearing me out to be complaining about it all the time so I just moved on past it, but I never liked the signing either and it even surprised me how expensive his contract was and the years guaranteed to him.

He’s going to have to show up big time in the playoffs but then again he said “no pressure” so ???

You're not looking at the overall picture.

Mills is a net negative against the Warriors even when his shot is on. Why is this? Because of how they exploit him routinely on the defensive end. The other 4 on defense have work harder by helping him with doubles whenever the Warriors or other smart/great teams target him. If they are not sending doubles, they are aware of the situation going on and they tend to play a step closer to the strong side action Mills is a part of -- which can leave wider/easier passing lanes for wide open 3's/layups. Spurs have to move more to recover on defense when they exploit Mills. This contributes to fatigue quicker, which in turn, can hurt the Spurs offense.

How can this hurt the offense? 1) More energy expended on defense as a whole, leads to more fatigue and inefficiency on offense -- how much exactly? I'm not sure and its hard to quantify, but its common sense if you've played basketball before. 2) With Patty on the floor against the best teams that optimize their O by exploiting the Spurs' Parker/Patty weakness, the Spurs' offense will face a set defense more often than not, because the opposition gets to optimize their offense -- which means more taking the ball out of the basket -- which means more facing a set defense for the Spurs. The best defense leads to easy offense. Bad defense leads to dependency on great half court offense ( which Spurs don't have).

For the upcoming rebuttal, " well defense isn't the problem for the Spurs, they have the 2nd best defensive rating". Yes, the Spurs have graded out as a top defense overall in the NBA -- but those stats are fools gold to a degree because they're blended in against a lot of poor teams that just play. These poor teams don't optimize every possession on either end of the floor like the great teams do when it matters most. So while this stat is great to see, I still take it with a grain of salt because I understand the context behind it and all the bad teams that simply don't pay attention to the simple details like the Spurs do consistently. Spurs attack weaknesses on both ends, 90% of other teams do not. That is what makes them so damn consistent.

At the end of the day, if Spurs traded Mills and promoted Murray and Forbes, that would give this team a better chance against the Warriors because they are not defensive liabilities ( if Forbes is implemented as the smallest guy on the court and not used at the wing). You can not have a defensive liability on the perimeter against the Warriors who has inferior size, if you do -- Warriors will attack it relentlessly and it will slowly eat away at the Spurs' overall game. Optimize the defense, where Spurs don't have to utilize doubles, where the Spurs don't have to constantly rotate over when Mills' guy gets at the rim. Optimize stops, optimize transition opportunities -- easy points and optimize the touches for Kawhi, LA, Gay, Manu and Kyle on offense. That recipe will give the Spurs the best chance against the Warriors.

With Parker starting against the Warriors, and maybe the new Rockets, Mills hurts more than helps. Spurs would be better against those teams without him because going with both Parker or Mills on the floor for 48 minutes would be a massive uphill battle against such smart and elite perimeter oriented offenses. Spurs might be able to get away with one having a 20 minute role, but both for 48 minutes? Spurs would be lucky to win a game.

Just a couple of points:

The game isn't played one-on-one. It's not the worst thing in the world to have Livingston shoot a higher percentage on a couple of his shots. Mismatches aren't a big deal. Patty on Shaun, Iggy or Young/McCaw is not going to be "worse" than Tony on Barnes. They can lose that match-up handily and still win games if Patty is scoring well.

The Spurs have almost always had a strong D despite never running a defensive-minded PG. PG defense isn't a big deal.

We already know Patty's ceiling and hopefully his floor. The Spurs need him to be as good as he was. That seems more possible than Murray being better than he he's ever. Dude was benched for a reason, despite his stats (which might be the most fool's gold thing about the team if used like some folks here do).

Not doubling might sound paradigmatic, but it's not something all that bad if you plan around it well enough. Golden State doubles all the time. Ignoring that Murray is NOT a good defender right now, him getting caught on Durant is going to bring help.

The "managing possessions" game is exactly why the Spurs are running two bigs and doing this slow post-up oriented game. A healthy Spurs team will be an above average team offensively and an elite one defensively.

Sick of the Bulls comparisons with the Warriors. Shaq didn't sign to team up with Jordan and Pippen. Warriors had one of the games best players sign with them when they went 73-9 the previous season and beat Durant's team in the playoffs. Shaq didn't leave Orlando and sign with the Bulls with Jordan and Pippen, he went to the Lakers. Warriors have so much elite talent (Curry, Durant, Thompson, Iggy, Green) and depth they will be a really tough out unless fatigue and injurys catch up. If people want to root for them fine, but with the Durant signing any 90's Bulls comparisons squashed and they lost to Cavs after going 73-9 without KD. They are an elite team in the NBA with a stacked roster, that's it.

They paid dear Bobo too but when he started slacking off he was gone. The team went a different direction. So, I never considered Patty someone you keep the entire 4 years necessarily, specially if the team needs to go in a different direction. If anything the fact he got an above average market deal makes it so they no longer owe him any debt in good conscience if they need to trade him. Now for this season, he needs to be better than he has been the past couple of playoffs and how he has been playing lately. And it’s not even about the shooting but careless stuff. TO that shouldn’t happen to someone with his experience. Throwing the ball at the feet of bigs, that sort of shit needs to change. He’s already not a good PNR PG, he needs to improve that stuff.

I still think the Spurs needed to go in a different direction but they couldn’t get who they really wanted so ....

Emotional overreaction by you and this is coming from someone who hates the Warriors and actually grew up during the 90's watching the bulls. I agree with everything you said but I wasn't comparing the teams in my original post but comparing their levels of POPULARITY among bandwagon fans. Unfortunately I see the Warriors generating the same levels of bandwagon fandom that those Bulls teams did. In every game I watch on TV I see bandwagon warrior fans fill up opposing teams arenas much like the bulls bandwagon fans did during the 90's. I know casual fans who stopped watching the NBA years ago and now watch it again due to the Warriors. It's like I have said in a previous post that Curry looking like a harmless 10 year old has attracted a lot of these casual idiots. The league knows that these casuals and bandwagon fans will watch the Warriors regardless of who they face or how boring the match up is. Look at last year when Kawhi got injured and how the media and league were very happy about it despite a series that would have gone to 6-7 games ended up being a boring sweep. I didn't bother to watch last year's finals because I felt the Warriors would sweep the Cavs and it came across to me as a very lopsided matchup. It was the first finals since 1990 that I didn't watch and keep in mind I didn't start watching basketball until '91. Judging by the results I didn't miss anything but that series got the highest finals ratings since the Jordan era.

It sucks ass but I feel the Warriors could play my hschool basketball team and beat them 200-0 and they would still get high ratings. Warriors have a ridiculous level of popularity that I haven't seen since the Jordan bulls. I hope for our sake that the popularity doesn't last as long as it did with the 90's bulls. If the Warriors go back to the finals and sweep the Cavs the ratings will be a good indicator to see if people are starting to grow bored of the Warriors. What Durant did was a low character bitch move by joining the Warriors and he ended up ruining the game for hardcore real NBA fans but in the league and networks eyes that doesn't matter since he was able to attract a lot of casual and bandwagon fans.

Warriors have too many bandwagon fans all across the country who will still watch the playoffs even if the Warriors win every game 140-0. Curry looking liking a 10 year old has massive appeal to people. The Warriors popularity among bandwagon fans all over the country reminds me of the 90's bulls popularity. I don’t doubt they have a lot of bandwagon fans. I just think the energy and excitement has and will continue to evaporate with the “140-0” non-competitive feel the NBA has now. The Bulls were a great team and had a lot of fans worldwide. There was an energy and excitement going on that changed the profile of the NBA. Like someone mentioned ‘Shaq’ didn’t join the Bulls. They lost on occasion.

My point is if no one can compete with Baby Face and crew then it will not be good for the NBA. Maybe I live in a vacuum, but the World Series and the Super Bowl were nationally a million times more celebrated. I didn’t see people paying much attention to the Finals. The whole playoffs involving GSW were really boring.

If the Warriors go back to the finals and sweep the Cavs the ratings will be a good indicator to see if people are starting to grow bored of the Warriors.

I agree with you that the Super Bowl and World series was much more exciting than the Finals . Last year throughout the whole entire playoffs I was just like you when it came to believing that nobody could be watching this bs but the Nielsen ratings revealed that the Warriors got the highest Finals ratings since the Jordan Bulls so it was disappointing. I guess that the ratings were high because they were a lot of idiots that thought Lebron could take out the Warriors but it was still disappointing to see. One thing I have noticed is ESPN is desperately trying to sell and market a Cavs-Warriors finals rematch by saying the Cavs have a chance with IT when we all know that's bs. If the re-match happens I hope the Warriors sweep the Cavs. I'm tired of this BS matchup and would enjoy the comedy of ESPN trying to spin how the Warriors going 16-0 is great for the league.

Looks like I underreacted to this abortion of a contract. I still can't understand why anyone would ever pay money to a fat Mills. If Patty was in shape I'd have taken the chance on the deal but when he's hiding his chins under that heavy beard he's fooling no one. Well, no one but RC apparently.

What does it say about a player who signs the biggest deal of his life and then comes in a big fatass, declares that he has no pressure to perform, and also declares that he's only being paid make-up money for the past.

One word:

Cancerous.

Any other player on any other team does it and they get rightfully called a cancer.

Mills is a cancer on this team

Tbh, no LMA, Kawhi, or Gay is an even bigger reason why you can't lay an egg out there and put up 0 points. Mills plays a sixth man type role and it's not like anyone was taking his shots. 0 in that situation is inexcusable.
