50-Mill-stones around the team's neck. How can we dump this albatross?

[spursistan]

Making of this basketball equivalent of Energizer bunny rabbit the most overpriced backup PG in the league in an offseason a bunch of them went for the minimum was stupid then; it is looking beyond comical now..

Paddy fuckin Mills has fleeced the Spurs and has many fooled by his so-called good teammate/character guy persona.

The reality is, his actual contribution to the team over the years barely surpasses the bodywork of a Matt Bonner..

Time to look for ways to dump this piece of shit contract before he murders his remaining value with his current play after clearly taking the summer off..

Never have I thought i would turn into a Mills-hater, but here I am..

Patty cashed in on that good season he had 3 years ago.

How many times do I have to keep saying this. I was saying it all throughout free agency before and after he got re-signed - he never had a great season a few years ago. He had 3 good finals games. That's it. He was average the rest of those playoffs. He couldn't hit a shot to save his life in the OKC series in 2014 (did have a good second half of game 6, will give him props for that). Shit the bed against OKC in 2016 and was worthless after Kawhi went down in 2017 playoffs too. What Basketball specific measure did the Spurs use to re-sign him for that amount of money? It's like they didn't look at anything Basketball related at all when they re-signed him.

[sasaint]

Patty's playing like he knows he can never live up to the contract, so why bother?

I think he's playing like he knows he was grossly overpaid and the weight of that knowledge is crushing.

[YGWHI]

They’ll probably ask Leonard to leave money on the table so they can keep him.

While I'm sure that Patty's the Spurs player who misses Kawhi most because Green/Kyle/Manu/Rudy don't have Kawhi's gravity in the perimeter...

If Kawhi has to take less money just to allow the Spurs to keep shitty Pau/Patty/MyTouches LMA/ a new Parker's loyalty contract...I swear I would rather see him on other team that values Kawhi more.

I never ever thought that I would say something like that but it's is how I feel right now.

[Ice009]

You can bet your ass Kawhi is watching this very closely. Teams could even be calling him now on the down low. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a call from someone with the Lakers or Clippers after tonight's game, telling him they will wait for him if he wants to come over when he's a free agent.

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.

[Ice009]

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.

Looks like Patty was on the patty melt diet plan all off-season.

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

[Ice009]

Nothing but shrimps and snags (Australian slang for sausage) on the barbie after that contract.

[r0drig0lac]

We should’ve gave that money to Simmons + another role player, but nope

[Russo21]

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 shit contract. After Patty signed that deal so many good point guards signed tiny deals. 50 million etc were they thinking.

[Russo21]

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.

[FkLA]

I don't think Pau is movable at this point; as for for Mills, it is going to take a first rd round pick to salary dump his ass..

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

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.

Exactly. But I can't blame Paddy too much. He's out there trying to justify his $50M contract and failing spectacularly thanks to the PATFO hanging him out to dry. . If he was getting paid < $5M per, I could live with some of his deficiencies knowing that he could be replaced in the rotation at any time. Unfortunately, the Spurs are stuck with no good albatross for the next four years. He never should have had shoulder surgery because he's been ass ever since.

If he keeps starting maybe he can run some of that fat off and he'll move from worst to second worst.

Dare to dream!

Pop started Patty, I wonder why...To boost his confidence? Or just because DJ doesn't look either? Didn't hear postgame interviews but I'd like to know the reason.

Dejonte can show inconsistency. After all hes's just 20 y o but again, I wonder why Pop benched him after only 7 games.

[Capt Bringdown]

If Patty is ineffective without Leonard on the court, WTF was he signed for mega bucks?

He can't use the fruit of their labor on one player. Anyways it's a good motivational tool for Dejounte.

this aussie fat fuck really did it, worst point guard in the entire league. :lmao :bang

For reference, RJ’s PER was 11.15 when we shipped his faggot ass to the Bay in 2012

[FkLA]

I've only watched half of tonight's game so far but the most fucked up part about Fatty's deal is that Pop had an upgrade right in front of him for a fraction of the price.

Forbes is that same type of spark plug player off the bench but hes bigger, more athletic, and has a solid in-between game. Couldve had Juice and Tyreke Evans for the same price they paid Fatty smh.

If you want 50Mills to be expendable the other guards have to be balling much better than him and he has to continue sucking.

The underlining factor is that Juice and Evans are quite ball dominant to truly play at their best. That meant taking the ball from Manu and breaking up the Mills/Manu tandem. I don't think Pop was even remotely interested in that. Juice knew it and he also didn't want to be a part of that... and Evans took a measly 3 mills to play in Memphis which were so lacking in perimeter play outside of Conley....

I know it's going to be unpopular, but it's the truth. HOpefully 50Mills and Manu rectify their start to the season and pull through bc Pop isn't breaking them up now or until Manu retires.

Manu is doing just fine. He can look overwhelmed against the elite but it's expected at 45 years old. Plus he's making peanuts.

Mills's been so fuckin' brutal and useless that it would be a disservice to Pau to lump his equally awful contract with him..

For all of the gripe about Gasol, he still can find more ways to contribute than Mills even at his age: a 7footer with 6 fouls who is an elite rim protector in standstill position, great shooter, passer, adequate rebounder etc..

[Capt Bringdown]

When you're paid that kind of money, you have to deliver. Patty can't handle the pressure. On the court, that is - in the game of life, this dude is an absolute star!
Getting paid 50 million when you don't deserve it = winning.

For what its worth, Mills has been balling out in December, hitting 50% of 3's (on four attempts) after a poor November.

Just because he has been shooting 50% since November, doesnt mean hes been ballin'.

Shooting is saturated across the league ( more so than ever) and that's the only thing he's good at on the court. Once the games start to count against the top teams in May and June, the smart teams can defend him with their eyes closed, all while exploiting the hell out of him on D.

It's not like his shooting falls off a cliff in the playoffs, it actually improves; for the Spurs, he's a career 40.5% 3pt shooter in the playoffs and has a 59% tru-shooting percentage in the postseason (league average is around 54%)

He shot 13/23 (56.5%) on 3's in the '14 Finals and the following year, shot 16/28 (57% ) on 3's against the Clippers in that 7 game series.

He criticism of his contract is deserved but he is a better than average shooter on a team that values what he brings to it.

What are his shooting stats in other playoffs apart from his best two series (which are the only ones you mentioned). In 2014, he couldn't hit the side of a barn in the OKC series and they were also poor in 2016 against OKC too.

You kinda handpicked his two best series. What are his shooting stats in the 2014 playoffs overall and what are they overall in 2016 and 2017 playoffs? He's not worth that money and IMO he's also not that great of a shooter in the playoffs apart from a couple of good series.

What did he shoot vs. OKC in 16' and last year vs. the Warriors?

Rockets didn't play defense last year, and they weren't a real contender. I'm talking about real teams that play elite defense when it matters like the Durant/Westbrook Thunder and the Warriors. They shut him down, while exploiting the hell out of him on the defensive end.

So he shoots a higher percentage vs. 15' Clippers and 17' Grizzlies and Mike D'Antoni's Rockets... I wonder why.

And the Heat in 14', that series was so damn lopsided. Spurs did whatever they wanted to do offensively and routinely broke down the Heat's defense of old ass Rashard Lewis, James Jones, Mike Miller and Ray Allen. Wade was banged up too. It was LeBron and Bosh and a bunch of old hags vs. probably the best Spurs team ever. Mills had wide open transition look after wide open transition look as the Spurs were already routing the Heat by 15+. Mills literally just caught wide open spot up 3 after wide open spot up 3, none were off the dribble in PnRs, none were from his creating ability.

So he made wide open looks vs. the Heat when Spurs were up by 20+, not impressive.

When competition gets tight vs. good defenses, Mills gets shut down.

That's the tru-shooting percentage was for, his 59 TS% in 1108 playoff minutes for the Spurs is ridiculous tbh.

In 2016 he shot 3/11 (27%) against OKC
In 2014 he shot 5/19 (27%) against OKC


13-14-.405 (23 Games)

14-15-.571 (7 Games)

15-16-.361 (10 Games)

16-17-.360- (16 Games)


Career 40.2 % 3pt with the Spurs, in 73 playoffs that's pretty damn good, overall tbh,

btw, I haven't defending his contract I just pointed out that after a horrid start, he has rebounded and is having a typical Mills season.

I think your moving the goal posts, tbh you can't blame him for torching mediocre to above average playoff opponents and struggling against some of the better defenses, that feels like a "Well Duh" type of thing.

On the whole he has been an excellent shooter in the playoffs, I feel like the numbers back that up pretty definitively.

Btw that 2015 Clippers team ultimately won that series because they did an much better job on defense than they . They had a defensive rating of 105 per possession (15th in the league) but they only allowed 103 points per possession which would've been sixth or seventh that year. Mills shot 16/28 from 3 that series and came up big in game 3.

He was fantastic during the final two games of that Heat series, he went 9-14 from 3 in 33 minutes during those games.

There was a play that stuck out during those games; Mills ran a high screen and roll with Splitter but Miami blitz the screen Anderson stepped up to keep him from launching from 25 feet while Chalmers (it may have been Cole) was trying to recover after running into Splitter. Mills saw Anderson and turned back and went in the opposite direction and nailed a 27 footer before either of them could get to him.

I remember the Heat's body language as the walked up the floor after that play, they defended it perfectly and Mills just buried a deep three instead of giving it up to Splitter like the blitz was intended for to.

[SAGirl]

Austin Rivers ran a treadmill on Mills in the Clippers series. Basically won a game for the Clippers that way.

Mills is fools good bc as much as he give you offensively even when he's insanely hot, he will give it right back on defense. Then when he's not hot you lose. Moreover, he's not a true creator. If he's the recipient of someone else's playmaking he will make some open shots. Otherwise he's going to be chucking jumpshots while coming off a screen, not creating for teammates like he did in 2016 against OKC and 2017 GSW.

What that tells us is that he's a roleplayer with a niche role.

Hopefully Dijon continues to develop tbh. There have been games that he's been a clearly superior PG to Mills even in his current streaky and still developing season.

No at most it was a JJ Redick type deal: One season at a very bloated price, with a wink wink to reup him the other years at a lower price. It might have amounted to 50 Mills overall if the first season was as high as JJ Redick’s deal but the Spurs should have let him go at that price.

And besides the price they needed a better player at the spot. I can’t imagine how he will look when Manu retires.

who is writing this PATFO fluffer trash ? :lol



It didn't take Mills long to decide. On Jul. 1 -- the first day of free agency - he signed a four-year deal to remain with San Antonio (http://www.espn.com.au/.aunba/story/_/id/19780399/patty-mills-inks-new-multi-year-deal-stay-san-antonio-spurs). He was rewarded for his years of productive activity on the court, but that didn't mean the decision to re-sign was a given.
"I think I owed it to myself to see what was out there, and although it [re-signing] came quick I thought I might be cheating myself if I didn't see what the market was like," Mills tells ESPN.


more like saw "what was out there" was no team offering even half of the deal he got and signing as fast as he could at 12:01


"I knew what I was getting into when I re-signed back for another four years, but it's more than just numbers with what I'm trying to bring now," he says. "I'm a leader, and a leader of a group that's trying to push the Spurs' culture on to the next generation.
"Whatever my numbers are is beside the point, because this is a big-picture thing and the organization has been successful for a long time so we gotta make sure it keeps moving forward."

Quite possibly the worst 4th quarter performance I've seen since 6.

[$pursDynasty]

Kemba for Patty and Laverne. Basically equal salary. Why would Hornets do it? Maybe we throw in some front office help for Jordan.

The only way he gets traded is if Pop finds out he voted for Trump.

[ceds]

This aboriginal tramp does have big balls, ya gotta admire him for that.
Getting the Spurs to pay him 50 mil was a straight-up gangsta move.

This

locked up a 50M payday at 12.01 like a boss

Is now the highest paid aboriginal / Torres straight islander ever.

[Capt Bringdown]

The dude is such a off-the-chart defensive liability that he doesn't even belong on an NBA court.
LOL, Spurs paid 50 mill for a guy who isn't good enough for the NBA. Worst signing in team history, and perhaps the death knell of the Pop era in SA.

Fucking cost us the game, or at least a chance at winning the game. Useless player that gets hot once in a fucking blue moon. Other than that, HE IS USELESS ON THE COURT. I don't give a fuck what he does off the court. The Spurs front office are retards for signing someone based on off the court stuff. Hey retards, the game is played on the court, not off the court. Don't go signing loser players for big contracts when they're shit players on the court.

Get rid of this fuck. Never should have re-signed him in the first place.

The good news of that stat is we know this team is beast mode whenever Patty plays even decent.

They depend heavily on him for scoring.

Truth is Rudy has missed a lot of games now, Manu obviously is now injured but he needs his rest games in between B2B too... Kawhi obviously.. but that goes without saying.

Right now, they depend on him for scoring a lot, and he's streaky, and if he's not shooting well there is nothing else he does well. Pop said they have laid too much on him.. then they need a different guy.

0.850 ball when hes on. :wow

Not even on; merely 40 FG.

He's only on once in a blue moon = very rarely. All those stats are rubbish. He's virtually useless on the Basketball court. He was re-signed for the wrong reasons, with those reasons being off the court stuff.

I'd like you to leave with him. Getting rid of both of you would make me happy even if the season tanks.

Considering all the injuries, MVPatty been doing a great fucking job. Never getting traded. :lmao

Patty has never been consistent. He can't be because his offense is solely dependent on 3s going in. He can't do anything else.

How can you rely on consistent O from a player that can only spot up?

His shot is off 60% of games.

[MaNu4Tres]

Spurs going to be .400 team if the team relies heavily on Patty offense..tbh.

[dabom]

This faggot was getting on MVPatty for not shooting 60% FG. FG...Consistently. :lol

what other guard are they going to for scoring?
Tony has been putting up 2-4 points on bad efficiency lately.
Dejounte is inefficient himself.
Bryn's minutes vary, he's on and off himself. None of them get to the line... Dejounte would be the best bet to get to the line but he loves the waist twisted one handed floater...

Manu is their best. They obviously miss Kawhi. But this deficiency has been known since b4 this season which is why it's so frustrating the loyalty/culture schtick.

It's collective...really it is. Patty isn't good enough to be a go to guy. If you force him to that role he falls flat on his face.

He takes way too many shots each game to not be impactful offensively... sometime takes the most of any bench player.. has been 2nd or 3rd in shots a few times... not doing research on this, just off memory...

I think that is why you see when he shoots well Spurs have a better chance... they do depend on him scoring and if he isn't scoring what does he do? what's he out there for?

but I get your point. they need a better player and that guy isn't in the roster .. and it isn't Tony either.

The stat needs could use some extra context, such as who were the teams he was getting 41% or more against in the wins and the losses? Well, 12 of those hot 41% or above shooting nights were against lotto teams, and some really bad ones

Lottery teams bolded

wins:
Brooklyn
@ Brooklyn
Charlotte
@ Charlotte
@ Chicago
Dallas
@ Dallas
Detroit
LA Clippers
@ Memphis
Miami
Phoenix
@ Phoenix
@ Portland
Sacramento
Sacramento
Toronto

losses: @ Houston, OKC, Philadelphia (all playoff teams)

AND

How did he perform when Kawhi was playing at least 25 minutes a game? 25 minutes seems a nice number, just over half an NBA game. After all, Kawhi's presence should make it easier for him, right?

5 games. Only shot over 40% once, going 50% against the lotto Nets.

0%(0-1) against the Pistons.
33% against the lotto Knicks.
16.7% against lotto Phoenix.
33.3% against lotto Denver.

good points objective... only makes the stat more damning.

We've only been saying how Patty mostly gets off vs bad undisciplined dumb defensive teams who leave him open for 3 years now.

Great digging objective.

No he does not.

Even Danny averages more shots than Patty.

Spurs have 8 players who average between 6-8 shots a game.

It's collective. If Patty ever has a role on a team where he gets 12-15 shots, that team will be picking in the top 5 of the draft the following summer.

In 35 games as a bench player, Mills has led the team in attempts off the bench 9 times, and tied for attempts once.

He's second in field goal attempts per game as a bench player behind Rudy Gay

Exactly.. this is what I remember.
With Rudy Gay having missed about 3 weeks of games already maybe I have some recency bias, but I do remember him taking a lot of shots.. like tonight for example enough that it stood out. Needless to say the team misses Rudy as well. but that is just yet another way to hide the bad PG play IMO.
