sounds legit, tbh

Probably not far from the truth if that scenario were to actually play out imho.
Re: Is Patty Mills the best teammate ever?
It's funny how almost everyone on spurstalk agrees that Tony has lost a step and is no longer at his peak, but the OP is such a foaming-at-the-mouth player fan/hater that if Tony plays reasonably well, the only thing he can think to do is start a thread about how Mills is a really nice guy... which is another thing everyone on spustalk agrees with. Parker and Leonard both played well, both shot 50%, both had great +/-. That's a good thing. Parker scored 2 more points than Kawhi in 10 fewer minutes, and Kawhi had 14 rebounds in 33 minutes. Again, good news. But somehow the OP will see only the negative in it, just as he does with last year's title run.
I wonder if there are Hawks fans right now who look at +/- numbers, and finding that DeMarre Carroll has the least impressive numbers of all the starters, say "DeMarre Sucks! Get rid of him!!!" Forget that Atlanta's having a great year (like the Spurs last year)-- the numbers say Carroll isn't as good as Millsap!

Really, is there anything more mainstream than starting threads on which the vast middle will agree?

:lol Exactly. And is there anything more edgy than actively rooting against a player on your favorite team, and being disappointed when he plays well?
Re: Is Patty Mills the best teammate ever?
Since when does calling a bad player a bad player mean one is openly rooting against him? The entire forum shits on Belli (deservedly so) but I'm sure noone will be upset if he hits a big shot. It's really no different for Enrique.

You got the freak OP pegged.
Mills really does seem to be a nice guy.
He still towel waves and now his is an integral part of the team.
No more fat Patty towel waves because that's all he can do.
Boris, mills, manu, and Tiago seem to hang together quite a bit if photos tell a true story. I would definitely find my way to that group. They seem like some of the brighter funnier guys that are indeed humble.

Stop shitting up this thread with your fanboy drivel. This is a thread about Patty and ONLY Patty. And here you go babbling about how Tony doesn't get enough respect. Do we have to glorify TP in every thread in order to make you happy? There are plenty of topics about Tony on the first page - take your rant elsewhere.
:rolleyes player fans

Again, for the millionth time, I'm not a Parker "player fan." I've said dozens of times he is not the same player, he has lost a step, should shoot more threes, and there should be more minutes for Mills and Cojo. I just don't actively root against players on my favorite team. That's the definition of a "Player Fan," the situation where you like one guy so much that you'd actually want another player to have bad performances to prove you're right.

He didn't throw teammates under the bus from what I recall. Did he let them down sometimes on the court though?

ha I remember reading some in-flight magazine (Hemispheres?) & Jack Haley was on the cover w/ his arms crossed. Story about Jack being Rodman's besty & an underrated part of the Rodman trade to Chicago: I think they kinda credited Haley w/ making Rodman a valuable piece in Chicago by "keeping him in line." :lmao

Can you make me laugh please?
Re: Is Patty Mills the best teammate ever?
Falling out of the rotation?
Re: Is Patty Mills the best teammate ever?
Patty should be fine. Either they're trying to find someone to take Joseph or Pop is playing Tony more to get him into rhythm.
I doubt Pop would give up on Patty after he had one of the greatest Finals performances. It doesn't make any sense at all, especially since Patty has looked great this season.
Re: Is Patty Mills the best teammate ever?
Pop was drunk, tbh. Joseph can't even sniff Mills' jock...
