Re: Astonishing FAILURE: Patty Mills first 8 games of the 17-18 season
It’s that car scrubber on top of his head! Buzz it off and we get the Mills of Old!
Seriously though, I know everyone hated the move, but I personally thought the contract might encourage him to take this team and rock the PG position....boy have I been wrong thus far

AIDs isn't seen as much of an issue here in Cali. So maybe SAC or one of the LA teams will make a deal with us.

Re: Astonishing FAILURE: Patty Mills first 8 games of the 17-18 season
Possibly the worst two off season signings in our history... Lord knows the motivation behind them... And the sad thing is, pop refuses to sit them for their bad play because he is hoping they somehow (one year older and fatter) become good players, thus justifying the signings... But he is so shortsighted... We Won't beat golden state with Gasol and mills playing big minutes, and all the while silent but deadly Kawhi is there looming at the trash he has to carry on his shoulders with his contract coming to an end... The front office signings and pop coaching won't do any favors when it comes to signing back kawhi... I genuinely think kawhi wants the old guys to go, and the young guys to play... How many times will we watch mills get posted up, and point guards block or rebound over Gasol?
All the while we have the opportunity to let Murray sink or swim by starting him, and pop benches him for Patty mills... Lmfao...Murray gets a turnover, and he blows up, but Manu gets to throw the ball directly to the other team, take bad shots, and lose the ball as he drives to the bucket and falls... But he makes one hustle play or one layup, and he is a warrior... Well the NBA and other teams don't give a shit if you're 40...theyre gonna beat u just as bad in the postseason

Golden State?!?! I am hoping that we can compete with the Blazers, Jazz and Lakers by season's end.
Our only hope is that the Holts will come out of hibernation and can PATFO. They are clearly beyond their shelf-life. Frankly, I believe it started with the LMA signing. But the deals they gave 50Mills and Gasoft are irrefutable proof of their incompetence... nay, malfeasance.

Re: Astonishing FAILURE: Patty Mills first 8 games of the 17-18 season
Worst contract ever. Finally some bitching, whining and complaining when it is truly justified.
-
Re: Astonishing FAILURE: Patty Mills first 8 games of the 17-18 season
Yea he's been awful so far this year. But 8 games is too small a sample size to make a real judgment on him. We're also still missing our best player.. (not an excuse for Patty but I guarantee he starts to play better if/when Kawhi returns, as will everyone else). I'll wait a bit before completely condemning him.

Re: Astonishing FAILURE: Patty Mills first 8 games of the 17-18 season
The I told you so's are annoying. We aren't the ones who gave Patty the contract, that's on the front office. Some of us just choose to support the team regardless and not bitch about it. It's sports, and it's intended to be entertainment. If you're a fan and you're getting legitimately upset because the team you support handed out a bad contract than maybe you should reevaluate why it has such a major impact on your life. I get it, Patty Mills sucks and he has a terrible contract, now can we stop bitching about it and just see what happens?

i didn't mind the contract in the context of what everyone else was getting. I thought this was just the going rate.

Unfortunately, Ginobili looks done for good this time. Been saying, think this is the succession plan in the back court: Ginobili (presumably) retires after this season, Murray takes his role until Parker retires, then graduates to starter, with White taking his role.
Pop/Buford started drinking their own Kool-Aid post '14, thinking they had all that success from '12-'14, culminating with the championship, because of character, culture, system etc. As if they had stumbled upon some magic elixir, when in reality, talent wins. Even though that team did it unconventionally, they had the best depth of talent and that along with their unparalleled combination of IQ, unselfishness and luck (the Ibaka injury) pushed them over the top. Sure, those other things helped, but they didn't win because of them. No longer having the combination of things should have placed an even higher priority on talent and instead they succumbed to believing their own hype.

And what exactly would you have done differently?
What expectations did you set out after they won in 14'?

All the shit I've been griping about the past few years.
Was obviously hoping the old guys could maintain their then current level for as long as possible, but beyond that didn't really have any. Leonard's unforeseen emergence and the Aldridge signing changed that. Sure, the emergence of an all-time team doesn't help matters, but they have done a lousy job the past few years. Totally either ignorant to where the game was going or arrogant enough to think that they were smarter than everyone else and could do it differently.

I think every Spur fan has frustrations..that's totally normal..
But tbh it's all about realistic expectations and holding those expectations true..
As you said Spurs were fortunate to win in 14'...but so has every championship team. I've been frustrated when PATFO have elected to "run it back" after winning titles..they've failed to repeat and it's the only knack they have as an organization. But I understand why they have done so and knew they have the best interest of winning. This organization doesn't try to sell tickets they just try to win and I respect the hell out of it.
They got LMA because he was needed for obvious reasons and he was the right move. I respect that they've attempted to lure CP3 and Durant..even tho they weren't the favorites they wanted the "talent" you're seeking. They'll do the same thing for LeBron this offseason. Contracts to Pau/Mills suck but I think it's naive to think they're automatically gonna play it out in SA.
I dunno what your expectations were for this year but it's pretty much played out almost exactly what I thought regarding Spurs.. If there's no Kawhi we ain't gotta chance and we truly don't know how we match up with GSW...
I mean who would've thought Spurs were gonna make it to the WCF the following year after Timmy retired??? If I told you that 5 years ago you would've called me crazy...

He needs to get in shape. If he gains 15 more pounds then he is going to look like the old version of anthony anderson.
The blackish version of anthony anderson is slimmer than patty.
