    Hi, I'm new here, and a big Patty Mills fan ever since I seen him in Portland last year. The Spurs will be my favourite team now!
    I've heard he will play on Tuesday night and am excited how well he will integrate into the Spurs system, I think better than Blazers system.

    I think the Spurs system contemplate his style and Patty Mills knows the Spurs assistant coach really well (Brett Brown coached a sucessful Australian National team numerous times and still coaching), , i think he can fit into any team because he is such a friendly, humble, down to earth guy.

    He would always be the first one to high-five his team mates and reach out to the fans and make the arena more happy. That being said, he was the 'Fan Favourite' of Portland. Off-court, he always arranged outings with the team going bowling, going restaurant. He believes off-court chemistry is very important because it translates to on-court performance.

    Despite his personality, his skills are must have for this team. He is lightning fast and likes to shoot the basket a lot, very confident and likes to be leader. Another point is energy, everytime he went on court, he would bring a big energy presence to the fans and team. If gets the oppurtunity, he is like a bear to honey, he will go for it!!!

    Here are some videos of him!!

    I think it's been said, but he seems like a perfect fit for the Spurs. Hope he does well. Welcome aboard.

    sounds good
    the type of character spurs need/like
    he also seems to have a tony parker type style so the team shouldnt fall of the cliff with him in like they did with joseph

    Great post man. Seems like a cool guy.

    As usual though I am most interested about his ON the court contribution. Hopefully he can fit in well on the court.

    I actually wanted the Spurs to draft him instead of Jack Mclinton. He was still there on the board, and I thought he had some potential. I was a little disappointed that the Spurs didn't take him back then as I thought he had some similarities with TP in regards to his speed.

    If Patty Mills wasn't of Aboriginal descent, would Australia have moved faster in giving him a visa? It's been more than a week. That's getting pretty ridiculous, tbh.

    interesting theory, truth be told, there is nothing Aussies love more than sports, id be saying its more an issue at the other end.

    Politicians here would come under serious public backlash if they were holding up his visa, he is a favourite son.

    Ehh it happens, I'm more of a team guy than players, but I've always been a fan of random players. Shane Heal, Danilo Gallinari, Jan Vesely, etc.

    His work visa will be issued by US authorities, not Australia.

    Yeah, I am also looking forward to him playing for us I know Tony is going to be happy. I think he will help us when we get in those shooting slumps he can be a key to jump starting us.

    Welcome to the Spurs family and don't worry about Twelve...He suffers from Penis Envy...
