to much of a defensive liability
This team needs as much scoring as it can get with Manu sucking or out. Bring back the Stax
to much of a defensive liability
As opposed to say neal?
he sags off his man worse than neal
but does he sag off his man worse than Parker and Green?
Oh yeah, because Neal is a much better defender than him...riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhh hhhhtt.
patty mills also can't really get much without manu feeding him tbh
and is about 3 inches shorter
Mills would be a welcome addition as opposed to the Neal brings. There's like three Bonner's on the team right now. At least Mills has a somewhat balanced scoring output when he's on the court
Mills has the same flaws as Neal..if he received the same amount of minutes, the complaints would be the same..
And he's shorter, to top it off. Do not want, tbh.
Mills is quicker than Neal. If he worked on catching off screens and getting open off the ball and unlike Neal just shot when he was open, he'd get open more often and be harder to contain
I don't mind Mills getting minutes, the team needs offense, but most posters here will eventually complain about his defense and chucking, tbh..
Not winning with Mills > not winning with Neal
We're not winning either way, but this way we get some cool heroics, less hero ball and more Ozzy Ozzy Ozzy Oi Oi Oi
Mills will get his shot, with Manu down he'll be running point once TP, DeColo, CoJo, and Neal all get hurt.
Mills is much, much quicker than Neal.
Trade him to Denver![]()
Most posters here will have their favourites and will like a little girl if things don't go as they think it should.
How about we do a sign and trade in the off season for Manimal. The numbers would work.![]()
For all of Pop's CIA thinking one thing so predictable that you could set ya clock by is the eventual return of Gary and the Red Mamba in the rotation.
Who is the best between Mills, Joseph and De Colo is quite debatable because none has really stand out positively or negatively. It's hard to say that Pop has made a mistake by going away from Mills because he isn't clearly better than the other two.
Giving Neal minutes at the SG spot to Mills isn't a that obvious choice too. Neal has been injured and his post all star FG% is .30, but he remains a player that is superior on the paper. A relatively healthy Neal could help a lot Spurs in the playoffs especially with Manu being out or limited. As long as there is hope regarding Neal's health, switching from Neal to Mills is a difficult choice to make.
Mills deserves a lot of props for his at ude. He isn't in an easy situation where he is caught in a logjam and doesn't play while not having been clearly outplayed. Staying a positive influence in that situation instead of mourning about his personal status, is a nice quality.
I think both of the aussies could have had big positive impacts and really helped the spurs struggling 2nd unit. Mills brings the quickness and Baynes brings the size, two things the spurs are a bit short on. Not to mention both have great at udes.
IDK, just about ANYONE ON THE TEAM would have had the more sense to pass the ball to a WIDE OPEN STEPHEN JACKSON UNDER THE BASKET than that Neal. loooooooooooooooooooooow bbiq, calls his own number way too much. His only redeeming quality is that he's cheap, same with bllair.
The Spurs have always seemed to close out games badly, basically at this point, if the other team has the ball with the game tied or us up by one and there is less than 30 seconds on the clock I basically write it off as us losing, which we usually do, and if we need to hit the last shot for a win or tie I don't have much hope in that either. It's probably just magnified by the closeness of the last handful of games, but it just seems that we have constantly been blowing leads with less than four minutes to go in the game with stupid turn overs and poor shot selection. We make other teams look clutch. Really started to notice this trend with the Jerrett Jack 3 pointer... Would be interesting to see how many game's we've won on the last possession of a game vs. how many we have lost on the last possession of a game this year.
He's a defensive liability? Apparently, you haven't watched too many Spurs games this month.
