Patty Mills shoulder injury true - out 7 months

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

A shoulder injury has forced a devastated Patrick Mills to withdraw from Australia's world cup campaign as the NBA championship-winner faces up to seven months out of action.

Fairfax Media can reveal Mills will have surgery in the coming days to repair the rotator cuff in his right shoulder.

I've had that injury. Took me two years to regain all my strength. For an athlete like mills, he should be good by playoffs.

[daslicer]

Awful injury 7 months wow that is pretty bad. That means he won't come back until around the start of 2015. This hurts the spurs from a depth stand point.

[Prime Time]

If he re-signs with the Spurs, it could be a blessing in disguise. Gives them more time to develop Anderson and perhaps even Joseph, whose improvement has been underrated.

cory joseph plus someone else

[DesignatedT]

Hmm

[xmas1997]

I don't think this bodes well for his free agency as far as other teams are concerned.

[ducks]

spurs should have got Livingston DAMM IT

and if joseph emerges then Patty's stock will lower smh this was his best time for him to get paid. I'm not complaining though, I'm glad we're retaining him.

An healthy Nate Robinson got 2M per year... Mills should be signed to the minimum imo in that situation...

Damn. Bad news for Patty. Bad/Good news for the Spurs. Bad news because that only leaves them with CoJo as a backup point until late next season, good news because it will definitely keep teams away from him now..

I'm sorry but Cory Joseph got his chance to prove he was a backup PG for 3 years... And all he's proven is he can play well in trash minutes against OKC. Didin't do anything the games Parker sat out and he started.

SIGN TROY DANIELS

[stephen jackson]

damn thats bad. highly doubt anyone pays him now
2 by 7 is likely for us....
but still out till January

Patty is better than Nate. Also, spurs pay for goodwill and players reward then with loyalty.

[exstatic]

Spurs take care of their own.
