lol, how often do ST posters hear from him anyway?
Philadelphi had to be in play for Mills.

I mean, why did RC make Iguodala his first meeting if they weren't that interested. That, to me, says they didn't really have much of a plan if they were wasting their time meeting someone that wasn't going to sign.
This is very strange. Was Chris Paul their whole plan? Was George Hill their main backup plan? Was Patty Mills a panic move after those first two fell through?
Why was time wasted meeting Iguodala the first night of meetings? Shouldn't they have been meeting someone they had a realistic chance of signing? Sounds like they had no more backup plans to go with at midnight.
Gotta love ST.
Before 7/1: These free agents suck and want too much money.
After 7/1: WTF are PATFO doing? Sitting back while all the free agents sign elsewhere!
Did spurs think they could trade LMA
Yea, makes sense. Bogut/Gay would be very formidable signings. A guy who can screen would help tremendously, though I imagine once he comes here the refs will call him for moving screens all the time.
Johnson/Singleton would be nice options, better defensively than Gay. I guess I like that Gay can come in and light it up if/when Kawhi goes to the bench or is off.
GAY and DRose are still available...
I just wrote that I thought Mills might be a panic signing. Did Zach Lowe say that, or are you saying that based on what Lowe said about other teams interested in Mills?Damn, that 12:01 panic move could be remembered here for a long time
Zach Lowe said that Mills was a desirable piece for a number of teams..Spurs panicked and jumped the gun once Hill declined to take less, afraid that somebody would entice Patty, I suppose..I love Mills, but he's not going to make or break your season, damn
George Hill and his agent played one of the worst FA games I've seen in a minute, though..
I thought it was Iggy who decided to meet them first? (could've sworn I remember seeing that somewhere) It seemed it was more Iggy who wasn't truly interested and used Houston/SA as leverage
Wonder who picks up Tony Allen
it. Go after Gay/Rose try to sign Bogut for a backup role for the min, bring Hanga over, tell LMA to stfu and deal with it. Call it a summer
Yeah, I read that, but what I am saying is why did RC make it a priority to meet him first. We didn't really want him and he didn't really want to sign elsewhere, so why did RC make that his first visit. He should have been visiting someone who was more obtainable. He could have told Iguodala I'll talk to you later.
Damn, even Vlade and indian dolan outsmarting PATFO these days
I would ing LOVE his defense on the team, but the FO will pass because of his offense. I'd rather a defensive player like Tony Allen over an offense only player like Mills any day of the week.
Rose. I want White to get minutes. I also don't want Gay.
Taking out Gay's injury, what's the drawback with him? Why are people opposed to him? I've always been interested in him for the right price. He's always been too expensive, though.
Gotcha.. Maybe they really valued him if they were planning on moving DG to clear space for GH or someone else? Really no clue. It's possible they talked to others even tho it's not supposed to go down till midnight
Same... Him, Kawhi and DG on the wing vs the Warriors would be great.
I would rather take a gamble on gay than rose. I agree spurs need to give their young guards minutes but I would be very surprised if white wasn't in Austin for the majority of the season. And if gay could even be decent for he wpjmd give us a decent option at PF in smaller lineups and to backup Kawhi
Damn people want Allen in a lineup with Danny Green? They're not shutting down anyone on the Warriors and a 3 on 5 offensive lineup won't outscore them anytime soon.
Haywards trainers following Celtics players now...
His offense is pretty inefficient and awkward and he needs the ball.
I guess I haven't watched him that much, but I thought he'd be great, especially when paired with the bench as a main option. What type of shots does he like to take? Midrange? Does he take it to the rack and try and finish much?
spurs were open to trading la and green to clear space for cp3 but didn't like the return value?
also, they would've had $40 million committed to cp3 + tony... on a roster with no la, gasol, lee, dedmon.
hill wasn't in the spurs plans, not surprised they resigned patty.
Talks broke down ( i thought) b/w Spurs/Hill... Has to mean there was some interest, no? Couldve been plan B or C
Yep. They had talks so he had to have been a plan, and I do think he was either plan B or C. I think the Mills signing was a panic signing.
