damn!
Heat saw it was working and sat Birdman last 2 games to match up with Patty. At least Eric tried to match Pop.
Some very interesting quotes from Brett Brown in Australian media today about his end of season senario
"You would think (he would get more game time elsewhere). Ultimately it is up to him to find a solid back-up point guard role and find 12-14 minutes a game, and securing that rotation and going from there. I hope somewhere in his career he can find that," Brown said."I think if he stays here he is in a dog fight with Corey Joseph who comes in for Tony Parker. Cory Joseph is 20 years old and was a first-round draft pick, so he is not going to get worse. He is only going to get better.
"We believe there is a future there for him, and if that's not true then you move on, and he's created that type of value for himself. Why wouldn't (other teams come knocking on his door)? The risk-reward with Patty is small because you cover both sides - he can deliver on the court and he can deliver in the locker room and that is not to be disputed."
After leading the scoring at the London Olympics, Mills slotted into the San Antonio line-up smoothly, becoming a rotational player off the bench through December and January, averaging 6.4 points a game in the latter month. But for reasons coach Brown could not pinpoint, Mills fell out of the rotation and was used sparingly for the remainder of the season, coming on late in the season to drain 23 and nine points respectively in the final two games of the regular season.
"There is not a specific instance. He has played more off guard this year than point guard, so at times it becomes a match-up situation," he said.
is it just me or is that a gentle nudge?
Would Bud take him to Atlanta?

I wouldn't be surprise to see a draft day deal with Atlanta where the Spurs send someone like Bonner, Mills and a pick for one of Atlanta's 1st rounders. Atlanta's has no bench pretty much with everyone coming off the books and Bud/Danny wouldn't mind having a few reliable players that know the Spurs system right off the bat. I wouldn't be surprise if Neal or Blair sign there as well this offseason.
