Woj:Patty Mills has agreed to a 4-year, $50M deal to stay with San Antonio

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Only thing I can think is maybe Hill and his agent were looking for a four year deal and wouldn't budge on it. The rest of what he ended up with as far as dollars and years seems like it should easily have been doable for both parties.

Oh, it's a great deal if he doesn't get that $2 Million

well at least it's something.

are all the details of Pau's contract known? could there be 8 mil of unlikely incentives in that deal?

[tbdog]

Whats the adv of giving out unlikely incentives?

They don't count against the cap if they aren't earned (unless they are in the first year of a deal).

Clowns wanting Patty to sign for the vet min. Remember how he helped Spurs win a ring with a jacked up shoulder. He signed for his predicted value.

Dude literally needs to get his shoulder ed up again to get his shot back.

[Drom John]

OTOH, if Mills earns the unlikely incentive(s), then it his play makes the increased salary worthwhile for the Spurs.
Speculating, but don't these incentives usually mean being named to the All-Star game, MVP, DMVP, all-NBA?

Better than winning the lottery. Lottery = pure luck, but Patty's actually being rewarded for being useless. That's straight-up gangsta.

How many people actually remember anything from Patty is those 2014 playoffs apart from the last few games of the finals.

He couldn't hit a shot to save his life in the OKC series. He wasn't shooting lights out in those playoffs at all. That's why I was very mad when the Spurs resigned him to the amount they've signed him. People are remembering wrong. He's never really had a great playoff run from start to finish, ever. 2014 he was good those last 3 finals game, and I'm thankful for that as those were masterpieces, but he wasn't that good at all for the majority of those playoffs. I'd say the 7 game series against the Clippers in 2015 was he best playoffs performance. The only problem with that is, Pop didn't play him enough to see if he could have sustained it. He played a ed up Parker instead.

But why does a player sign an unlikely incentive contract?

Good observations and agree.

But why does a player sign an unlikely incentive contract?

Maybe they agreed on 4yr/48? And PATFO threw those 2MM xtra as a motivation?

[Chinook]

But why does a player sign an unlikely incentive contract?

Sometimes a player is likely to earn those incentives of their role is supposed to change. Plus incentives let a guy bet on himself.

Patty Mills extra millions for every 20 butt-hurt ST'ers.

Watch MVPatty when the Mavs took us to the dyen moments of game 7. Big plays late that series.

The dying moments of game 7? What year was this? Because last time we played the Mavs in a 7th game was 2014 and the Spurs blew them out. Parker was the guy that set the tone and dominated game 7.

[dabom]

Parker set the tone for game 7?

[Ice009]

Parker set the tone for game 7?

Yes. He completely DOMINATED the game. Are you re ed?

btw, Patty Mills, I don't remember him doing much and I looked it up. 2-8 from the field. How come no-one remembers that Patty Mills in the 2014 playoffs? I'd kick Mills straight to the curb if we could get back that Tony Parker. TP had a few monster games in those playoffs and that game 7 was one of his best.

[dabom]

Kawhi broke out that game. I'd say he set the tone got.

[Ice009]

Kawhi broke out that game. I'd say he set the tone got.

I disagree. Kawhi was the 4th leading scorer for the game. He had a very good game, but Parker was the player of the game.

23-32

P. Mills enters the game for T. Parker

27-51

T. Parker enters the game for M. Ginobili

That second unit.
