Aron Baynes played 40 odd seconds for 1 turnover. still more playing time then Patty, another DNP Coachs decision. Not looking good for Patty's NBA Career atm

Mills has to do something now. his manager is not doing job properly.
Either go to Europe of go somewhere else in NBA that will going to give him more playing time that what he's now getting at San Antonio
Hes lucky he has a contract right now. Remember he was out of the League this time last year.....
Head down bum up and keep working.

Yeh look, he did get some opportunities and didnt take them, same goes for Jingles, he had the opportunities and never really took them

If you think his manager is going to have any kind of influence on what Pop does with his rotations you are sorely and naively mistaken...

thats is why his manager has to shop him outside the Spurs team because he couldnt influence pops.

on topic, Baynes got his first 40 NBA shake up seconds. was done purposely if we think its only 40 seconds

Did anyone watch the game, 'cos I didn't think it was possible for a player (Baynes)to have a +/- of -8 in 40 seconds.
Misprint or did it look as bad as it sounds (obviously it is possible but it would have to be a hell bad 40 seconds for the team)?

Patty isnt injured at all. he is suited up and jumping up and down on the bench
this is case in point for why you shouldnt just read a boxscore !
catch the ball Neal!!!

@ tropical booz No link but here's how it went down:
0:44 Aron Baynes enters the game for Kawhi Leonard
0:21 Darren Collison makes 24-foot three point jumper (Rodrigue Beaubois assists)
0:04 Jae Crowder makes 25-foot three point jumper (Darren Collison assists)
0:04 Aron Baynes bad pass (Darren Collison steals)
0:02 Darren Collison makes 7-foot jumper
0:02 Danny Green enters the game for Aron Baynes
It couldn't have felt too good to have been subbed out with only 2 seconds left in the game and the other team needing at least 2 possessions to tie/win!

Yeh i dont know why they subbed him out. That too me doesnt seem smart, all your going to do is kill a guys confidence.

You can go on NBA website & watch it. Wasnt that bad a pass but doesnt look good 4 baynes. Sometimes its hard to win! Its almost like he was set up...
Mills should NOT go to Europe to play. He should fina abd NBA team where he can get playing time and can chuck shots. They would not like him in Euroleague.
The only Euroleague team that lets point guards chuck is Siena, and that team is about to implode and not exist anymore.
Most Euroleague coaches would have a big problem with how Mills plays. It would be a mistake for him to try Euroleague.

Mills needs to find a team in which bouncing the ball so hard with each dribble that it nearly decapitates him, is considered a good thing.

At the end of the day, the list of undersized 2 guards that have had success in the NBA is only a couple of guys long.
Patty really needs to learn some PG skills...

Completely agree with anon re Mills not looking to play Euroleague, his game is not suited to that style at all. Ljubljana might have him if he came cheap, and he could play in the Adriatic league which is quite up-and-down.
