Patty Mills

Yeah, gritty.

That and it's, and it's, um, I've played in with enough, I've been around enough, whether it's Patty Mills, Joe Ingles, Andrew Bogut I was teammates with, obviously Delly.

When you see those style, like every culture, every region has a style of play.

Yeah.

But he's not ... quite a playmaker, but he's also can use improvement on the defensive end.

And so when you look at that from that space is also learning how to maybe play a little bit more of point guard and run the show versus like, hey, you're a scoring guy off the bench.

Kinda like Patty Mills.

Yeah.

You see that hype video that he had about coming here? In the video, it was not, you know...

Spurs legends such as Patty Mills and Davis Bertans that he was striving to be like.

He knows he's not Tim Duncan, but he knows that his legacy will be stamped if he is the missing piece that helps the Spurs get over the hump this year.

And I think that in recruiting him, I'm not saying that they did promise him a role, but I'm saying if the Spurs were to sweeten the pot, that would make sense.

And I think that's the risk you sometimes take when you don't find a player very early on.

And maybe that was because they thought they were a genuine chance at Paddy Mills.

I'm not 100% sure.

But it's going to be interesting.

We've had actually some wildfires in Serbia in the recent weeks, so we were really happy when we finally got some rain to sort it out.

okay guys enough chit chat it's time to go down to business so you've had several days to marinate in the los angeles clippers fallout part one i guess i'm not sure this this story is is finished yet uh what are your thoughts on crime and punishment and i'm not asking about fjodor dostoevsky's masterpiece i was chatting with patrick the other day and he reminded me of um of his strong push for DeMar DeRozan to be the point guard of the Nuggets next season.

So this will be our next topic.

But before that, Brian, how did you... feel about the amount of first round picks deducted from the Clippers.

i don't know i mean it seems like this is his baby to a degree that you know he's willing to put his his money into it and behind it i have a feeling that uh the way he's responding this will just make him dig his heels in harder i think what will be more interesting that you've alluded to a couple times is they've not said that this investigation is over right so um you know they they come up with something that's even more of a smoking gun than maybe maybe they actually take that stuff

Patrick, do you expect to see a new investigation by Pablo Torres? Soon he was mentioning the Jalen Brunson deal, the good price for the team and franchise.

Did he just open Pandora's box or do you think this kind of really hard punishment is there to say, okay, guys, just stop screwing around and Maybe.

Okay, I have another theory, but I'll go back with that.

Texter from the 305 says Holly was correct, Joe.

Patty Mills is the player that killed the Heat with Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker.

He's true.

It's right.

Mills was the Heat killer.

Those guys aren't even close to Kawhi Leonard and what he did to the Heat.

Patty Mills was the better player in that series.

You could argue he had the better career.

We feel the need for an Australian on the team.

We haven't had an Australian on the team since Patty Mills, and we do like our Australians around here.

But he also doesn't play a lot of minutes for the Australian national team.

Dante Axum played over him.
