    I didn't want to be too harsh on the guy ... but actually it's not even "ole" defense (he's staying in front for the most part), he just doesn't have the length to contend with Aubrey Coleman who is lighting him up like a christmas tree

    I like Mills, but he doesn't belong in an NBA rotation

    The criticism of Mills offence is bullshit. He's passed more than he's shot.

    The criticism of his defence is completely warranted.

    I wouldn't read to much into the Summer League.

    If it was an accurate indicator of talent, then Tim Duncan would be a scrub.

    And Qyntel Woods is the G.O.A.T.

    Patty Mills: 9 assists in the 1st game.

    Jerry Bayless: 6 assists in first 4 summer league games combined.

    I'm guessing they told him to go out and be aggressive in this game.

    When guys light it up you take it with a grain of salt, when they struggle (consistently) you start to worry a little bit

    This is really sloppy. Tough to watch.

    That was a pretty shitty decision on the fast break by Patty.

    There's not much to take away from SL, especially games like this.

    No organization. Looks like shit. This looks like a bunch of guys getting together and playing a pickup game, which is basically what SL is.

    50+ wins begs to differ.

    incredibly bad lol? i remember him being too passive, but very athletic and showing a lot of potential.

    unlike babbitt who looks like he will never be able to guard anyone in the NBA.

    Gotta get Babbitt some touches here, instead of Dante jacking up shots. Gotta see what Luke can do here.
