Millsanity haha
I reckon the move to San Antonio under Parker is the best thing that could have happened to him. Hope he gets some time in the playoffs.

You bloody ripper Patty! Knew he had this in him, hes got a big career ahead. Wish I chased all his cards earlier though Lucky I have one auto at least.

 

[Fixxxer]

Interesting stat....

Mills became just the 13th NBA player to go for a 30-point/10-assist game this season.

 

[WhiteyTheCelticsFan]

Good to see his getting more of chance in San Antonio than he did in Portland.

Go Patty!

Story from the Herald Sun website.....

AUSTRALIAN basketballer Patty Mills is on fire in the American NBA, delivering 27 and 34 points in successive games for San Antonio Spurs.​

The latter effort, which enabled the Spurs to beat Golden State Warriors 107-101 yesterday, was the highest score ever posted by an Australian in the world's best hoops league and was expanded by 12 assists.
Andrew Bogut, who recently joined the Warriors but is injured, held the previous record of 32 while playing for Milwaukee Bucks against Dallas in January, 2010.

With Bogut unavailable for the London Olympics, Mills' hot form is great news for Boomers coach Brett Brown, an assistant at the Spurs.

The 23-year-old indigenous point guard is suddenly on the way to creating a happy ending to a difficult year, which involved playing the first nine games of the Australian season with Melbourne Tigers while the NBA was shut down because of an industrial dispute.

He left to accept a lucrative offer to play in China with the Xinjiang Flying Tigers, but after 12 games was sacked for allegedly faking a hamstring injury, which he hotly denied.

Having played two years with Portland Trail Blazers, he returned to the US and has since played 15 games with the Spurs, his game time strictly limited until this week.

But with the team's playoff spot determined, coach Gregg Popovich has rested several players.
Mills got 34 minutes against Phoenix on Wednesday, cashing in with 27 points, and his 42 minutes yesterday was the game of his career.

What was most encouraging, Brown said, was Mills' other stats. "What's going to be written is that he had 34 points, but what should be written is that he had 12 assists. He has done a fantastic job of fitting in on all levels from a playing performance to being a great teammate, a real positive addition to the program."

FYI....Andrew Gaze is missing from the Herald Sun's list - his top score in his 26 NBA games was 6 points.

 

[taffster74]

Longley had a 20 point game?

 

[Hellda]

Mostly big men in that list apart from Patty and Shane, interesting....

 

[jaredhead33]

Mills is an awesome player, I was lucky enough to see him play for the boomers dropped 30 points that game, now for a championship. Bring it on patty.
