Patty Mills a Faker?
According to the Chinese, Mills is a faking the hamstring injury. Somehow I doubt it unless Mills is dying to get back to the Austrailian league. It's not like he's got a spot in the NBA waiting.

I could see Portland cutting Johnson and signing Patty
before the season is over. (i don’t think he’d be cleared until March, much like Denver’s Kenyon Martin) Patty plays uptempo and could be helpful to give Felton a little more rest come prior to the playoffs. Right now we’re rotating Felton and Crawford at the point even though Crawford is more of a 2 guard. Experimenting with Smith and Johnson in this shortened season could be risky, and at least Patty is a known commodity. He’s quick, shoots the 3 well, and is a great locker room guy.
Something seems a little off
Maybe NBA players will think a bit longer before signing contracts with China in the future.
I was expecting this to be about him joining LAL

Originally my title was "Mills faking injury?"
but I couldn’t help myself to put some extra pizazz in an otherwise meaningless tidbit
He was tweeting about this last week:
Just had another MRI on my hammy….

So how does my first MRI say I have a torn hamstring of 11cm then 5 days later (still can’t run) MRI says there nothing wrong with me….?

"@Dave_McAlister: @Patty_Mills Get some second opinion MRI’s by someone you choose!" Yeah..in the works

What would a real doctor do if they didn’t have a light box to view an MRI..?

If we keep running 8- or 9-man rotations anyway,
Patty should be welcomed back. He can wave a towel better than the rest of our bench.

But Patty just wanted the ball back!
Um, okay, maybe you have a point.

Nevermind, Matthews with the aggressive steal attempt/foul.
I see Patty now. Sad towel!

don't want
based on his familiarity with the system, Patty will expect to receive PT, he doesn’t defend well enough to warrant any
and if he has a twinge in his hammy that’s even more reason to stay away. His game is all about straight-ahead speed
When reached 40+ years of following Portland basketball you have, be as passionate of the Trail Blazers you will not!
Mills is a faking
sounds like Mario
