Postgame Interview: Patty Mills

Postgame Interview: Patty Mills

P we always want all these good moments to come during wins but how nice was it to be able to get on the floor for the first time and to be so impactful at that first step yeah anytime you get to have a chance to get on the floor is is

Always good um disappointing loss you know we gave ourselves um chances there um wasn’t able to come up with the the 50/50 balls which is what we spoke about um before the game but yeah just great to to stretch it out get on the floor

And um you know be with this team how has it been over the last few days I know as a veteran you’re able to pick up stuff and you’ve studied this team enough over the years but how has it been for you in this little short period

Of time yeah it’s it’s funny you ask that it’s been great um in such a short amount of time um it it’s felt comfortable um and it’s actually felt a lot longer than than what it has um I feel like I’m in a in a place um you know

Where it’s really valued for what I have to bring um and I think it allows me to to give much more of myself to a team this locker room um the organization and and to a culture um so it’s been a very um you know comforting last 48 hours and

Seeing this team two games playing in one can you see an divisional role for yourself like I can do X Y and Z yeah I think it’s um more of the mentality of um whatever it takes um and just seeing your your opportunities your chances but

Um you know it’s it’s the clear thing here is is one goal and and every one being able to buy into that and do their part to be able to be you know the last team standing at the end of the day so um you know whatever it takes you you go

Out there and try to do it SP said you especially work well with the team’s best players you’ve played with a lot of best players over your career what was it like being on the court with Jimmy yeah it felt great um for the first time

With not really um being on court with him ever before and then rolling out there um just just a great um you know IQ understands the game really well um so there’s definitely potential there but um you know I think I’ve been in in moments and played with a lot of players

That have prepared me for this moment so um you know just looking to to slide in there appreciate it thank you so much welcome
