Shane Heal V Patty Mills

Dribbler i hear you. Simon Dwight and Sammy Mac were my 2 favourite players. Its a shame injuries hurt both players.

I don't wanna sound critical of Mills but Heal had more pride in the way he performed out on court and was so much more clutch (absolute $)

It would have been interesting to hear of Heal's legacy without Gaze overshadowing him. Heal more than held his own when we had amazing import point guards.

I haven't seen Mills in NBA besides for Portland so probably not giving him enough credit.

But I'd trust Heal more than Mills to get the win

"Mills wouldn't give the Adelaide crowd a "One Finger Salute" while leaving the floor after a game!"

@jay ray No, he would have given a "One Towel Salute"

Slightly off topic, but are there any Australian players that you guys think have/had the talent to play in the NBA?

Or did play in the NBA but if they'd arrived earlier in their career/ got more of a chance would have done more than take the 12th spot on the roster?

Heal and Gaze our best backcourt.

Tough call. But Heal has the edge for me!

He got some short stints in the NBA and deserved better.

At NBL level he was $$$$.

Mills is a chance to catch him. But while NBA is great from him we may miss him matching Hammers NBL exploits...which is a shame.
