He is one of the few guys currently on the Spurs with tats that are not covered.

I was thinking the same thing. Visable tattoos are the exception on the Spurs.

The kid sure has some arms though. Damn.

Looks like that's the new trend among the young Spurs:

Nic pics!
I passed a giant billboard last night congratulating Hill on being drafted...really though, I think it was an ad for IUPUI.

And there's also a UFO in that pic. They must have did something to his arm.

The bad news is that's what he looks like when he tries to finish at the basket against NBA talent. Bro needs a midrange pullup jumper or a teardrop desperately.

I forgot to mention that I saw Hill use the teardrop (and make it) once during the latter half of the RMR. That's not to say that he can make it with any consistency, but it's at least a shot that he considers when he gets into the lane. I hope he works with Parker to learn how to master that shot; it's one that is pretty effective in both quickness-in-release and in arc for smaller players.

:lol

Shocking, the thread derails into a "how much George Hill sucks" thread.

:wakeup Is he already signed? The reason I asked because he's already wearing a Spurs jersey. Also where is James Gist's photo? :wakeup

He is a first round pick. They are always going to be signed. The Gist however was a second rounder and has not yet decided on signing the Spurs

No, I'm not gay or bi.

Theres one person mentioning George Hill's struggles to finish at the rim in the Summer League and all of a sudden T-Park jumps to the defense of George Hill and the Spurs FO.

He looks good, really long arms and big hands which should help him improve his finishing at the rim.

:lol I think it's to show off the tattoo on his leg better than the other shots do.

That is not necessarily true. There are a lot of things that can happen that can allow for a first rounder not to be signed, or that can allow for them to be signed on a certain salary scale.

He will be signed though. I really think he has the tools to be a steal in the draft. Will not happen overnight. If he gets back his scoring touch, wow, what a grab by the F.O.
