With that said, what are the 3 most important skills for Hill to work on?

3 ball (Not just the corner)
Point Guard Abilities (Ball handling, court vision, passing)
Pick and roll offense.
and defense of course. he was pretty overrated defensively on here all year long.

Continued 3 point shooting
Defensive technical ability (learn to move laterally better & lateral quickness, better use of length. . .)
Fast break decision making

Wow is this guy for real? Who's the guy that was pretty much the reason we got past the Mavs?
The loss against Phoenix was a team effort.
With that being said, I voted Defense, 3 Point shooting and Court Vision.

One good game and one other decent game does not a playoffs make. WHen we needed him most, Hill was the afterbirth that fell on the floor of the delivery room.

That sounds like Tony Parker's first few seasons in the league.

I`ve chosen 3 point shooting, passing, court vision . 3 pts shooting is what Spurs need most, passing and court vision I think are worst of Hill`s atributtes

Quickness, getting to the rim, and pointguard abilities.

I surprised more people haven't said footwork. Hill slips more than anyone I've ever seen in the league.

mental toughness, heart, championship drive,grit,determination
and DON'T lose the attitude that he ALREADY HAS!
I'm surprised more people haven't voted for his layups. George Hill has the slashing ability and quickness to get into the rim, but the boy can't finish for shit. Unless he has the open lane to throw down a dunk or can manage a basic bank to the side of the rim, he looks awkward putting up the shot.

Only 16% think an undersized combo guard needs strength training? lol

3 point shooting - I think he can hit the corners fine, but that's about it. If he could become deadly from the other three spots out there, we're a better team. This is also a general team need as a whole, we need guys that can do this.
Finishing at the rim - One of the first things TP learned to do was develope that tear drop. It made scoring easy for him.
Running offense - We can't have him playing the PG position and not run the offense. Manu can't be doing it all year long, he can't be our real backup PG. Too much wear and tear. Hill needs to be able to run the offense. And if Parker is traded or allowed to walk in the next year, it becomes that much more important.

Court vision, moving without the ball and footwork.

After finishing 2nd for most improved player in the league, he should work on ignoring fickle spurstalk posters who don't know much about basketball.

I say PG abilities mostly.
3 pt shooting is a plus. He definitely needs to learn how to navigate through traffic while keeping his dribble alive. If he can do that, he will be vastly improved once again.

Not really the most important, don't really need much strength as a guard.

He has potential to be pretty epic on defense. Bowen needs to mentor him sensai style.

i voted defense, 3's, strength.
He needs to do something to improve that lateral quickness his length should be an asset not a last resort in defense

Not only does he have to work on moving his feet on defense, but learn how to fight through a damn pick. With his long arms, if he can fight through screens better, he can really bother guys pulling up for shots off the screen as opposed to going under the screen and leaving the guy enough space to get off a decent shot.
And, like Parker, if he can improve his shooting, it will force teams to run out on him when he's open, thereby allowing him to get to the rim easier.
