After so many years, George Hill goes from #15 pick in the draft value to #12.
The spike in Hill's value is simply a reflection of where Utah is in their development. The Pacers were willing to trade the 10th-overall pick in 2010 until Granger pointed them to George. Anyways, though, he was a better Pacer than he was a Spur.

Just thinking out loud, makes you wonder what the Spurs could get for Danny. Not saying I want him traded, just wondering.
Poor Hill.
Nah man, he's pretty rich.Quote:

Good point....It seems that we are undervaluing him here....he might bring a better pick than we realize.Quote:

Salaries are identical on Hill and Teague at $8 million (both FA after this year). This may give Atlanta some cap space and a trade exception? Plus a pick?
Not bad heading into FA. Well done Bud.
Great deal for Indiana.
Isn't Teague like, really good?
Why Utah, Why?
They have 4 PG's right now..
Neto could be a fit for us, TBH.
No.Quote:

Hill did worth a 15th pick 5 years ago and I highly doubt he has a higher value right now.Quote:

Why would they do that when what they NEED is a big wing. Baldwin might not end up being better than Bazemore & they already have Schroder. There are a bunch of backup PGs they can pick up later on in the draft.Quote:

Hill was a consistent off-ball threat. So much so that the now 30-year-old shot 44.9 percent on catch-and-shoot three-pointers this season, which trailed only Stephen Curry, J.J. Redick, Kawhi Leonard, and Kyle Lowry (minimum 300 points scored off the pass).
Its amazing how how some want to hate on Hill so much. This trade really helps Utah. They have a young up and coming team.

Hill isn't a creative PG who's going to breakdown defenses or score on isolations (the reason why he gets so much hate) but he can play the Jason Terry role on offense while playing excellent defense. The Jazz have a slow tempo team so he fits in just fine & can play off the ball while Hayward/Hood run the offense.Quote:

Hill five years ago for the 15th pick is a lot more reasonable than Hill right now for the 12th pick. Both times one year from free agency, but this time not a RFA but a UFA.
Yes, he's been underrated but there's a cost to using up cap space and not having the cost controlled rookie deal under the $94 million cap.
Also, if he can net the 12th pick it makes me wonder what people would value Green at. Signed for three more years at below market price and two elite skills (dribbling is not one of them) at a shallow position.
His defense is damn good. What's the other elite skill?Quote:

whatever happened to trey burke?
Probably about the same thing. In fact, I'm almost certain the Spurs could get 12 for Green straight up.Quote:

No, it isn't.Quote:

Hill is a perfect fit, on a young team that already has a cadre (Hayward, Hood, Burks, Exum) of wings and guards who provide varying degrees of ball handling/play making.
Hood is a small forward, he just primarily plays shooting guard because it allows for them to play their best players the most minutes together, similar to Middleton.
Hayward isn't going anywhere. It'll be Burke and probably eventually Burks, who'll go.
Utah is probably a playoff team if they can acquire even just one single decent, legit PG IMO..even a mediocre, aging player like Jose Calderon would help, they just need a player that can get them into their offense and make open jump shots..
Depends, Alec or BillyQuote:

Bill Neff, George Hill's agent, was candid about his client's love for the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday afternoon. He was drafted by the Spurs. And even if he was traded to the Indiana Pacers from San Antonio, his intent a few years ago was to go back in free agency. He would've if the Spurs had more salary cap space.

Nah. Green's not any more streaky than Bowen. He's just a volume shooter, and most Spurs aren't when they're missing threes.Quote:

I don't believe Hill can efficiently and consistently run an offense..he has improved, sure, but he's still far from a natural PG..his ball-handling and passing skills are very underwhelming for an NBA PG IMO..Quote:

Presuming they traded for the pick to use it and not necessarily as part of another transaction, I think Baldwin would be great for them, he can back up Shroeder and also play next to him as he's big and long enough. They may also look at Richardson or D. Murray, of course, but then again they're Atlanta and they're shitty at drafting.Quote:

Any backcourt mate that has Ellis beside him is going to be stifled statistically since he's so ball-dominant (and inefficient). They have enough players that can be secondary playmakers/ball handlers (ala Exum, Burks and Hayward) that he won't be burdened with being the full-time PG.Quote:
Originally Posted by HarlemHeat37

He's a huge, huge upgrade over Mack (who I like as a 3rd PG), Burke (bust) and Neto (too unathletic), while allowing them to reassess their PG situation next summer.
