    TP as a rookie played 30mpg shot 41% from the floor 32% from 3pt range and had just over 4apg. Do you guys think Hill will have a better rookie year numbers wise?

    Hill wont get the minutes, but if he did - possibly, but probably not.

    Parker had a pretty special rookie year given he was a teenage PG.

    No shot in . Hill has nothing approaching Parker's talent.

    As others have said, the minutes won't be there. Plus Parker was just a freak of nature. He was 19 and able to stay with any point right off the bat.

    Hill isn't nearly as special but he's pretty damn good. The first 10 minutes of playing time for him tonight was phenomenal. Hill was like Isiah Thomas reincarnate.

    But as we've seen, he's going to play well some games and lay eggs other games. It's not going to be a smooth ride.

    Hill > Pargo ... already. Pargo is a chucker with the lowest true shooting percentage in the NBA. He also can't play defense and can't pass. He's a good scorer and has range but the Spurs caught a break with Pargo going to Russia.

    Parker was not all that talented comming in. Remember he was the 6th pg taken that year, and he couldnt shoot, was not an assit guy and was turnover prone. He was also a very poor defender and got overpowered by everyone.

    Hill is a pro defender already, a better assist guy, looks to be a better seals guy and has a better shooting form.

    He is no where near as quick as TP, but I think Hill if he works as hard as TP could be special.

    I'm not saying Hill is more talented, but two of the most noticeable advantages Parker has - finishing at the rim and shooting - are not necessarily due to talent alone. Those can be corrected with the right skill adjustments and coaching.

    Right and remember Parker could not shoot a lick till they got him a shooting coach! Even now he is a poor 3pt shooter.

    Spurs fans need to settle down with the Hill to Parker comparisons. Parker has a chance to make the Hall of Fame before it's all said and done. Hill still has to prove he's better than Jacque Vaughn.

    Instead of shooting for the stars, let's hope Hill can retain the backup job once Parker comes back. Parker's stats his rookie season weren't spectacular but the smart Spurs fan saw the potential in him. Hill, despite being three years older than Parker was as a rookie, is more raw than Parker was and his ceiling isn't as high. But that doesn't mean he can't be damn good.

    But let's stay realistic here.

    Wrong. Parker's 3FG is at 60%. He just doesn't take a lot of threes.

    ummm.. Hill did more tonight in 5 minutes than Vaughn has done in his whole career.

    It must've been all that mentoring..

    Look at his career %. He doesnt take alot because he is a poor shooter outside 20ft and he needs to be on the move to shot....he is not a spot up shooter.

    or Maybe Hill has something Parker didn't.

    A reliable veteran point guard who has won championships and final's MVP to mentor him.

    I'm just sayin....

    He will be a normal rookie.

    I believe Parker did the same thing.
