Well, lucky for the spurs they picked up Roger Mason, if Hill isn't NBA ready yet, they are gonna need a ballhandler, since Barry is gone
You've got to be kidding.

If Mason is all-fired good, they should have drafted a position of need.
Chill on it give him antoher chance haha i would like to see you play your summer league game haha
hill, still out rebounded fab and bonner put together....im telling ya, he's playing the wrong position...he should be next to ian, those guys are monsters on the boards....
i thought dropping beno in the middle of the season, and bringing in mighty mouse was a waste of time...no matter fact im sure of it......why isnt mighty mouse playing in the SL helping hill learn the system is my question?
Perhaps in the dank recesses of your mind.
YOU HAVE TO BE THE BIGGEST PUSSY ON THE NET
AND ARENT YOU THE SAME GUY WHO WAS TALKING ABOUT THE US OLYMPIC SQUAD AFTER ARGENTINA WON THE GOLD.... YEAH THAT WAS YOU, WELL ITS 08' AND WERE GONNA KICK ARGENTINAS ASS!!!!!
George Hill was a SG in college. He need to learn the PG position and you can't do that in 2 games !!!
He needs to calm down and learn to play with NEW teammates.
It takes time !
He was a scorer in college, for me it's not the problem.
The problem is his new position.
He will be fine.
Why did they draft a small SG for a back-up point guard position? That's a transformation very, very few players make. If you want to try it, don't waste a first round pick on it. That's what the second round is for.
that is yet to be seen my friend...![]()
Who names their kid George after 1980? Isn't it like a banned name, with exclusive rights belonging to baby boomers? I thought we were talking about a coach when I clicked on the thread.
SL is going on here. You expect a guy to come in, straight out of college, trying to learn a relatively new position to him, and burn up the court against guys that already have a year or so of NBA experience?
What dream world do you live in?
why are we going insane over out back up PG having a ty game. at least he has talent...the kid isn't Jacque Vaughn for pete's sake.
pop likes the kid and will develop him. he'll realize his full potential under pop. take a deep breath....and exhale. the spurs b-ball universe will unfold as it should.
Objectively speaking, Hill looked lost playing point on a team that was disorganized most of the time. He'd bring the ball down slowly and then just stop and wait for anyone to set a decent pick which rarely came. He was never open for a jumper. Everytime he got to the rim he got fouled or there was a no-call. Instant analysis tells me that Vaughn will be getting the majority of the backup minutes until Hill learns the system. Mahimni also never got the ball in a position to show any moves. Real schoolyard basketball.
this thread should be an embarrassment to all spur fans. crying like a for a summer league performance from the 26th pick in the draft.![]()
Uh, they did.
It's been used since at least the 3rd Century AD. Although the popularity of certain names rises and ebbs over time, the Social Security Administration statistics show that in the US, George continues to be a standard name (Top 150 or so).
As people born since 1980 might say, you just inflicted yourself with self-pwnage.

They signed Roger Mason, ergo back-up point was not a position of need.
spurs needed a scorer. Mason is suppossed to be a scorer
I was dissapointed to see how bad Hill did, but Im not ready to throw the guy under the bus either.
Folks, let's not get ahead of ourselves. Let's give the kid a break here.
If the coaching staff sees enough in this kid to exude patience and give him some leeway, then we fans should do the same. It's only his second summer league game. The kid is not going to become Tony Parker over a matter of a few months.
ROFL. When did they sign him and when did the draft occur? Further, Mason is not going to be a backup point in SA.
beats Gilbert.
