"Worth more than a hill of beans: Possibly the biggest surprise of the first round of the recent NBA draft was IUPUI guard George Hill being selected by the Spurs with the 26th pick. But if that didn't happen, could Hill have ended up a Celtic? Hill was projected by many as a second-round pick and wasn't even listed among the 123 prospects in the NBA's predraft media guide. But after Hill's introductory news conference in San Antonio, his agent, Michael Whitaker, said the Celtics had promised to select Hill with the 30th pick if he was available."

i guess you don't remember alfre hughes
I am over you haters, I have every faith in the Spurs FO, they have done it before and will do it again. Rather than bagging out the guy, why not believe in him and give the guy a chance? Maybe you are right about Hill being picked up at 46, I myself was thinking Chalmers on draft night, but I am not the guy making the decisions and last time I looked the team's track record speaks for itself.
I don't know if Hill will be a steal or a bust but you can still say some things :
First, Spurs' FO has faith in its scouting. They picked an unknown IUPUI player over consensus picks like Darrell Arthur, Donté Greene, Mario Chalmers or CDR.
Second, the idea that Spurs could have traded down and drafted Hill with a lower pick is plain wrong. Some teams were ready to pick Hill very few spots after Spurs.
Check this out... George Hill shutting down #3 draft pick O.J.Mayo
Here's a closer look:

I doubt he'll be a steal. He'll probably be alright. But nice troll bait, I guess.
I guess the rookie missed the other 10 George Hill threads in the forum...
Wow the greatest FO draft blunder of all time with out a game played??
Why not let the kid get a few games under his belt that count before we go and throw him under the bus?
I've said it before here and I'll say it again. Pop, Buford and the Spurs decision makers have more experience in evaluating talent and fitting pieces than any of us do. Let the young man stumble and embarrass himself now. He has the character to grow and improve. I have all the confidence in the world that Hill will become the kind of player the Spurs staff has envisioned. Calm down, people.
how about we wait till he at least plays a year
This has turned out to be an awkward thread. OP attempts to mimic Sequ but most don't pick up on it.
jayc23, you are raising your blood pressure unnecessarily. relax man. Hill will be alright...!!!The spurs FO is always looking for a diamond in the rough.. always out smarting themselves... always praying for a TP ala manu repeat... well POP REALLY SCREWED THIS ONE... how dare he pass on CDR and chalmers... NO FO WITH

Nice try on the abstract, pseudo-existentialist post, but it just didn't quite work. :p
Never underestimate the lack of reading comprehension. jayc23, the biggest Hill fan on the board, being pilloried for trashing Hill along the lines of sequspur who doesn't really intend to be taken seriously and Mr Body who thinks he should be.
I think this thread was supposed to be supporting Hill......?
The lack of profanity causes this thread to fail.
I guess Hill was really their first guy.
Do we really need another "Hill is the greatest/worst pick ever" thread?
sagu spur
hahahahhahaha
