He might have the arsenal or lightning speed, but his athletism makes up for it. And he shot 40% from 3 tonight, not too shabby.
Fortunately for the Spurs their coach doesn't have a love affair with a useless Russian snowboarder who can't do anything besides chuck 3's who he starts over the "small Ariza".
I've never seen someone besides VladRad who's legs are so disproportionately short compared to the rest of his body.....he runs like that one chick from scooby-doo.
I cannot actually say who he reminds me of. He looks like he was made from parts of all sorts of NBA players.
You sure know countries dude.
Russia was not Serbia the last time I checked.
^i had to read that 3 times to figure out who he was talking about. The snowboarding made me think of Rad, then i saw Russian.
didnt he say his favorite player was monte and he tried to model his game after his. im not suggesting that they are similar but could be something to kep an eye on.

This just came to me but Hill kinda reminds me of a mix of Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili
His Parker qualities are pretty obvious but he also is like Manu in that he knows how to accentuate contact and get himself to the free throw line. He also is kinda like Manu in how he swoops in for steals and can sky for rebounds and pull them down amongst the trees. Plus, like Manu, Hill doesn't back down to anyone ... as seen when he mean mugged Camby and got pissed at Lowry tonight.
George Hill ... the Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili lovechild
I'm really impressed with his ability to go to the free throw line as much as he has. Never thought a late first round rookie would be able to command that much respect from the refs, especially having in mind some of the treatment Duncan, an all time great, has received for some time.
He reminds me a lot of Antonio Daniels when he was a rookie with us in 1999 ( or was it his 2nd season? ). If he's able to provide as much aggressiveness off the bench and most importantly - being able to produce in other aspects when his shot isn't falling, then he'd be a massive asset for the future. Hopefully he can play a bit more at the 2 position when Tony is back.
he had some awesome play against Yao
would have loved to catch that, anyone by any chance have the clip?
kevin johnson anyone? now all we need is him to jam it in someones face
A mixture of Monta Ellis and Rajon Rondo.
Michael Jordan

George Hill ... the Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili lovechild
So perhaps this is the equation:
George Hill = 1/4 Parker + 1/2 Manu
he said in an interview he mirrors himself with Monta Ellis...
There's some Rondo and Monta there. Hard to find a completely accurate comparison, there's a lot he brings to the table.

He sure got game
Though they play different positions, Hill reminds me a lot of Scottie Pippen. They both have the great wingspan that helps create havoc on the defensive end of the floor, and Hill, on nights when his shot isn't dropping, still has the ability to contribute hugely with rebounds, assists, steals, blocked shots, etc.-- again, like Scottie in his multi-dimensionality. Both have high BB IQ. Both have slender frames that make their strength and tenacity a little bit surprising. And both came from little-known college basketball programs.
