    i think FO and Pop did it again. Yeah its only a few games but I like what I see in Hill.

    I always liked Vaughn but he's jst too much of a liability.

    Because JV is an aging third string point guard with no physical gifts doing his best to fill in minutes as a backup?

    because vaughn has never had any offense. he's full of suck and a liability on that end of the court. hill is a natural "scorer". once he works with chip on that jumper, he'll be TP lite

    And Hill is a no-name, small-program, late 1st round-surprised everyone draft pick!

    I don't get the Vaughn hatred (and I'm a K-Stater!!!).

    He was originally signed to be an insurance policy as a 3rd PG...and he's been EVERYTHING that we could have hoped for from that perspective.

    Is he an outstanding second-stringer? No, but good luck finding a solid vet that you can sign as a 3rd guy insurance policy for a bargain rate.

    Why would you ask a stupid question and then argue with the answer? George Hill was one of the best high school players in Indiana history, he was highly recruited, went to IUPUI for personal reasons, not because he couldn't play anywhere else, and was only a surprise to the media because he was so late to declare that he wasn't in any of the mock drafts. There were two other teams looking at Hill when the Spurs took him, both of which made the finals last year.

    +1. He's a smart, mature guy who's a good locker room influence, he doesn't make big mistakes, and he has a low salary. Guys with more talent don't accept being 3rd string, and don't play for under 2 mil/year. People should give him a break. He fills his role perfectly.

    Hill averaged 37 ppg in high school and he played against courtney lee, greg oden, josh Mc roberts, Connelly and countless other Division 1 prospects in one of the most talented high school basketball recruiting classes in a while anywhere in the nation... 7 NBA players came out of Indiana during that recruiting class.. nobody could stop him he was triple teamed by D1 caliber players and he would put up 49 points.... hes going to turn out to be one of the top 10 rookies in this draft class easily

    vaughn is valuable not because of his basketball skills and talent, he is valuable because of his IQ. its not his fault hes as skilled. ive said this before, as much as i hate seeing vaughn play, i want him to stick around to mentor hill.

    coaches voted that hes a future coach for a reason.

    Hill is doing a great job. But wait for the playoffs before deciding that JV's experience is unnecessary. No slight to Hill, but if he doesn't feel playoff jitters the first couple of trips, then he needs a big red "S" on his chest. I remember Parker benefitting from having an old guy around to settle things down. We would have one or two fewer banners without that experience during crunch time.

    it's not that Vaughn is a liability... he didn't have much to offer to begin with.
