George Hill coming to Utah

Yeah, he did rise to the occasion that year with a 21 PER, compared to his usual 14ish.
The Jazz can give him a usage role somewhere inbetween, and hopefully it works.

PER rewards volume. With Paul George, Hill's USG% obviously went down down down, but that year without PG he proved he could take on a larger volume of work and still be incredibly efficient.
 
George Hill's agent:

"I'd hope a team doesn't give up a lottery pick to take a guy for one year. George likes stability; he's not the kind that wants to move around."

anyone with a half a bball brain knows teagueis way betterthen Hill. Now maybe the Jazz prefer Hill contract compared to Teague but Teague is by far the superior player and it isn't even close.

Teague is "way" better than Hill? Please *face palm.* shaking my dreads. Had you said better, I think you can argue that but way better is not an intelligent comment. Your better than that.

This whole trade will be evaluated in almost exactly 12 months. Here the questions:
1. Did we have a good season and solid playoff performance?
2. Did we show that we were good enough to convince Hayward to stay?
3. Do we want to keep Hill?
4. Does Hill want to stay at an affordable contract?
5. Who ends up being #12 and how good does he end up being?

If the first 4 questions are positive, then this trade works out great. If the 5th question yields an answer that might make us cringe (such as #12 looks like a really good player), then a positive answer on the first four questions should ease our minds some. If we get negative answers on any of the first four, we got to hope like hell that #12 is a terrible player. If not, Lindsey will be roasted for this deal.

Rarely is a trade made where the evaluation can be made so quickly.

Who says we would chose the guy who went #12? This is simplistic reasoning at best. This trade can be evaluated now, the team got the guy they wanted for a pick not likely to be better than him. I call this a smart trade. Whether it works out or not is yet to be determined but the basis and idea for the trade looks solid to me.

Do you know who might know if Teague is WAAAAYYYYYY better than George Hill? Quinn Snyder who freaking coached Teague in Atlanta. Does anyone on this board think they have a better handle on the Teague vs. Hill situation than Quinn Snyder? Do you think that Quinn Snyder was left out of the loop when this decision was made? I would suspect that Snyder made this call because Jazz probably could have had Teague if they wanted him, probably even last season at the deadline. It appears that they wanted Hill.
