George Hill coming to Utah

In Utah, Mack averaged 31mpg, 5.3apg, 44%fg, 12.7ppg

Last season, Hill averaged 34mpg, 3apg, 44%fg, 12.1ppg

So how is Hill this massive upgrade over our current 2nd string? The only thing Hill does better than Mack is shoot the 3 (41% vs 36%). #12 could have been a very good player. I guess we really are afraid of grooming another good player like Lyles. Why?
 
This trade is stupid as hell.

Why does Indy get Teague and we get Hill? So stupid. Why didn't we get Teague?

I'm surprised at the responses thus far. A dirt cheap top 10 (or so) PG for a meh late-lottery pick? That's a good trade for the Jazz. Pretty much the most exciting news we've heard in a long long time!

Yeah, this is a great move. I think the people complaining about it aren't aware of how good Hill is.

It could end up being a **** move in the long term. He's an expiring contract. Even if we retain him, he's already on the wrong side of 30. Meanwhile, lottery picks are dirt cheap (especially as the cap continues to rise) and you're guaranteed to keep the guy you draft for 8+ years.

I'm okay with it, though. Obviously this means the Jazz didn't like their options at #12 this year. And I've always felt Hill would be an ideal trade target.

It's a good move for next season; only time will tell if it was the right long-term move.

I'm having difficulty understanding why we didn't just get Teague and leave Indiana out of this. Teague is two years younger and the better player.
 
LOL at jazzfanz complaining about losing the 12th pick. Stop living your life in the lottery, clearly the jazz want to

Not to mention it addresses 2 big areas of need. PG and 3 point shooting. Exum now has a cushion, shooting is better and Jazz are stronger going into this season. Winning will matter when you talk to Favors, Gobert, Hayward...about contracts. Also the Jazz still have plenty of room to go after a free agent or future trades as there are now 5 PGs. Exum, Hill, Burke, Neto and Mack.

Does it have risk? Sure but I love that he makes a move, for a player mentioned on here in the past, and its panned so hard.

I think most of the cautious people just want a low pick, too. And, most cautious people realize that there must be a few other pieces moving around for this to make sense for the other teams as well. "Panned so hard" is a big over-reach.
 
I guess DL has no idea Wade Baldwin's floor is George Hill.
