you keep prattling on about it, too. Teague's former coach chose Hill instead. Maybe you should let that sink in... instead of typing on jazzfanz.

That's a very good point ... the Jazz could have done a Teague for #12 pick straight swap with ATL, but instead involved IND to get Hill.


Lindsey/Quin must have liked Hill more for the Jazz.
 
Can't wait for Jazz basketball. Hill will take a lot of pressure off hood and Hayward, and be a key contributor to our top flight defense

It's no secret that I would have rather liked Teague. Teague would have been an A++ trade. Hill is an A+ trade. It is still a great trade.

Hill is a much better fit for the Jazz than Teague is. He will cost less and I would assume he will be more okay with a bench role than Teague would when Exum gets healthy because he's been there before. You have to remember the team still has hope for Exum. Getting Teague may have caused tension over the starting pg job, Hill hopefully will not.
 
I like this deal if Hill is resigning with us which seems likely given the reports.
I agree Hill is a great fit on the court with his bball IQ, defense, 3P shooting and experience. His work ethic will be exemplary for our young players.

There are some ****ing sick sick plays on this reel. Damn. I'm so excited. I just want him to stay....... that's been my only hangup.

Stay, George. Pls.
 
Hill is going to look so good in Jazz colors.

We need someone to make a background with Hill, Hayward, Favors, Gobert, Hood, Lyles, Exum and Burks.

I'm just really excited to see this team with a PG that opposing team's HAVE to respect.

I feel like it get's lost on a bunch of Jazz fans but our starting 4 w/ Neto had a +7.2 Net Rating (not point differential, offensive rating v defensive rating which is a better measure). Starting 4 w/ Mack had a +9.4 Net Rating. These aren't small sample sizes either, those were our most common 5-man lineups. Not only adding Hill but adding Exum to the mix, I'm pumped.

Only 16(!!!) 5-man Lineups w/ more than 250 minutes together had a better Net Rating than 7.
 
I went and looked into Baldwin hard after reading some of the hype on here and Hill seems like everything we could've hoped for from a pick like Baldwin right?
 
That was a nice video. I was shocked how many big shots he made. You have to have a PG who isn't afraid to take the big shot. Another thing that sticks out is his speed, he was blowing by guys. The defensive play against GS gave me goosebumps.

I can't wait for camp to start.

I think it will take Baldwin at least 3-4 seasons to get close to the kind of consistent plays & leadership at the point that Hill can provide from day 1 ...


Also there is no guarantee what kind of 3pt % Baldwin will put up in the NBA ...
