Neither are great, but both are better then what we had before I believe. They are both NBA level players.
Not really-- Hamilton is a big wing scorer. Not a great athlete or a efficient shooter. I would have rather had Felix who has the athletic ability to have a chance.
Ingles from what I saw in international ball can shoot and is a strong wing. I expect he will be helpless on defense. However he is Dante's super buddy.

I love the Joe Ingles pick up. He's got a great stroke and a high basketball IQ.

Hamilton is interesting... He's one of the guys I wanted the Jazz to pick up on the cheap. Getting one of Exum's buddies will build some good will and potentially help with mentoring type stuff... never seen the dude play. Felix really looked bad... i always kinda thought we'd carry one of the Murray/Felix group, but not both.
Wow, wow, wow. Ingles is a great addition folks.
He has some defensive deficiencies and it could be more exposed in the NBA, but you can trust me there are many other reasons that make this a great move. You are going to love him. He is an ex-Barca player, a crucial member of the Boomers and he was one of the fav players of David Blatt on the last year's Euroleague champion team. He's a crafty, very smart lefty player. He has nice play-making abilities ala our precious Gordo and he is excellent at P&R offense. Actually forget all, just think a Hayward Lite with sub par defense with being less TO prone.
Two things he's even better than Hayward are his dynamic shooting(he's really good at that) and his Euro-Cuts. (plus maybe his length, 6'8" with 6'10" wingspan).
But most importantly, he is FUN to watch. Believe me if he can adapt to the NBA game, the Jazz will be even more exciting and enjoyable to watch this season. I might be over-reacting now and sound like I'm overrating him but no, I'm REALLY happy with this news.
