Jazz, George Hill taking contract talks down to wire

Here's a spreadsheet of players with lower-leg stress fractures, and the rate of re-injury & future same-area injuries.

Jrue has had no lower-leg problems for two seasons, running, and has only missed games for a sick wife & a right-orbital wall fracture.

Given the amount of dings that George has had this season, this does *not* bode well for an already aging player.

OH my god, Hill's camp reportedly thinks he could be getting a max deal this offseason worth as much as $132 million over 4 years.

The $88.3 million the Jazz could have given Hill to get him to commit through the 2019-20 season -- a raise of the $13.6 million they have in available cap space this season and a three-year extension worth another $74.7 million -- is almost twice as much money as the nine-year veteran has made in his career so far. But it’s not nearly as much as the $132 million over four years sources say his camp thinks he might be able to command this summer.

I'm sorry but Hill isn't worth that much RIGHT NOW and he sure isn't going to be worth $30m+ per year when he's 35 years old.

In the two games (very small, worthless sample size) since the extension talks broke down George "Max Money" Hill is averaging 29 minutes per game, 8.5 point per game on 38% shooting (7-18), 0% from 3 (0-5), 5.5 assists per game, 2 rebounds per game, and 2 turnovers per game.
