Didnt see one of these. In a way, I am kind of sad to see him go (at least for what we got; granted the 1st rounder is ok) The dude had some potential IMO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=giBoLFew-oQ
I was wondering when this thread was going to pop up. Hill is a good kid, he probably won't get a chance to develop but I hope for him that he never gives up, if he doesn't he can be a very serviceable player for quite some time in this league, we definitely missed him when he was injured. I wish him the best.
Good luck to J-Hill, if Portland plays him at the four he could be a really good bench player behind Aldrige.
he has a better mid range game than people thought he did didn't get enough credits from this board though
Useless thread for a useless player. He was only good for us beacuse we didn't have anything in the middle. Now we have Camby and Dalembert
All the best for him. He has all the tools to be a successful NBA player. Just need more consistency and effort.

Like others believe, he should been played at the 4...too undersized at 5...his averages per 40 was actually good. And he did help the team as you can see how we struggled with him out...he will be a solid 4 who can get 10 Reb I believe if he gets the chance...I liked having him on our team and wish him the best
I look at this way - I will get to finally see him play more now. I always had hopes for him more than any other the other 09ers. Maybe LA will be good for him - he'll probably be able to get his prop 215 license (for the soreness).
I think Hill has a great opportunity in LA. He won't be playing the 5 there as both Gasol and Bynum have the position in lockdown. Hill is potentially a really good 4. The 5 is just not where he should be at but it was where we had to play him. Hope he pans out.
