Hill was a good player, but we needed size and inside presence when Dalembert out of the line up, and we are going to lose him at the end of the season anyways. We got a 1st rounder in a deep draft, and based on Morey's draft record with late 1st round picks I am sure whoever we get will strengthen the squad.
Well yeah... The Lakers have no backup Center and the Rockets just need a PG to fill in while Lowry's out. That's what the first round pick is for.
The LA trade had little or nothing to do with Hill or Fisher. Fisher could not stay in LA behind Sessions so they gave us Dallas's first round pick to take him. The title of the pick should be "Scrub who isn't going to be a Rocket in 2 months to LA for 1st round pick".
We improved our team while giving away scrubs. Our interior defens improved and the bench got better. In this condensed year I think we will make noise in the playoffs
