I think the complaint is George Hill has more value than Adams. So sending picks on top of Hill isn't a good deal.

We sent one pick we had previously possessed and the other 2nd is far out. This isn’t bad

George hill was never coming here. The trade wasn’t even finalized.

maybe on 2K21, but in the real world, we were very G heavy, needed a starting C, as well as a more physical defensive presence..... Adams is the BEST option for the latter, so it makes ALL the sense to trade the former...

and the picks are not going to end up being high picks anyway.... and sure you could say, well, you could package 2 1st rounders to move up into the top 5 or whatever, but that STILL doesn't get you a proven commodity like Adams... and at some point, we need a team with at least SOME veteran presence, not just a bunch of guys under 23 w/ athleticism and some talent...

Hill was a positive. Vet backup pg that can shoot the three. An asset always wanted by contenders. We gave up a 2nd last year for our vet center on an expiring deal. That was a way better value than what the Adams contract is. Adams is a better player than Favors no doubt but not sure if hes 12 million a year better. And we give up a first and two seconds? Puzzling trade
