You want to find the NEXT 3-and-D stud that seemingly comes out of nowhere? Just look to the past. With that in mind, let’s take a look around the league for some guys who fit the profile:


quote:
Solomon Hill, Indiana Pacers Solomon Hill was a guy who improved every year in college, particularly his shooting, and also filled the stat sheet with rebounds, assists, and steals. He is also athletic and universally known as a hard worker, but after showing some flashes last November when he got a chance to start in Paul George’s absence, he has tailed off quite a bit and is now barely in Indiana’s rotation. His 3-point shooting has gone from bad to okay to awful, but many experts say that FT shooting is actually a better predictor of future 3-pt percentage for wings, and Hill is fantastic, hitting 83.2% of his 200+ career attempts

-Michael McNamara





Still the best part of this thread

Crazy how we just signed 2 better players for less combined years and less combined money.

Right.... And when you read my article, its all about how we should try to find the next Demarre Carroll - the one who signed in Atlanta for 2 years/6 million

Instead, Dell paid Hill like he was already the proven version of Carroll, when he got 4/60

Wouldn't it be better to have Randle locked up for 4 years or at least 2 so we could have early bird rights? I feel like Randle will just be a 1 year rental

Randle wants money.
He decided to bet on himself on a one year deal.

There is no way he would have agreed for 4year MLE.

Also next year there will be more money around.

No brainer.

Lol Crewz. There’s a reason he has to work a regular job now instead of being a sports writer

Crewz hating the signing. You can read the thread and see how much he trashed it.

Yeah, I mean...you were one of the harshest people in this thread on it.

I was on vacation during this thread so I was kind of on a high trying to find a way to justify it, and really not paying too close attention to things.

Regardless. The signing turned out to be a disastrous one. It happens. Time to move on.

Honestly, I think people hate on Mac because they are jealous. I bust his balls, but it’s all in jest. There is no doubt he has sources, and he is very knowledgeable. With that said, even the most knowledgeable are wrong on occasion, but this wasn’t one of those occasions.

Wanna call me out for being wrong? Pull up my takes on Jrue's signing last year. BASHED it. Preferred George Hill at a smaller price. Or Collison.

THATS a good one to call me out on. For those who get a kick out of those sort of things.
