Ultimateknicks.com Forums: Windhorst: Cavs on one yard line for George Hill trade. Thinks they will make multiple moves

Thought that Hill's D had gone south lately, dont know the numbers. Playoff experience would help, but not if Hill's defense is not what it was. Sounds like they dont have much wiggle room if this is their "big move". Or they believe there is a good chance that LeBron will leave, and dont want to empty the cubbard, so to speak.

Wonder how LeBron rates this move, if it happens? He just very publicly congratulated himself on being near the 30k pt mark. I will be very suprised if LeBron is back next season for the Cavs.

They mentioned Hill's D being bad on the clip. I don't watch the Kings unless they play the Knicks so I can't speak to it. Shump and Frye aren't a lot to give up. Are both guys expiring?

It sounds like Hill mailed it a while ago. I think a playoff push would rejuvenate him.

Hill's having a bad year but he'd be the best guard on Cleveland, assuming IT doesn't make it all the way back, and he's shooting 44% from 3. If all Cleveland's really giving up is Frye and Shumpert then it's a no-brainer for Cleveland.

Now the joy of my world is in Zion How beautiful if nothing more Than to wait at Zion's door I've never been in love like this before Now let me pray to keep you from The perils that will surely come

Agreed. Its only a 1 1/2 yr rental with his last year only guaranteed for $1m.

If its the first move, maybe. Cant be just this to get past GS. I guess its smart because they arent mortgaging the future, agree with that.

ESPN ticker said draft considerations from Cleveland. I can't imagine they give up a 1st. They need to make another move if they go this route.

Oh wow, that's an even better deal for Cleveland then.

Cleveland's getting a 2020 2nd rounder from Miami. Maybe that packaged with another 2nd? No way Cleveland's giving up the BK pick or a future 1st for Hill and they shouldn't give up their own 1st for Hill.
