Happy Trails George Hill

[CavsFanJapan]

Hill played some good defense with a couple of clean strips on KD that were bs foul calls. Tough to stomach him missing that free though. If GS hits a game winner shot after that so be it. Would have been easier to deal with then whatever the hell actually happened.

Couldn’t agree more. I still can’t belive what happened. Fucking Korver missing a tech too. WTF?!!

George Hill is notorious for missing clutch free throws. Ask Indiana fans. Waited his whole life for that moment and he blew it.

Love LeBron, but don't know why he put him in this position.

Refs could have easily called not called a foul with the way things were gong.

George Hill is a backup PG. I'm not 100% convinced he's that much better than Jose.

George Hill is the only JR supporter left. JR let him off the hook with his stupidity.

If Lue had a pair he'd tell Hill to stay after and make 10,000 FTs before he goes back to the hotel.

If not fouled he would have had a wide open lay up. This was much easier than the lay up made in game seven against Boston. These refs should be suspended the remainder of the playoffs.

I mean, it's fucked that he missed the free throw, but missed FTs happen. The JR Smith thing can't happen and was just inexcusable.

He missed it by a lot, he front rimmed a free throw. The situation absolutely got to him. Maybe Hack-a-Hill is going to be a feasible strategy in late game pressure situations for Golden State

On top of that, is that really a foul?

Seems like Hill is the one who hooks Klay. What I don't understand is, if i'm processing this correctly, why? It's a fucking wide open layup. Why flop?

Again I'm not the expert about refereeing and I know they fucked us pretty bad but I feel like this particular play here would've so easily be a no call.

Is George Hill just a low energy version of Delly? He is definitely more athletic than Delly and that shows up when he is defending a guy like Curry. He just doesn't show it on the offensive side of the ball often enough. I feel like Delly would make a more consistent impact on the game than Hill has in the playoffs.

I Rewatched hill shooting those FTs. He was definitely shook. His face looked like he was watching someone kill his dog or something.

I’m not sure watching it over and over is good for the man’s psyche.

 

[fan0283]

Not even mad. Anyone can choke. Heck I'd probably choke in his shoes. if he made that we go up one but the Warriors get the ball with 5 seconds on the clock. The next best possible outcome played out when we got the offensive rebound and what should have been the final shot then cannabis ruined the rest

 

[TitleTown]

I'm not mad at Hill one bit. I actually think missing the second one was better than giving GSW the ball back with a 1pt lead.

If only JR would have passed to a WIDE OPEN LeBron.

There were WAY too many times tonight where Hill could have fought through screens to stay on Curry, but instead he just easily gives up the switch to allow Love to guard Curry.
