    Honest question here...
    Is Dunn really that much better than GPII?

    When I have seen Dunn play, I haven't been all that impressed. I haven't seen GPII play. However comparing their stats, GPII has strong indications that he will be the better player of the two (WS/40, A/TO, rebounds, 2p%). The advantage I see that Dunn has is his 3pt shot.

    I'm so glad Portland isn't rumored as a destination for any free agent. Makes it more interesting. You could ask ten people who Portland will be targeting and get ten different answers.

    ATL blowing it up? Maybe we do have a chance at Horford?

    Better yet, Millsap. I could see Millsap and Howard playing together.

    They have been trying to move Teague for a while now.

    ATL is more retooling then blowing it up. Their backup PG arguably outplayed Teague this season.

    That just goes to show how weak this draft is. George Hill is pretty "meh."

    Why didn't Utah just trade 12 for Teague? I would take Teague over Hill tbh.

    Probably felt hill would be a better fit next to exum.

    Yep. Hill can play some SG. Teague is way better PG then Hill imo but he can't play SG.

    Easily.

    Indy trades one hometown guy for another. I feel like the only reason people tolerated Hill here was because he went to HS and college in the area.

    Maybe Hill is getting flipped somewhere else? Part of a trade involving Hayward?

    No kidding. Maybe Utah just doesn't want another rookie on the team and needs more veteran leadership, but I agree Hill is pretty average.

    Hill can't be combined with other players in another deal, correct?

    Dunn is miles ahead of Brown right now, offensively. However, Brown is probably going to be the best perimeter defensive player in this draft, and he can get to the basket. He has the highest ceiling outside of the top 2 imho.

    I'm already seeing people saying this move makes Utah a playoff team. People have been saying that pretty much every year since the year after Deron is Deron left, and I don't think an average at best starting pg adds that many wins. They need a CJ level player at least.

    I think Chriss has highest ceiling outside of the top 2 (maybe even outside the top 1). Problem is he probably also has the lowest floor though.
