O.J. Mayo would have fit so well on the Pacers

I'm kind of mad that that trade didn't go down even though I'm not a Pacer fan. Pacers would have had a nice SG with a lot of potential that could defend and score. And they would have gotten him for cheap too.

OJ MAyo and Lance Stephenson on the same team would have been a dream come true for analysts before they hit the NBA.

It may have helped significantly in the playoffs, but I'd honestly rather have George Hill right now.

George Hill >>> OJ Mayo

Yeah, I'm much happier to have Hill. He's by far the better two way player, a team guy and certainly more consistent.

Passing on the Mayo is always a good move. U always end up with something better: George Hill, ketchup...

Though George Hill was an absolutely great acquisition, we still need a starting 2, IMO.
I don't really know what Hill's role will be but i think he's the kind of "finisher" Larry's been targeting since then. He could have the same role as he had with the Spurs, with more minutes.

Hold the Mayo on my Pacers! I'd rather have Hill!

I'm almost certain George Hill will be an all star for you guys. This guy was the runner up for Most Improved Player in his second year in the league. He's a very hard worker. He didn't have much range on his jump shot when he came in hte league and now he's a very respectable 3 point shooter. I'm kinda sad to see him go, but I know he'll feel right at home in Indiana where he belongs (his hometown).
