I wonder if Hill would start today if avalaible in the case Seth cannot play.

I really think he should end being the starter.

End being the starter? Based on what? He has not played in ages. You can't just expect him to come out and be the next Jabari Parker! Or can you? :D
The Accession of Paul Reed is upon us !

You want it to be one way....but it's the other way.

Can’t wait to see Hill at point guard. I hope he’s as good as I think he is.

He might not even play. He rolled his ankle last game and is questionable.

What do you guys think of him now that he played a few games? I know that hes coming of a serious injury, and his value will be measured in the playoffs, but i´m a little bit unimpressed with him. If he continues playing like this, i would probably try to ship him in a big trade next year, giving the reins to Maxey to be the first pg of the bench.

I don’t see him in a Sixers uniform next season, he’s making 10 million. I see him being shipped as a salary filler for some better player with somebody + picks.
Of course all depends on how far we go.

He's played a few fairly meaningless games coming off a long injury recovery. I think he's been fine and needs time to build some chemistry with the team. The biggest impact he has on the team is that he lightens the load on players like Seth & Shake so his true impact will take some time to realize.

I still wouldn't be surprised to see him traded next year because he has a tradeable contract but I feel confident he'll provide value this season.

I dont know if I mentioned it at the time but I definitely thought it. I was surprised the NYK basically stole Rose. We could have used him

Good fit but he’s not THAT good. And he looks slower than I expect him to be

Good fit because he can be the first guy off the bench, to sub Seth. Then we can have Seth-Milton stabilize our 2nd unit’s offense. Then GHill can play SF that allows us to play a small unit with D12.

He was never going to be the much needed perimeter scorer we need.

He may play a bigger role in the playoffs when we need to defend guys like Kyrie or Harden

I kept saying we should go after Rose, I wonder hard we went after him, could have been the difference maker to win the title
