There were better lines last night, but this is my last chance to salute George Hill. If you’ve figured out how to manipulate my stats pages, you’ve seen a name that doesn’t belong in the top five in offensive rating among high-usage player. The list currently goes: Redick, Fazekas, Morrison, Hill, Foye. This was an average performance for Hill, except for the free throw shooting – he was an 82% shooter from the line coming into this one. This guy does everything well and is only a sophomore. Playing for a slow-paced team doesn’t allow him to rack up gaudy numbers, but he’ll terrorize MidCon opponents again next season.
