Who got the better deal? Pacers getting Hill or Spurs Leonard?

Im bringin this up because the Spurs got ripped off for the GM of the year award. Spurs GM raped Larry Bird with this trade. Spurs got Leonard and two draft pick players playing overseas. Not only that, but the Spurs scouted out overlooked players and made them into significant role players. Pacers just had high draft picks.

    In the OVERALL I think the Spurs got the better end, but as for Kwahi Leonard v.s. George Hill trade it's was an even deal. Hill fit the exact need the Pacers had, just as Leonard has done for the Spurs. However in the long run I think Leonard will be the better player. Hill has been in the league for a few years now. Yes he will improve, but once a guy gets passed his third year your normally seeing what your going to get. Leonard is a rookie, and already he has been one of the most productive players the Spurs have had in years.

    I have to agree with most of the board. The trade with just those 2 players involved was pretty straight up even. Both guys fit a hole and a need on each team's roster. That being said the difference where the Spurs got the win is the back end of the deal which included other draft picks and some signed overseas players. San Antonio, for whatever reason, has proven that when it comes to evaluating overseas talent, they wrote the book. That portion of the deal gives them the edge but its not like Indiana got screwed or anything San Antonio just got a slight edge on the overall deal. As a Spurs fan I do miss Hill though. He was a good player I'm happy he's doing good things for the Pacers. I think if I'm not mistaken he's from Indiana so at least for him it was a home-coming of sorts.

    I think it was a win-win trade. Pacers sure have prospered with George Hill. Good deal for both teams.

    it truly is between the most proper questions i have considered the following. The solutions are also exciting, precise, or maybe awesome. it really is been my small statement that many adult adult males nonetheless imagine they have the more effective advantageous deal and "women human beings's artwork" is boring. one element that shocked me in interpreting the solutions is what number women human beings said functional issues about the artwork they do and how gratifying it must be. i have worked outdoors the domicile in intense tech industries that house responsibilities won't be able to carry a candle to so some distance as complexity, and exciting concern count and that i love the stimulating ecosystem. i'd bypass bonkers attempting to augment youthful children. i'd also bypass bonkers with worry if I had to wrestle in a conflict. I agree that roles are replacing, yet there remains countless social pressure for human beings to look or act particular methods. for example, women human beings can placed on almost some thing, yet a guy ought to lose his interest, family members, even his existence, if he wore women human beings's clothing in public. i imagine i will ask a question about this sometime. I also see how adult adult males can earnings financially from their education and artwork. many women human beings nonetheless attempt to marry someone who can help them. then back, in the experience that they don't earnings adequate financially from the marriage, and outlive their better 0.5, then they could have little money, or education to position self assurance in at the same time as they grow old. She may no longer have had sturdy paying jobs lengthy adequate to get social protection so she may face poverty. that is a puzzling question to respond to, yet a sturdy answer can help many human beings. perchance basic methods to get through is to no longer hassle about belongings you won't be able to replace and stumble on the thanks to get alongside to boot as you may with what you've available (i.e. skills, information, possessions, even with.)
