Just like Curry would choose to stand with Green, Malone also understands the concept of merit basketball.
"What do you think of George Hill?"
But Griffin's sudden question made Malone pause for a moment.
After coming to his senses, he immediately understood the implication behind Griffin's words.
Griffin wants to trade JR for George Hill.
Hill is an all-around guard, capable of organizing, hitting threes, and defending, with a tenacious personality and strong execution—exactly the type of player a coach would love.
Currently, Smith has been squeezed out of the Cavaliers' rotation, but he still earns over 15 million dollars, and now he's causing trouble. If the Cavaliers can use him as the main piece to trade for Hill, that would undoubtedly be better for the team.
"Would the Kings agree?" If it were Lue, he would probably oppose it due to his emotional nature, but Malone is more rational.
