George Hill

“I like to play 'Rock Band' - a lot.”

“We can't worry about this person or that person, how many shots people are getting or minutes. We just got to try to win a game.”

“It's not about scoring, it's having that presence out there and managing the game and getting everyone involved.”

“You can win a championship, but the amount of fulfillment that I get knowing I've impacted a whole community is bigger than a championship for me. It's what I stand for. It's how I live. And I think that's how the world should try to see itself to impact other people's lives.”

“If you're sitting for more of the majority of the game and you really don't get a lot of touches, maybe every once in a while your confidence and your rhythm is probably out of sync.”

“I just go out and try to do my job the best I can. If that's playing defense as hard as I can or if that's taking the opportunity to score I'll do that, but it's all about just winning the game no matter what happens.”

“God just blessed me with a talent to play basketball. If I didn't have that talent, I possibly would've been that George Floyd.”

“If all of us were trying to handle the ball at the same time, then we'd have a problem.”

“It's all about what I can do to help the team win.”

“You can always make an imprint on the game no matter what you do.”

“I never thought I'd be anything, coming from a rough neighborhood. So my character was built on the street. I had to know how to carry myself; I had to act like I was older than I was.”

“Sometimes it takes guys time to get acclimated, especially to a good team. You try to find out what's going to be your role on the team that's already good.”

“Sometimes in life, you can't do things that you really want to do.”

“At the end of the day, you're only going to be allowed to play basketball for a short period of time. You're a human other than that for the rest of your life. So it's safe to say that basketball doesn't define me. It's just a sport that I was blessed to play.”

“Sometimes you have to stand up for what's right, and sometimes that may be ruffling feathers and may be frowned upon by everyone else, but at the end of the day in your heart, knowing you're on the right side of history and knowing that you did the right thing, good or bad, you have to live with that.”

“I never knew how tough it was to play that 14-second shot clock mentality.”

“The only thing I hunt on my land is wild hogs and coyotes, because they cause so many problems.”

“At the end of the day, it's basketball. You've got to put the ball in the basket.”

“I just love to be outdoors.”

“The world is bigger than just NBA fans.”
