Sydney Kings sign forward Jeromie Hill

Shoots like Forman but can play the post.

I think the slow comments are sort of valid... it's not like we're expecting him to be Speedy Gonzalez, but from what we've been used to in the NBL is the more leaner sort of 4s or the ones big enough to play the 5 in a pinch, whereas Jeromie looks that old school solid 4 that is too big/slow (compared to the competition at that spot) to fill in at the 3, but also not big enough to really work the... That's fine, but it's a talking point... He actually looks a bit like Oscar (without the aversion to going inside the painted area), but if he merged with bucket arse, sorry, Tony Ronaldson...

I agree though, this season is shaping up to be pretty darn exciting and I can't wait for it to get started!

Cody's lack of minutes last season was a bit puzzling, especially with his effort on the defensive end.

I like the look/sound of Hill.

Well, if I was only given 1 minute in every 10 to do my job, I'd find it a bit hard to be effective as well...

@RMQ - Cody isn't contracted, no... and going by his "use it as motivation" tweet recently, I think they have told him that he's not being re-signed... A shame, I think he did well in limited minutes, especially defensively, but for some reason (probably the limited minutes) couldn't get his shot consistent and looked to fall out of favour with Coach Cotter...

Is Ellis still contracted to the Kings/

It's a similar case to Ellis and where does he fit? Is he too slow for the SF in this league (quite possibly), or is he undersized/understrength to play the 4?

Either way, a good signing I think, will be interesting to see how he works out compared to what Trist and/or Rowley do if they're picked up...

Hill was All-Conference USA First Team last season and dominated. Sweet shooter with range to beyond the arc. They will stretch teams this season with Khazzouh onboard too.

Looks a lil slow - could this be an issue in the NBL?

Kings will have a massive front court with Garlep Kazzough and Hill.

Throw in Childress as well.

Hill should be able to stretch the floor with his shooting ability to.

Markovich should be averaging 10 assists a game!
