2011 NBA Draft Results: 10 Reasons Why San Antonio Traded 'Naked' George Hill

Did the San Antonio Spurs find more naked George Hill pics? I'll bet some of you ladies in the Alamo City would like to know. I couldn't care less, but if they did, then I must report it.

San Antonio's reporters and fans said goodbye to the young baller much beloved by Gregg Popovich—George Hill. Coach Pop is rumored to like Richardson Jefferson as a person. Could R.J. be in the middle of the current overhaul? Time will tell.

Meanwhile, follow me in this entertaining package put together for your pleasure and enjoyment.  Here are 10 reasons why the Spurs suddenly rolled George Hill to Indiana in exchange for a first-rounder.

Roll slides...roll...

10. The Spurs Want to Get Taller Ballers

Did the Indiana Pacers' pick in the first round, 6'7" Kawhi Leonard, know what was up before the draft? He was dressed in Spurs colors strutting across the stage to stand next to diminutive David Stern.

Leonard could become Bruce Bowen in San Antonio—at least the Spurs hope so. He must do so, in order for this George Hill picture to develop.

9. Coach Popovich Has Another Point Guard Prospect Under Surveillance

General manager R.C. Buford and Gregg Popovich are known for spotting talent overseas, under nooks, crannies and naked photos published on the world wide web.

Gary Neal is a prime example—not of naked pics on the web. I suspect San Antonio is eyeing another guard—perhaps a Frenchman.

Ladies loved Cool George, though. Oui, oui, monsieur.

8. Da'Sean Butler Can Handle the Rock

Da'Sean Butler was signed by the Spurs this year. He was Bob Huggins' closer at West Virginia University, but Butler tore his knees up in April 2010.

The Miami Heat drafted him with the 42nd pick in 2010 but waived him during training camp. The Spurs signed him on March 25. San Antonio placed him on injured reserve until he returns, which could be the start of next season.

A solid defender, Butler is bigger than Hill, can get his own shot and is capable of catalyzing for others.

7. Corey Joseph Could Become George Hill

The Texas Longhorns had Tristan Thompson, Jordan Hamilton and Corey Joseph selected in this year's draft. Joseph is a running back at point guard and fits in with the Spurs plans to get bigger. 

Although he's not as quick as Hill, he could provide a change of pace. Whereas Hill and Parker were almost the same player, Joseph complements Tony's game more.

6. Hill Secretly Wanted out of San Antonio, and Tony Parker Couldn't Blame Him

George Hill wasn't the only Spurs player who flopped in the first round against the Memphis Grizzlies.   

After setting the NBA on fire during the regular season, Tony Parker, Tim Duncan and the rest of San Antonio underachieved in the playoffs.

Hill was smart enough to keep his desire to leave S.A. to himself—Parker wasn't. Now, George—Tony's backup—is viewed as a hero, while Parker is a villain. 

5. Tony "What'd I Say?" Parker Won't Get Traded This Offseason

Even if movement doesn't occur during this offseason, stay tuned for more on this one, because Tony Parker could still be traded. 

Offseason—that's the key word.

After telling people in France the Spurs were finished (allegedly), Parker could be out of the Alamo City faster than old Santa Anna's army. The looming NBA lockout could save him from being traded for awhile.

4. Manu Ginoblili Can Play Backup Point

Word on the streets is that Manu Ginobili shouldn't have been playing against Memphis. His elbow was so mangled, he should have sat the first round out.

Really? That's not what Tony Parker thinks. But who is listening to a recently divorced point guard from France in San Antonio?

You are, S.A., America. Yes,  you.

3. The Spurs Have Their Eyes on Steve "Soccer Ball Head First" Nash

Chicks dig the three ball, and Nash can provide it with more consistency than most guards—Jason Richardson notwithstanding. "Hey, NBA contenders—true baller over here!"

Word on the streets is that Nash is looking to join a contender as he gets longer in the tooth.  Phoenix could oblige, but...San Antonio?

This is the team Nash has had epic trouble getting past.

If you can't beat them...join 'em.

2. Tony Parker Couldn't Play Nice Alongside George Hill Any Longer

Once insisting the Spurs didn't need Jason Kidd before Popovich made him clam up, Tony Parker isn't one of the best teammates to ever grace the NBA's hallowed hardwoods.

Parker lets his feelings be known on a variety of subjects including basketball in New York, rocking chair teammates and dinosaurs on defense. No word on whether or not his divorce attorney can defend the perimeter.

1. Popovich Learned TMZ Was Seeking More Naked Hill Pics
