Nets assistant coach Brian Hill is leaving for the Pistons.

After facing a hefty pay cut from the Nets, Hill has accepted a multiyear deal to join John Quester’s staff in Detroit.

“Brian is going to Detroit,” team president Rod Thorn said. “He is a terriffic coach and a better guy. Solid all the way. He did a great job and we hate to lose him. His coaching credentials are impeccable.”

Another Nets assistant, Roy Rogers, is still considering a nultiyear offer from Rutgers.
