    I love how Luis gives him some props after the game. Scola/Miller/Chuck will make Jordan Hill into a hardworking stud.


    Bring on Anthony Randolph so he can take part in this development atmosphere.

    This is what i have been waiting for from jordan hill since we made that trade for him... if he continues to work hard day in and day out the sky is the limit for this kid... Yao being done maybe the best thing to happen for the rockets in terms of Hill being left with no choice but to develop right before our very eyes

    Hopefully Hill will be able to bulk up in the off-season and get stronger and we'll have the beginings of a solid front line.

    This kid is great. Got the size, athleticism, the mentality. He's relentless.

    When he rebounds and boxes out, remind me of a young Denis Rodman.

    It's not just you. Bullard does look like a 7 footer standing next to Hill.

    Damn, how tall is Bullard? He was listed as 6'10 but he clearly has 2" over Hill.

    Yeah, it looks like Bullard's an inch taller.

    I didn't get to see the game, but Hill looks awesome in these highlights. That's what I like to see!

    Am I the only one who think Hill would be a better fit in the 4 spot? He is only 6'11 and doesn't have a whole lot of bulk either. I would love to see the rockets pick up another, bigger center and play Hill at the 4. But I'm sure the coaches know more than I do about what he can and can't do.

    If you notice, Bullard is standing in front of Hill. They are probably the same height though. Both 6'10" or 6'11".

    Jordan Hill is tall and lengthy enough to play the C spot. The average height for a starting C in this league is 6'10.75" (maybe dragged down by Chuck Hayes :grin: ). He just needs to bulk up.

    Great stuff, I've been missing a quick and athletic defender. This team for the last few years has been either undersized or too damn slow.

    Kind of makes you wonder if Bullard has anything left for the game.
