[ClutchFans] Jordan Hill shows his potential (w/ video)

The dude is 22 and sat on NY's bench for half a season! Give the guy a chance, what he did the other night in his 1st meaningful minutes of the season was pretty impressive

 

I'm liking what Jeffries and Hill bring. Maybe it's just that it has seemed like forever since we've had a couple of athletic guys.

Play the hell out of these guys...all the way to the lotto.

 

oh man, you just said jeffries is athletic.

hahaha

 

Hill + 12-14th pick for Brandon Wright?

 

I wish we could revisit some of the posts from the time when Landry was a rookie. The guy just wasn't ready to play, sort of like Hill. Now that Landry has had a career season he's revered on this board as if he's a super star. Hill needs time and instruction to develop. Give the kid a chance believe it or not with time he could be every bit as valuable as Landry was.

 

No Way! Brandan Wright is passive and judging from his body language at times, I don't think he loves basketball.

 

Nice thinking and line-up for the Rockets ... would be awesome!

 

You nailed it!

 

He sure seemed to cut to the basket well. I also liked he didn't hesitate on that top of the key jumper. He has the shot, or he wouldn't have shot it so quickly. That will be key when teams start to hedge against him rolling to the basket. It's amazing how one inch seems to make all the difference. A guy at 6 foot 9 is too short but a 6 foot 10 guy is perfect.

 

He looked lost at times, but that's to be expected since 1) he's a rookie and 2) he's having to learn a new offense. We need to play him these last 20 games to see what he can do, and what moves we need to make going forward. However, with some work this offseason I think he'll be a valuable piece

 

It wouldn't surprise me if hill is one those guys like lowry to draw alot of fouls. :grin:
