    The more I watch this kid play, the more I can't understand the Knicks decision to not give him any playing time.

    I think he could've posterized McRoberts, if he would've taken it in one handed ala Stoudemire...

    I've seen Jordan Hill get blocked quite a few times when he goes for the dunk...Maybe its because he's dunking with two hands?

    Loved one of the comments, something along the lines of, "It's so nice to have a tall athletic big man for a change!" :cool:

    Great Job Clutch!

    I'm looking forward to Hill highlights for the rest of the games ;)

    With a little work in the weight room and some tennis balls he'll be a beast for years.

    He sets pretty good picks and seem to have nice soft touch around the basket.

    I love that downscreen play where he is either setting the screen for Chase on the little curl or for Scola coming out high.

    It looks alot like Steve Nash to Amare. Jordan needs to slam the ball more. Guy has some talent.

    Hill's hands and arms are not that strong. Often times when he gets fouled the ball goes flying, something he can work on in the summer.

    Better he takes it up strong with two hands than going for the finish with one. Refs usually reward players for that.

    Hill is a very skilled player, love to watch this guy. It seems right now he's splitting all of his time with Hayes, I think he needs more minutes though.

    At the 1:20 mark, I think that was a flagrant foul by McRoberts. He wasn't even trying to go for the ball.

    He looked like he was about to throw a Dominique style dunk at 1:20

    Bad coach, bad GM, simple as that.

    The great dunkers move the ball while in the air...I've seen Jordan (one hand) and Wilkins (2 hands) avoid Olajuwon and other shotblockers using this technique. Otis Thorpe was a master at it because the basketball was like a marble for him...
