    Great sub by Adelman to put in Hill for Miller who was probably going to get ejected with the way he was acting out there.

    If Cousins can learn to pass the ball out of the post he could be special. He has a really nice post game that'll only get better as long as his attitude is ok. They just need to have shooters around him along with one wing who can create his own shot (not Evans, he's too ball dominant).

    Hill with a great game, Lowry showing he needs to remain a starter and we need to keep bringing brooks off the pine.

    The TRUE Kings of the court: Jordan Hill & Courney Lee

    The TRUE Kings of the court: Jordan Hill & Courney Lee

    Lee played exceptional perimeter defense on Tyreke Evans, and he was very efficient on the offensive end of the floor. He's very effective on the break, evidenced by his quick flush over Cousins in the open court. He contributed 9 points (4-5 FG) in only 14 minutes of action.

    Hill showed a very soft touch around the cup, and snagged a handful of critical boards in the 2nd half. He hit an off-balance jumper 5 feet from the basket as the shot clock expired in the 1st half, and later dropped in a baby hook after receiving a bounce pass under the rim. He grabbed 9 boards, swatted 4 shots, and scrapped for loose balls/appeared to be much more engaged.

    Hill was clearly the catalyst behind the Rockets' 16-4 run down the stretch, and as he mentioned in the post-game interview, this team "needs a long, tall dude" to enforce around the glass, and he appears to be the man for the job. Lee's deserving of more PT, yet Adelman's sticking to his guns, and continually throwing Bud in to the mix.

    Does Hill deserve to start, and will Adelman push Bud to the end of the bench in favor of Lee? I know he's been mentioned in trade speculation, but how will he factor in to the mix when T-Will becomes acclimated with the system? Who's the odd man out Lee, T-Will, or Bud? Discuss...

    Great effort in the 4th quarter and Hill with some nice blocks. I want to see more of that!

    Screw the double double. I would have found the 4 blocks still more impressive than 10pts 10 rbs.

    OMG 4 BLOCKS in 22 minutes!

    12 PTS FOR THE KINGS IN THE 4th!

    I can't remember the last the Rockets held an opponent to 12 pts in the 4th without Yao Ming.

    One of Jordan Hill's better games in his young career. Thoroughly impressed.

    Brooks needs to get his legs under him before he has his speed back. Should blossom as a gunner off the bench.

    Lowry with a sloppy game with too many turnovers but came up when it counted. 13 points 6 rebounds(4 offensive) 7 assists 2/3 from 3, pretty much what we expect a poor game would look like outta him these days.

    Martin looked bad on a few possessions defensively, but once we put Lee or Battier on Evans he was hidden nicely and came up with a clutch and 1 down the stretch. You hide him on defense and he will contribute on offense. Not too difficult to understand people.

    Go for 3 in a row.
