    Nice job. Where is another Lowry's steal that led to flagrant foul?

    I really like Jordan Hill. After a monster dunk like that, he didn't flex or grimace or beat his chest to celebrate. Instead, he ran back to prepare for the next defense play immediately.

    Hill's showing some nice fluidity to his game that he didn't have last season. That head fake was great. He may just breakout next year.

    Don't you think there was a little bit of Olajuwan in that Hill dunk? :confused:

    When Hill plays aggressive like this, i feel sorry for the other team.

    He may be a LTD, but he's anything but Limited.

    Thanks for the highlights, Clutch.

    Excellent point, RocketForever. It not only shows maturity but 'coachability.' [It's also a very Rocket trait.]

    Hill is looking better than he ever has in the NBA. The head fake and the footwork are there. He may be breaking out now and just may be, maybe, consistent by the end of the season/next year.

    I think everyone, from the fans to the organization is starting to see Jordan Hill in a different light. And suddenly, it is not an assumption that he is an asset to be traded away.

    If Jordan Hill continues to develop before our very eyes, it will only add to the tension and drama leading up to the trade deadline.
    Does his recent improvement make it easier to fetch a star?
    Can we fetch a star?
    If we trade away Jordan Hill, who is our "tall, athletic dude that can block some shots" and how much do we pay said possible replacement?

    Well said. We are really lucky to have this young player with such good character and tons of upside.

    I'm really impressed with Jordan Hill.

    He definitely is not a player I want to trade away. Jordan is working very hard to become a better player and it's showing. He has a lot of great guys around him to teach him things as well such as passing and knowing the system as a big man (Brad Miller), post moves and footwork (CD, Scola, Sikma), post defense (Hayes), blocking shots (Battier), etc. He really has a great support system around and he has definitely grown as a player. His only problem now is keeping his focus in the game and developing consistency which is something Adelman is really grooming him for.

    I really love this team and we have a great group of guys that are going to help these young players. I expect Terrence Williams to beat out Budinger in the rotation and I actually feel he is going to be a special player for the Rockets. Re-building a team takes patience and with the Rockets FO there is a lot of patience, although in Clutchfans, people just want to ship people out. I'm pretty patient though and happy with the progress our young players are making and will continue to make.
