    Don't think I saw one made. This guy played great defense on Gasol. His length really bothered Gasol.

    His rebounding down the stretch was vital for the win as well.

    Really liking what I have seen from Jordan so far this season, is making big steps and I believe can become a very good player for us in the future.

    J Hill outplayed Gasol tonight.

    He also made those 2 clutch freethrows down the stretch.

    I want to keep Hill, this kid has a lot of potential.

    Did he really just have 4 rebounds?

    Yeah, he seems to have a great attitude and works hard. His jumper is getting better and he attacks the basket strong. Just give him a season or two, and he'll develop nicely.

    I was thinking the same thing. He brings badly needed toughness to the team. Scola's elbow's flailing is great, but having that big mofo jumping is just scary.

    The thing that most impressed me with Hill in this game was his defensive footwork. It was nearly perfect. This guy knows how to position himself one on one down low and it's paying off.

    His and Scola's rebounding and tenacity on the boards really gave us a chance.

    I think I'd like to hang onto Jordan Hill and see what kind of player he blossoms into. I hadn't quite made up my mind until tonight against the Lakers.

    His defensive and rebounding was HUGE tonight, dude grew up tonight but he needs to bring this same level of intensity vs Memphis and Chicago.

    Jordan Hill was awesome tonight. Didn't give up an inch to Pau, and was swarming the boards for timely and pivotal rebounds during clutchtime.

    He would easily have 2 or 3 more, but he was fouled instead.

    I was thinking the same thing. He definitely tipped a lot of extra rebounds to teammates.

    This and he had a few tip balls that kept the Lakers at bay.

    His presence was definitely felt inside.

    If the rockets can be back to playoffs this season, the biggest reason will be Jordan Hill.
