    To show Hill what he needs to do get more minutes; playing time is earned, not given:)

    Jared Jeffries probably plays hard in practice. Hard as Greg Oden, maybe harder. This pleases Adelman.

    I'm all for getting Hill more minutes, but how can you really complain when he had such a solid game?

    JJ was defending Zach better than Chuck or Jordan. But he really surprised everyone with his scoring. Still I hope his presence doesn't make Shane redundant for DM.

    RA is known to bring out the best in his players. His system requires sharing the ball and puts them in spots where they are at their best. Now if only Trevor can be consistently under control.

    12pts and 9 boards in 16 minutes = playing time earned

    Yes!!! This is not the NFL; you have to play BOTH defense and offense. Luv ya Chuck, but... Well, you know.

    Because we really don't have any other option at the Center spot. Not only that, he had a great game last night. You really can't dog the man. He's not as bad as we all are lead to believe. He's just highly overpaid for the Thomas years in NY.

    Didn't watch the game but box score says:

    Jeffries:
    12 points, 10 rebounds, 4 blocks

    That's a pretty solid outing and well worth his contract if those numbers were consistent.

    As much as some fans on here want to see the team tank and see the younger guys play, Adelman's job is to win games.

    I'd love to see Hill start a couple games at Center because I think he would be more effective than Hayes at this point, but it probably won't happen...
