Foster, Hansbourgh, Jones, Hill, and Price.

I was proud of those guys in the third quarter!
It was stressful, difficult, painful, and almost futile trying to get a basket against that squad.

And offense was not a problem either because...
Getting smothered didnt put the cats in a good mood to play much D.
Scoreing looked easy.

Glad we got another W.

And glad Hill played well. Or so it appears...

Wasn't able to catch the game but I'm happy when any of our players have a good game. I love that we're winning with everyone putting up average numbers. That doesn't mean they're average players, it just means they're willing to defer as long as they win. Who needs superstars when you play team ball?

Anyways... I made some snotty comments about Hill early but not because I had a problem with him but because I don't play favorites. The best player plays and it's a team effort. I was just kind of a dick about it because while the home town kid succeeding is nice... winning is nicer. I want all of our players to do well and could care less where they're from. Just as long as they keep their nose clean off the court and play well on it. That's really all that matters to me.

Couldn't watch the game, but it looks like we came out and dominated the 2nd half. I watched the recap video on NBA.com and at one point the guy calls Charlotte the Hornets. The box score says 17,226 attendance, great to see the city getting behind this team.

If you get a chance then watch the game. He can play D! We put him on Augustin and Augustin all of sudden stopped torching us. Collison couldn't keep him out of the lane.

Hill is shooting 45% from the floor and 35% from 3. In 24 minutes he gives us 10pts/3rebs/2assts/1stl per game. If he started and got consistent minutes with the starters, like Collison does, he could easily put up Collison's numbers with much better D and penetration.
