The only positive out of this game... Jordan Hill playing time.

Didn't you say Hill was garbage in the OKC game. smh. At allot of people in this thread were the same people calling him a bum last time he played.

Hill and Douglas need to play more. I don't see what else needs to be shown as far as they are concerned.

I hope Mike has a talk with Donnie and can convince him it's time to start playing Hill over Bender.

Sorry Donnie. Bender wasn't working out and he should only get garbage minutes. He's not ready.

He played with a lack of energy early in the season but has picked it up. What do you want us to say in response? The guy was a big plus tonight.

Guys, what matters is that Hill played today. And he provided a spark for us that made the comeback possible at all.

He was able to take Jeffries spot, and provide us points, AND suffocating defense.

Where are the guys saying Hill is not ready and DUMBTONI is right not playing him?where are you guys?

After putting Hill on Villanueva the dude couldn't score a single time in the post.


Honestly D'Antoni should be smacked across his dumb face and forced to play Hill.


Thanks goes to the Pistons for whopping our asses for 3 quarters.

Good game by Hill and Gallo. Lee did well as well. We were down 3, and instead of setting a screen for Gallo or running Nate off the ball, Nate comes and forces a terrible shot. What else is new.

I'm talking about the people that called him bum for his play in the OKC game and say he was not that good. Only time he didn't show energy was in preseason. When ever he played he showed good stuff.

Would you rather have had Duhon been in the game? I mean Nate was key to the comeback. He looked for Hill early and got some nice 3's. What do you want him to do walk on water?

That shot by Gallo with the foot on the line made a ton of difference. That and all those missed rebounds. Not only did they add points on the board for Detroit, they also killed time on the clock.

I thought about this too, but no way Mike sits The Mad Nutter.

Although he should bench him more often for taking selfish shots to send a message. He's like a big Nate Robinson with a post game. He'll shoot you into the game or straight out of it.

Well I'm one of those people. I watched the games that he did play and he did not have a high energy level. This game he did. I don't know if he worked out his jitters but he's playing much better with a lot more swag.
