    Hill played passive offensively, but was very active chasing his man around, I thought.


    IMO, Pop should use him as that 4th quarter tourniquet lockdown guy he did for a stretch towards the end of the season. If he messes up, pull him out. So simple. Yet...

    any reliable infos about this?
    Sounds like bull to me. At least, all I heard is praise from the coaching staff about Hill and his work ethic. I don't think him not playing has anything to do with Pop not liking him, to the contrary. I think it has more to do with Pop wanting to develop the guy one step at a time.

    The only real explanation for Pop treating Hill the same way he treats Beno might be because Hill does things like come in hung over that remind him of Beno.

    Your right about bonner but big rog played in the po s when arenas was out. Thays when I developed my opinion of him. He's got a big heart

    I'm sorry but this makes too much sense. Bonner, Mason and Udoka. Not exactly a defensive stalwart trio.

    Add Gooden and Bowen to that group and you have the lineup that played really well against Kidd, Dirk, Barea, Howard and Bass.
