Here's a new mix of Jordan Hill (via youtube and Tommy Dee). In addition to all of the other attributes mentioned about Hill, these highlights show that he also has great hands and is very coordinated. Great attributes for a Big man and he also fits perfectly with MDA's fast transition game. A coach can make a player better, but it really helps when the player fits the coach's system.



Re: Gallinari - he also is 6'10" and has a great shot, runs the floor well; excellent ball-handler.

Hill looks nice in those highlights and I like that MDA is high on him as well.

Personally I think the Knicks are doing the right thing and adding some length - Gallo at 6'10, Hill at 6'10 - I don't know what will happen with Lee but he is probably out of here, so at least we don't lost size but if you look at all the elite teams, they have a lot of length to them and I have always felt we needed more - ever since Camby was traded.
