To hell with the haters, Hughes is nice. Only problem with him is that he has the attitude of an All-Star and the diminished skills of a really good role player.

He was in over his head as the Robin to Lebron's Batman --- but he should be good for us for the next year and half. If Zeke was still here, he would of traded three number one picks for him. We got his ass for nothing.

I hated this dude. I have to admit, he looks good at the moment.

Let's not go crazy here. The dude did pretty much single handedly cost us a couple of wins there.

again, it had to be expected he would look real rusty his first few games... i dunno any NBA player that can come in cold from over a month of inactivity & start knocking down shots right off the bat.

I liked the way Hughes hustled up the floor on offense and remained active on defense. He has excellent feetwork.

Few people talk about his wingspan.

So sue me

Look, he was terrible and cost us a couple of games. Now he looks great and was our best player this game.

That's just being honest.

Costing us a couple of games in a playoff chase is nothing to sneeze at.

What you get from him every night is good defense. What you get some nights is good offense. Also, he can help bring the ball up and start a play when needed. All in all, he's a good addition considering what we gave up for him. And he's a good fit for this team. With him starting ahead of QRich, we upgraded the two.

i never said it was... but when u call a guy garbage based on a 2 game sample after he'd just gone over a month w/o playing u gotta admit that's a little unfair.

Hughes is gonna have good games & bad games, he's a streaky player... but the guy can ball.

Ira - compared to what Q Rich was bringing, Hughes is more fun than The Easter Bunny with a basket full of candy
