Brian Hill Along Quotations

He's done a great job this season and he's done a great job over the last few weeks. He's come along on both ends of the floor and that's something that we've really needed.

I've said all along that the key thing is that we finish up this season on a positive note so that these guys feel good about themselves and feel good about what we can accomplish next year. That's the biggest impetus and with the way we're finishing up, I think everybody feels the same way, that this team has a chance to be a real nice basketball team if we continue to work at it.

This gives us the opportunity to acquire a 7-footer with a high skill level. We feel that he will be a nice complement playing alongside (forward) Dwight Howard.

We get the game where we have the opportunity to win it, then we turn it over. The turnovers in the second half I thought killed us - along with our inability to make shots.

The one thing we did feel was that he was the right type of player to play alongside of Dwight.
