[QUOTE="IlliniKat91, post: 1812194, member: 9133"] Hodges is insanely athletic. We were in 106 row 3 and we sitting just below rim level. His head was well above the rim on his dunks. More than once I found myself saying, "Damn!" as I watched him make those plays. Rose, Jr. is a bulldog. Made good decisions with the ball and wasn't afraid to attack the rim or go for rebounds despite being the shortest guy on the court. He couldn't seem to miss in the first half and kept it closer than any of us thought it would be. Malone and Carlesimo had some nice plays, too, but didn't stand out to me the way Hodges and Rose, Jr. did. Hamlin seemed to play stronger than when he was with us, but didn't seem to dominate the way one might hope a guy who went up against Kofi in practice might have. He didn't let himself get bodied, but didn't seem like a particularly strong presence in the paint, either. [/QUOTE]
