Who would you rather have as your 15th man?

Hollins without a doubt

Collins -- more physical toughness.

Collins.  Can't see anything that Hollins brought to the team, but Collins I believe brings size, strength and some defensive presence.  I think he'll be better (a little) than he's shown so far as he gets used to playing in a static role.

Hollins.  He had about a -8 net rating for us last year, while Collins is -30 for us this year.

Also while Hollins had very little impact on the scoreboard, he always seemed to play with a lot of energy, like he had something to prove.  Collins allows opposing bigs to score at will, and when they aren't scoring he's sending them to the line (where they then ARE scoring).

Hollins brought energy and hustle, like he was trying constantly. When Collins plays, we have a better chance on D if we plant a tree in the paint.

dirt or sand ? i don't think either should be getting playing time. wilcox and sully should get them. bass needs to start earning his time. haven't been impressed by his play so far

I have yet to see Collins fall over while trying to dribble a basketball.

There's still plenty of time, though.

I really liked Ryan Hollins last year for the Celtics, he was a better man defender than Greg Stiemsma, and could provide a nice spark with his speed and energy.

I really like Hollins attitude/hustle, but I'd take Collins right now, bc he can give a harder foul. And at his roster position...what more can you ask?
