Hill wants to stay a Sun 

Post#1 » by CourtsideTV » Thu Apr 9, 2009 9:18 pm

"It depends on what the goals and objectives are," said Hill, still looking to advance in the playoffs for the first time in his career. "I think we can still be competitive in the West. My gut tells me they want to continue to compete in the West. I get the feeling they want me back and I want to be back."

Sounds like he is saying..."lolz..i iz gunna bolt to orlando this seazon becuz they will prolly make teh finalz every year from no ons!"

He wants to stay a sun ... until the end of the season when they rebuild and he wants to bolt to a contender.

We should show him .. win the 'ship this year, then when he asks to join, we let him, then intentionally tank next year by doing things like playing Dwight as our starting SF on the wings, and Redick at center. Then watch Stern magically make our 0-82 season end up with the #37th pick or something on the lottery ball night.

Not much else he could say at this point.
Basketball is driven by three principles:

1) Movement 2) Application of fundamentals 3) Predictability

Considering the Suns have been officially eliminated from the playoffs. I believe it's say to say the Suns will enter the rebuilding process and break the team apart, Grant Hill included.

Just stay as far away from Orlando as possible. No need to bring the curse of Grant Hill back here.

Does Hill still play for us? I'm not sure why he's talked about so much.

In short, who cares if he wants to stay or leave the Suns? If he comes back, wonderful, if he stays with the Suns...even better as he won't be here to curse us. If he goes elsewhere, go to Cleveland please.

The guy is an albatross. I don't care what he does so long as it's not signing with Orlando.

The Suns will rebuild after this season.

Grant Hill will go to a contender.

It's as simple as that.

I say he'll go to Lakers. Maybe Spurs, they have a knack for getting old washed up guys.
