Grant Hill Wants Out? 

Post#1 » by The Diesel » Wed Jan 7, 2009 2:09 pm

Hey guys,

A poster on another Phoenix Suns message board said that David Aldridge reported on NBA TV that Hill is unhappy and wants out.

Did anyone else hear about this?

I find this hard to believe; Shaq and Hill are best friends and the Suns are a good team.

If it's true, he must have a problem with Porter. It's the only explanation.

And if that's true, Porter must go. He has pissed off several players with the way he's running the team.

Hill already said if the Suns trade him he retires. Meaning this is the last and only team he wants to play for.

I'm just off to school otherwise I'd find you the article.

I don't believe this story either; but that poster claims that's what David Aldridge said.

i dont think its true knowing how professional he is. he went to suns because of nash and dantoni though, so once nash is gone, maybe thats the time he'll go and ask for a trade.

I wish it was true 2 weeks ago. Dude locked up Melo when we played Nuggets so he has my respect for now.

Kinda still wish this is true so we can trade him. :roll:

I vote to trade you. We all love Grant Hill here. And i dont think he would even get as much in return as Barbosa would at this point in his career.

Hill definitely doesn't want out. He's been a total class act since his Duke days, and is way more professional than even Steve Nash. He loves being able to come into his own and he gets a bigger role on the Suns than he would most other places. I have a huge man crush on him. No homo. Actually yes homo.

Grant Hill has his positive moments, but in all, this dude is too old. His release when shooting is :o
Like I said before, his minutes should be way down since we got Barnes now. No disrespect to Grant because I know he's a giving man but on the court, it's that time to move on with your life.

AND who said ANYTHING about Steve Nash. Now that guy is incredible.

Really? I don't think you can say someone is over the "Hill" when they are the best value in the NBA and our second best playmaker.

My name is Grant Hill and I'm going to let a kid score 37 points on me! Oh and I'm going to let my guy, Danny Granger shoot a wide open shot to win the game, but I'll try to make it seem like it's Nash's fault, hopefully know one sees me not guard him!

Retire already you old fart!!

Hill (hopefully) is not going anywhere.

I didn't realize that he and Shaq were really tight, though?
