Grant Hill 

Post#1 » by jazzy_jeff » Sat Jun 27, 2009 9:48 pm

He's made it pretty clear he wants to come back to PHX. But how does management's apparent rebuilding philosophy and the trading of Shaq affect the odds he's back?

I don't think he will be back anymore considering that Shaq is his best friend on the team and the team is considering trading Amare.

The only way he stays is if Amare stays and the Shaq trade falls through if Wallace or Pavlovic fail their physicals.

You're missing a "will" or "won't" in that sentence and it's killing me :-D

Let Earl Clark back-up Hill for a year and then Peace!

Curious Cavs fan here...what are the chances that Hill is available this off-season and would come to Cleveland to give it one last go with LeBron, Shaq, and Mo instead of retiring.?

Or is he going to either retire/re-join Phoenix?

Just curious..

Last time we heard from him he said he'd retire before he played for another team, and he enrolled his kids for school here, but who knows what that means.

I think that means more to G-Hill than the average professional athlete

I think Hill will go the one more season, then on to coaching/ front office in Phoenix. I think he really like it here.

Yeah, I think whether he plays or does something else, he will stay in the Suns organization. He's a fantastic player and would do well on the coaching staff, or even the broadcasting staff
