The Goods Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 As the free-agency contact period opens Tuesday, the Suns will not have the spending capability that Detroit wields or the lure of a title contender that attracts more talent with less money. What the Suns have is their top target, Grant Hill, putting them atop his list, and the hope that they can land a veteran big man such as Antonio McDyess or Joe Smith.

Owner Real Deal Posted June 30, 2009 Owner Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 That's because Hill still plays defense and can ball, as long as the Suns' training staff is keeping him healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Goods Posted June 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 Kerr Expects To Meet With Hill Suns general manager Steve Kerr expects to meet with free-agent forward Grant Hill on Wednesday. "I look forward to talking to Steve and getting a feel for things and what's going on with my role," Hill told the Arizona Republic. "I sure would like to stay. It's been like home. We've enjoyed being there." Hill played for just $1.83 million and $1.97 million in each of the last two seasons, as Phoenix used their biennial exception on the forward. The Suns cannot use the exception on Hill again, so part of their midlevel exception might have to be used if they retain him. http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/60208/20090630/kerr_expects_to_meet_with_hill/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNextBestThing Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 I truly hope he stays. Phoenix has proven to be the home of the best trainers in the league, so I expect Hill to be at least solid until he retires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
