The Goods Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Grant Hill spent the day with the Knicks and said he is "very serious" about the possibility of signing with the team. "I've always been a fan of the Knicks and the city," Hill said. "Obviously, they've gone through a lot the last few years, but I'm a big fan of Donnie Walsh and Mike D'Antoni, so I'm definitely interested. I'm just taking it all in." D'Antoni spoke about what Hill may be able to bring to the Knicks. "Yes, he's going to be 37 and you don't know when he's going to hit the wall, but he hasn't hit the wall yet," D'Antoni said. "If he was 25, we couldn't get him anyway." http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/60380/20090706/grant_hill_very_serious_about_joining_knicks/ Cmon Knicks, sign him and keep him away from the C's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JYD Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 I've always really liked Grant Hill - Not sure why, always one of my favorite players. Maybe it's just the fact he's a good character guy who goes out and competes hard, doesn't run his mouth and always try to be in the spotlight. Would be thrilled if he joined us, but like Kidd, I don't expect it to go down, so as of now, don't particularly care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWaLL Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 I'd much rather see Hill on the Knicks than the Celtics. I think he'll have more playing opportunities in New York. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check my Stats Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 What a shame, he'd be insane to pass up on Boston. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sun Tzu Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 This is pretty much between the Celtics and Knicks now, there aren't that many other teams interested in Hill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldChili Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 At that age why wouldn't he go to a team with at least some chance of winning a championship? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JYD Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 At that age why wouldn't he go to a team with at least some chance of winning a championship?i agree but he may be concerned with playing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Goods Posted July 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Looks like his wife is the one making the decision Grant Hill's wife Tamia, a recording artist, appears to be in favor of her husband joining the Knicks. Her career may benefit from being in New York City. "The Knicks aren't ready to win yet, but they have things that no one else can offer him. And that's going to mean a lot," said a source close to the negotiations. Hill is said to be leaning toward signing with the Knicks but no agreement has been reached. http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/60461/20090709/source_grant_hills_wife_nudging_him_to_new_york/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Next Knick Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 This idea, once again, was shot down as he returns to Phoenix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren2ThaG Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Maybe he'll get traded to you guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Next Knick Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Maybe he'll get traded to you guys?I don't see anyone that's worth giving up for him...or anyone they'll take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse The Body Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 What why would Lakers be scared of Celtics? It should be the other way around, Ron Artest is way better then Rasheed Wallace, he is even better then Ray Allen in my opinion. But anyways this would be a great sign for us.
