    What is the latest news on grant hill? Is he expected to be ready to go this year? How is he going to be able to help our team?

    He is expecting to return this season.
    If he gets injured again, he won't be back.
    He may play at 1, 2, 3, and sould be able to lead the team...

    He was expected to play point but the magic got Jameer Nelson. So that will probaly not going to happen. He will hopefully start at SF.

    If the Orlando-Houston trade goes down, that is most likely.

    Hill would come of the bench then...

    Grant Hill was on ESPN and reported that Tracy will be traded to Houston and that change might be good for both teams

    are you kidding? hill is a scoring veteran at sf and needs to start. gooden could still play pf, and either play howard at c or rotate him in. until hill is traded or injured, howard shouldnt start at sf, or maybe start at all. it will be harder for a big man to dominate out of high school.

    I'd definetely start Howard.
    Maybe if Mobley struggles, Hill should start.
    Keep in mind, Grant is coming of an injury and should take it easy, at least until he is 110% healthy...

    i hope he comes back healthy, he got injured diving for a loose ball with the pistons against miami and that's where it all started. howard or kato, hill, nelson, francis, and mobley. not bad...

    Grant Hill should only get 15-20 mins a game at the start of the season. Dwight should be the starter. He is the player that we will build our franchise around, considering we drafted him 1st overall. Ideal starting lineup for me.

    C-Cato
    PF-Gooden
    SF-Dwight
    SG-Mobley/Hill/Stevenson
    PG-Franchise

    With Mobley, Hill, Stevenson, Garrity, Jameer, Declerq all on the bench.

    I don't believe Francis will stay in Orlando if he gets traded there. He's going to want out and they'll likely trade him for someone at least as good as him. But, I don't really see Francis playing there because he doesn't want to and I don't think it's fair to coach or management to keep someone around who doesn't even want to be there.

    Grant Hill... what a disappointment, if he gets injured again this season, which he most likely will, he should just retire right there, there's no next time.

    Grant Hill should start this season if he comes back this season healthy and ready to go or not. If he's healthy give him big minutes if not give him small minutes but I still think he should start.
