    "When the SB Nation NBA braintrust settled on doing a themed post about the most disappointing players in each team's history, I was less than thrilled with the assignment. For the Orlando Magic, there's only one answer: Grant Hill. And yet terming him a disappointment isn't entirely fair, for myriad reasons.

    With a flurry of roster moves, Magic GM John Gabriel managed to create enough salary-cap space in the summer of 2000 to sign two max-level free agents. He landed Hill and Tracy McGrady, and had Tim Duncan not lost a game of one-on-one against San Antonio Spurs teammate David Robinson, might have nabbed him instead of one of the wing stars."

    I don't know if I would go as far to say all that. At least he has done great things for the league and wasn't a total disappointment. Or a disappointment at all to me.
