In 96 he got more votes than Jordan for the All-star :wow:

It was just recently that I understood how much of a fan favorite he was

This nikka Grant first step was absolutely ELITE! He would have so many nikkas cooked instantly off that first move. And his last year in Detroit when he was automatic with the middy and stretching his range out to the 3... It was looking scary:wow:
Said the same thing in another thread in regard to G.

Yo Imagine had he stayed and stayed healthy and Houston stayed and stayed healthy:whoo:. Cats forget Houston really polished his around game before going to NY, upgraded those handles/was getting to the rack and distributing the rock as well. He was the guy we all think Cade needs right now, better than that even

I know the Grant trade helped facilitate the 04 run BUT still had the previous scenario worked out, I think we still get there on just a different path. Having potentially the best SF and SG in the L ( i don't give a fukk about saying that, breh was giving Kobe 50 pieces/could not be stopped when healthy), and with both maturing/advancing their game like they were until demise, shiiit.

Orlando Magic jinxed Grant Hill's career by not properly taking care of the injuries.

Duncan should be happy as hell he never went to play in Orlando or he'd probably have an injury ridden career as well. Every franchise player in Orlando had injuries. Shaq was on that trajectory as well but he left Orlando in time.

:myman:You see/saw the vision. They had the potential to be the perfect wing combo in the league. :lolbron:Ain't no way in hell Houston was gonna be the best SG in the league, but he was the perfect guard to play alongside Grant. Both some smooth ass looking games too. shyt would have been beautiful to watch and effective. But fukk EM:yeshrug: nikkas bailed on us, we got a chip, and they got nothing but a wad of cash for their efforts at the end of the day. "Those who stay will be champions"
