As a Pistons fans, I celebrated when we drafted him. Injuries killed him, but before the injuries, his ability to handle the ball and get to the basket was incredible. Smart player, high IQ, such a shame about his ankle.

@gladlawson61 Год назад

Bro f the injuries.

@Knight_Raider_ Год назад

G. Hill was a beast.. early on and had some very iconic shoes

@MrDarkweaver Год назад

@@gladlawson61 The two players at the time that were poised to be huge stars were Grant Hill and Penny Hardaway. Injuries killed both their careers, to the point where neither were the player they could be, perhaps should have been. People forget just how good Grant Hill was back in the day, especially during his time in snowy Detroit. He could have been an all-time great, but sadly he never made it back to the highest of play after his injury after he moved to Orlando.

@smokescreenOG Год назад

as a pistons fan, fuck grant hill. he bolted at the first real opportunity and we got better.

@Lymbe06 Год назад

I don’t usually do the “kids today” bit but here goes. Kids today don’t understand that dunking was more spectacular those days, not because players jumped higher but because it meant the guy went through a defense that was setup so you couldn’t score those kind of baskets. The 3 was an afterthought almost, people were going for the midrange or the transition game or really just look for the big guy. Players like Grant Hill that went to the basket at will were really something special.

@nathanlawson313 Год назад

Yep. Went from best thing you can do is "dunk in yo face" to cross em up and hit the J. It all changed when Iverson stepped over Lue.

@blancamartinez5473 Год назад

used to seeing the friction 4 players pass or give it to the twin towers let them work

@FACTZ973 Год назад

Players back in the day were alot more physical. These twigs today would get snapped easily. These boys don't even crash the boards for rebounds or play defense. For this reason is why subpar players like P.J Tucker, statistically, is still in the league. To his credit, he at least gives effort on the court and could've easily played in the '90s. Guys like him and Jae Crowder will easily get a roster spot somewhere. I will say however that the 3-pter allows today's players to rack up more career points faster than the average players of the past.

@GeronimoPlaz Год назад

@TheRucker Год назад

First of all, I am a Knick. Grant Hill was so good early in his career that I became a fan of his (even Jordan couldn't do that). I'm sure if Grant hadn't gotten such a bad injury, he would be a top 5 player.

@ContextReallyMatters Год назад

Grant was nice. He was fearless. It didn't matter who was in front of him. He was taking it to them. As a Heat fan, I still remember him slamming Alonzo Mourning on the ground and then dunking on him a few plays later. #Savage. He had one of the sweetest crossovers too. He might have been known as a nice guy but on the court, he was a Bad Boy.

@DanoFSmith-yc9tg Год назад

He was basically Kobe before Kobe, with maybe a hint of Vince Carter mixed in his game, one of the biggest health related “what ifs”, along with D Rose.

@carmelotansengco4605 Год назад

Remember all those talks about the 'heir apparent'? Grant Hill and Penny Hardaway were the two guys most talked about at the time. Grant Hill was a sensational player. It was just unfortunate that he got injured very early on in his career.

@nunyabusiness7927 Год назад

Grant hill had unlimited potential in the NBA. It's a shame he was injured most of the time. I respect him for never giving up. He could have just taken the money and quit, but he kept coming back because he loved the game.

@ishetrying Год назад

One of the greats. His ten year run, Duke and Detroit, was amazing and a joy to watch. There was nothing he couldn't do and do at a high level. He had a rare combination of grace, power, and basketball IQ.

Man the 1990's NBA had so much fun game. So much swag and flow. NBA Jam, early 90's hip hop. Starter Jackets. The jerseys like the Orlando Magic, Raptors , Pistons. The colors and styles. The Penny Hardaway sneakers. The basketball cards like Topps Stadium and Upper Deck. NBA Hoops. The old weekend show NBA Inside Stuff and the best times ever with the NBA on NBC and the theme song. I'm not saying the 90's is the best decade in NBA history. I would argue the 80's may have that but the 90's wow. What an era. Was tough, had flash. Had big men playing Center. Hakeem, Shaq, Robinson, Ewing, Mourning, Dikembe. Even the videogames were fun. NBA Live 95, NBA Live 96, NBA Jam, NBA Showtime. Just fun era. Larry Johnson Grandma Ma commercials. The Be Like Mike ones. Lil Penny, even college basketball in the 90/s The 1990 UNLV Runnin Rebels, Michigans Fab 5, UNC, Duke. The 1992 , 94 and 96 dream team. Reggie Miller scoring 8 points in 6 seconds on my Knicks. So much. Then you had the young era of Tim Duncan, Kobe, Allen Iverson that came along. Grant Hill, Penny, Webber, Shaq geez.

As a Lakers fan, I remember that game winning shot. It was one of the best shots that I seen up to that point of my life. His form was flawless and the shot looked easy for him. Hill was an offensive machine who nobody could stop and only the best could keep up with. He was the face of the "In your face" era of the NBA. To me Kobe was everything that Hill should have been.

@MrDarkweaver Год назад

Thing about Isiah was whilst he is one of the greatest PGs ever, he wasn't really liked around the league, and unless you were a Pistons fan, all the other fans hated the Bad Boy Pistons. Isiah is an all-time great player, but he wasn't a cultural superstar like Grant Hill. Everyone loved Grant, he was a clean-cut kid from Duke, who'd won with his college team, his parents were well known and respected in their different fields. Grant also had an electric game that got the fans out of their seats, not just in Detroit, but around the league. Plus he always came across as a nice guy off the court, which endeared him to everyone, whereas Isiah could be prickly with the press when he was upset or mad. Grant has numerous commerical deals with big Sponsors, he was the face of Sprite in the early 90s, he had his own shoe which was really fly. Isiah for his career is obviously a greater player than Grant, no question at all. But Grant was a far greater "star", both in the league and with the fans than Isiah ever was.
