There have been a lot of rumors around where Hill might play next year. Here is the latest...
"The New York Knicks offered Grant Hill the option of accepting a one-year, $5M deal or a three-year, $10M deal earlier this week. In response to those offers The Arizona Republic reports Suns managing partner Robert Sarver, general manager Steve Kerr and coach Alvin Gentry traveled to Orlando to meet with Hill on Wednesday night and Thursday morning. The newspaper also reports Steve Nash called Hill to help in the recruiting process. The Suns, according to The New York Times, initially asked Hill to take the veterans' minimum of $1.2M, but later increased it to $2M, then bumped it to $3M after the Knicks made their offer (ESPN)."
Money wise the Celtics have no shot. They can only offer just under $2 million. You would think if the Suns can give him a 2 year deal worth about $6 million then he would chose the Suns over the Knicks. I said it before and I'll say it again....we will really see what Hill's focus is on. Money or Championships? The Celtics give him the best chance by far to get a ring. The Suns are a decent team, but they aren't going to win it, and the Knicks just suck. So, if the Celtics really want him they should get that Pierce, KG, Allen, Doc, and Ainge jet ready...
A decision is expected sometime over the next 2 weeks.
