Grant hill in his prime was better than Mcgrady?
ooohh, I dunno about that....
I take Hill. Better mentally if nothing else. More fundamentals, more of a leader. I'm not sure Tmac is a top 5 player where Hill easily was.
Hill would destroy McGrady in anything but a one on one game. McGrady is a prima donna baby who doesn't know how to win.
That said, expecting Hill to ever play: A) a full season or B) at even 75% of his old self is just dreaming at this point. He's been away SO LONG, it's really not fair to him to expect him to be back.
If he does SOMEHOW play, I could see the Magic being the 6th seed. Other than that, we shall see, they might be an 8 seed. But Stevie Franchise has to grow up a lot first.
Also, I agree with the idea that Howard will be a beast on D, but he needs time before he'll AVERAGE those numbers. He'll put them up once in a while, as well as a few stinkers. He is a rook and sometimes he'll run into a Ben Wallace or Jermaine O'neal and be overwhelmed and in serious foul trouble. Give him time...
