Surfing the web at lunch, I stumbled upon an article by josh q. public titled Grant Hill: Iron Man?. It was Grant Hill’s 75th game of the season last night and it means he has played in all of the Phoenix Suns games this season. But here’s what struck me the most…
He was NBA Rookie the Year. He made All-Star team after All Star team. All-NBA first team. Led the NBA in triple-doubles. Twice. Get the papers, get the papers. First player since Larry Legend to average 20 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists in a season. Nobody’s done it since. Nobody. Joined the Stilt and Elgin Baylor as the only players in NBA history to lead their teams in scoring, rebounding and assists more than once.
I had forgotten how dominant a player Grant Hill was in the beginning of his career with the Detroit Pistons, luckily this video helped me remember!
I remember some of those plays, wow!
