Was Grant Hill a Top 5 NBA player?

I wouldnt consider him a top5 player at any point in his career. Maybe only for one year in 99/00. I think he was really overhyped coming out of Duke as the "next" big thing and IMO never lived up to the hype.

26 PPG, 7 RPG, 5 APG on 49% FG, 35% 3FG, and 80% FT.....that is superstar quality. he wasn't overhyped. if his career wouldn't have been hindered by injuries, he woulda lived up to the hype and then some.

In his prime, Grant Hill was the best small forward in the league alongside Scottie Pippen. To me, he was more of a "Magic Johnson" type of player, but yeah - they were comparing him to Michael a lot, saying he's "the next big thing" for the NBA. Shame all the injuries stopped him taking his game to next level... still a top 5 NBA player in the late 90's tho.

If you had your own shoes back in the 90s, you were a superstar, lol.

Lebron is the best player in the league, but until he can get clutch and finish important games none of that shit matters...
