Penny Hardaway was a similarly gifted player at the time who also got hit hard by injuries.
the problem hill has with the suns is he can't hit the 3. that's a big part of their game. he continues to chuck em up, but he's never been able to nail them on a consistent enough basis. he still has game in other areas though which is probably a blessing to the suns. but i can't help but think sometime down the road in the playoffs he is going to be called on to be able to hit that open 3, and he won't be able to do it.
