I feel that Boris Diaw should start, and receive much more time than Hill in this upcoming season simply because he is much more productive than Hill. When Diaw gets decent minutes he usually does really well across the board, as seen in games 4 and 5 of last years first round in the playoffs against the Spurs where he got 40+ minutes in both games and got at least 20pts, 8rebs and 8asts. In my opinion, Diaw is one of the most versatile and underrated players in the league.He gives us much more size, as he is a more accomplished post player than Hill is now, while he can also run the point/distribute the ball as well as Hill can. I feel that he can do everything that Hill can do, better... at least at this stage in their careers. Unlike most people, i rekon that he deserves his $9 million dollar contract per year. I just feel that he is currently a wasted opportunity, as we are giving an old veteran like Hill much more time than a potential all-star like Diaw.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of Grant Hill and believe that before his bout of injuries he quite possibly could've been the next MJ, but I just think that Diaw is much better than him at this stage in their careers.
I'd like to hear what everyone's got to say about these players and my opinion on them and where they should start next season.
