107562, if he's gonna be the Suns' GM, he's obviously gonna retire as a player Posted by Bombastic, Tue May-07-13 01:37 PM
I mean he didn't even crack the playoff rotation for the Clippers when they were running Turiaf/Hollins out there for 25 minutes a night & starting Googley-Eye-Butler.
He knows that part of his life is probably finally over but he's a smart dude who undoubtedly learned some things over the course of his decorated college/international careers along with his two full decades in the NBA which featured about six or seven years of being forced to mostly watch due to injury in the middle of it.
He's basically going to be the same age Steve Kerr was (41) when the Suns pulled him out of his brief post-retirement broadcasting career to take over as their GM back in the mid-to-late-aughts.
Same with John Paxson after Krause left & he came down from the booth.
We could easily start a pretty long list of people less qualified going into this gig than Grant Hill over the years.
