With the recent retirement of Grant Hill it got me thinking, how good would he have been if he didn't suffer all of those injuries during his prime? Hill was co-rookie of the year with Jason Kidd in 94-95 and had 6 elite seasons with the Detroit Pistons before the injuries started and he signed with Orlando. Hill was the first in a long line of up and coming players to be labeled "The Next Jordan." Who knows what would have happened had he stayed healthy in his prime, especially with the emergence of Tracy McGrady in Orlando.
Other players like Hill include the likes of McGrady, Bo Jackson, Terrell Davis, Sterling Sharpe, etc.. So what are your thoughts on these players and how good they could have been? And which of these players do you think would have been the best in their respective sport(s) without the injuries? Feel free to add other names, I was just listing a few off the top of my head.
