Grant Hill and Tracy McGrady talk what could have been on Magic with Tim Duncan | The Jump | ESPN

The more T Mac finds out about the situation the more it breaks his heart I feel for em man it just wasn't that fair back in the day at least he's not the only one.

[@elhajjmalikel6266]

Right?! I feel it especially because I'm an Orlando native. I remember back in the early 2000's in middle school everyone had a #1 Tracy McGrady Orlando Magic jersey. I really feel for him because he wanted to be here because he grew up a little over an hour from here. T-Mac just had an unfortunate twist of fate, smh.

[@BigMy28]

Kobe would have more finals MVP's because Duncan would have challenged Shaq. Lakers possibly stay together to challenge T-mac and Duncan. Lakers possibly same amount of rings 5 or 6, but more finals losses. LeBron different start to his career possibly same ending because age is still a factor, but it's fun to think about.

Imagine it though. If Duncan did sign with the Magic, Grant may not have been injured because the plays would have been different, Duncan would have gotten the ball at times and it would have changed whole game. One little thing derailed a franchise. Orlando was one of my favorite teams back then. I grew up a Charlotte Hornets fan but when they moved I hated them. And I could never get behind the Bobcats. So Orlando was probably my favorite then. Use to love seeing the penny and Shaq connection there too. So much history. Also I always wonder with if TMac stayed with the Raptors. They had Billups, Carter, McGrady. If Billups would havd came into his own the same way, and Carter and T Mac could be like a one two punch like LeBron and Wade were, they could have been a multiple time finals team.

[@Lexyboogie]

A lot of great players in NBA history just lucked out in a lot of ways with the teams they were drafted or traded to, and those teams' ability to recruit great players to surround them. That's the reason why a lot of top 10 all time lists consist of mostly Lakers and Celtics players. T Mac could have had multiple rings and been regarded a top 5 all time player if he had just a little more luck in situations like this. Can't forget his bad luck with his health too. People forget how incredibly amazing he was in his prime. He's so hurt in this video.

[@minhphuoc22]

there was a time t-mac and Timmy and Kobe were fight for the no1 player in the league :(

[@mashwork6615]

Exactly situations really is what define your career. Especially if you’re drafted to the expansion teams. No doubt Tracy Mcgrady was a Tier 1 basketballer in his time like KG, Duncan, Kobe, iverson, Shaq, Dirk. 2 scoring titles in Orlando? He would be averaging 37 right now easy because he has the ability to pull up off the dribble 3’s.

[@Lexyboogie]

Every Monday Yup, that's why I never had a problem with LeBron leaving Cleveland in 2010. As a player, you gotta take control of your own destiny if your organization isn't putting you in good situations. This business of staying loyal to a team just because they drafted you is nonsense.

Darryl Shaw That's interesting you say that because I feel like McGrady was KD before KD. And those 2 would have been great to see what could have been if injuries didn't derail both of their careers. To make it even worse they could have been paired with a young Tim Duncan so they wouldn't have had to exert so much energy which in the end caused their injuries. I don't care what anyone says but T-Mac is still one of my favorite players ever.

[@jackschwartz1756]

Hill was the player with the most upside after Jordan retired the second time in 98. He was supposed to take over the league, he was like a better version of Ben Simmons when fully healthy. (Ben could prove me wrong if he continues developing the right way) but Hill woulda been a monster if not for the injuries. He still had a decent career however.

[@brettwright1640]

i think they would have come out of the east every year from 2000-2003. i am not sure about titles though. there was this beast known as shaq and kobe in the west. maybe in 2003 they would have beat the spurs. i do not know how they would have done against that behemoth known as the 2004 pistons though. would have been sweet to watch none the less

He really was. He was incredible at Duke too. Held back to play a role when Laettner & Hurley were there. When G Hill took them to the 94 championship game, he literally took them there himself, on his shoulders with no help. In all honesty, I'm a Mavs fan who watched every Mavs game at the time, Kidd didn't deserve to split that co-rookie of the year. Hill was just better. He was like if you combined LeBron & Kobe into the same player.

[@darealliljable]

[@kclim]

It's good to see Hill and T-Mac being able to share a light-hearted moment like this, and in have great careers after basketball. Yes, they had the fame and made a lot of money back in their day and probably still now but it's all about living life to your potential, and you wonder what sort of effect injuries and not winning a championship had on these two. It's corny to say, but if you can't be a winner without a championship, you'll never be a winner even with one (or several) - and these two are winners.
