Uggh.that guy is dead and done. You can't get much more overrated that guy.
Most of his "ability" stems from playing on a team with Jordan and Pippen.

If we are losing Battie we need a shot blocker..and he does not fill the 
bill. I saw Derek Strong play in a NBDL game...he looks much better then 
Grant, if we are desperate for the washed up veteran guy. He is a couple of 
years younger and was always a better player IMHO. Plus right now he is in 
much better shape.

Also Doc Rivers would disagree on the "unselfish" bit.
