by Tim PovtakFiled under: SunsGrant Hill today is like that low-mileage, late-model used car you bought from the little old lady, who parked it in her garage for 10 years and hardly drove, selling it in surprising good condition for as old as it was. He is a bargain at this age. "For an old guy, I'm still low mileage,'' Hill told FanHouse last week. "Limited wear and tear.''

Filed under: Suns, NBA Preseason, NBA PreviewsFanHouse previews all 30 NBA teams in advance of the 2009-10 season. The 2009-10 Phoenix Suns are caught somewhere between the past and the future. But just because they don't know where they're going, and have one foot stuck in a place where they've already been, doesn't mean that the team can't win this season, while playing an entertaining style of basketball along the way.
