Grant Hill has been real solid this year. It's crazy because he's like 37 years old, but he hasn't played near that many games because of all those injuries he had. His rebounding has been amazing (8 a game). Nash has looked great thus far too, and they've got the lane cleared with Frye at the 5, and he's been popping threes like crazy. But, like you said, Amare isn't the same, and I don't think their defense and rebounding is good enough to get higher than the 5 seed.
