    I liked this write up:

    Rookie Jay Williams still has the potential to turn into a great NBA player. But his constant complaining about the NBA, the triangle offense, and the pressures he faces are wearing thin. You haven't heard a peep out of Yao Ming about his struggle to adjust, the fact that his teammates don't always pass him the ball or the intense media scrutiny he's under. But Williams appears to be obsessed with it. He returned to Duke on Wednesday to have his number retired. But he spent at least some of that time making excuses for his first-half failures to Sun Times columnist Jay Mariotti."

    jwill thinks he is supposed to be the superstar from the start, dominate like he used to be in college and have the offense goes around him. wake up! you are no longer playing for the dukies. you don't have the shooting, quickness, the skills to be a superstar. so shut up and collect your money like kenny andersen.

    But isn't it refreshing to have a no-excuse guy in our locker room instead of a potewntially cancerous one like in ShyTown?

    Steve and Cat make up for Jwill's annoying excuses. After each game lately they’ve been running their mouths way too much. They should take a number from Yao's book and just shut up and play.

    I still think that he will be a solid player. Don't count him out.

    You mean like after our loss to the Cavs and Mobley was running his mouth about how the Rockets needed to mature as a team? :)

    Or how after games and when he was in the TNT studio a few weeks ago Francis was running his mouth about how they needed to get Ming the ball more, and have actually been doing it lately?
