Terrence Williams PR Department (AKA STOP TWEETING)

Any chance of moving this to the dish? This is the thread that will not die!!!!

Clutch · Apr 4, 2012

This is the wrong thread for this discussion, in my opinion, since it was really about T-Will's tweets, attitude on Twitter, etc. It's somehow become the all-encompassing Terrence Williams thread. I'll see if I can split this out.

Would anyone disagree that the Houston Rockets franchise is far, far ahead of the Sacramento Kings?

The Rockets are a likely playoff team, run by a numbers wizard from MIT. They make smart, calculated, low-risk moves with potential rewards. The Rockets place a premium on winning and winning now -- they field players who won't hurt them and give them the best chance to win in the present.

The Kings are a lottery team (again) and are run by a guy getting blasted as an idiot, who has made several terrible moves over the past few years. The Kings are wallowing through losing seasons, throwing their young talent out on an NBA court and letting the cream rise.

So line those two teams up in a race to true contender status and the Rockets, with a massive lead to start, should kill the Kings... right?

We are far ahead for sure.

I'm taking a smart GM who makes all the right moves but doesn't tank over one that makes horrible decisions but is able to get the team a high lottery pick every year.

The Kings are arguably the most talented team in the NBA. All that talent compacted into one team, and still one of the worse teams in the NBA.

A good GM makes all the difference.

I disagree. Having multiple skills helps only if any of the skills are excellent. If you have no skill that is better than the other players, you don't get to play. That was the situation with Williams with he Rockets.

He's not a better scorer/shooter than Budinger. He's not a better defender than Lee or Parsons. He's good at passing, but we run our offense with our PGs. Unless you are a LeBron or TMac, team don't run their offense through their wing. So TWill was stuck. Having a bad attitude didn't help either.

Now he's on a bad team. His skills are relatively better there. So he's playing.

Disagree. Better scorer than bud,better defender than lee and better ball handler than parson. The real deal is he's a sg who can do multiple things regardless if he's scoring or not. He saves roster spots while on the floor. He can play the 1,2,and 3. He's more of a 2 than a 3,but his versitility is warranted on a team that has very little.

I don't know and I think that is what you are trying to say, that the Rockets are really not close to being a contender, and neither are the Kings, but the Kings have a lot of those "HIGH" upside guys that DM is always talking about and we don't.
