    The squid blows chunks. Wasted draft pick. Morey had a bad call on this one. I guess you can't hit them all.

    Looks like the TMac hate is rubbing off on TWill. Poor kid never had a chance to be liked. If only he had a different first name and chose a number like 15 then maybe no one would of cared.

    and when he got time, he laid a HUGE egg

    dont give me that crap, you want to play, you prepare yourself and be ready to make an impact on the court when you get on it.

    He has yet to show us any of this supposed "talent" you and others like you here keep talking about. So far, his only talent I see is a talent for sucking.:mad:

    Honestly, what do you expect him to get accomplished in six minutes. If he jacks up 3 or 4 shots people will complain that he shoots too much, if he turns the ball over (which he did once, I believe) he will get ripped for being careless, and if he doesn't shoot and is passive with the ball, then people will say he doesn't do anything... It seems to be a lose-lose for Williams because he will not get enough minutes to show what he can (or can't) do.

    You're right. To Tracy's credit he only did that the last year he was here. TWill has too much to prove to pull that. Unless he just simply doesn't care.

    This guy T-Will is the perfect example of an athlete that should feel lucky that he even made it to the NBA. What has he been learning in practice from the veterans? Nothing obviously. He is just like Shane Battier offensively without the 3 point shot and the occassional hook shot. Defensively he just sucks but then he's athletic and wants to dribble. Go play at the YMCA you bum!

    Patterson's minutes went to Jordan Hill early on, you didn't see any of this. Not one time.

    Guy's a scrub, you all need to realize this and move on.

    Rockets need to talk to this guy (more?) Call Murph, Lucas, a 5th grader, whoever....he's got the physical tools to be a solid player...they need to get that out of him or at least build him up where he can have more trade value.

    Talent or not.... The two plays that got me the most was: 1) As soon as he came in, he got lost in the offensive set. Dragic had to point him to the middle so he could get him the ball. 2) The defensive play where he just stood under the basket the entire time. I know it's a blowout, but someone else came flying by to alter the shot and he was just down there watching the offensive rebound and putback. I'm not even asking for him to foul him or contest the shot, but he made no attempt to get in any position.

    Unfortunately, he looks like one of those players who just don't get it. A player has to earn his playing time, nothing is going to be given to him.

    the rockets gave up a low draft pick for the guy. It was worth the risk.

    It is because we have such a high hope for him. Obviously the bubbles are bursting and fast.
