    Nah... his playing time will come soon enought, were only like 9 days away from the trade deadline... we're going to cut off a lot of dead weight, to make room for the young guys..

    I have a completely unfounded suspicion that Adelman knows exactly what he's got in Williams and doesn't want him to be a sought-after throw-in in an upcoming trade. Keep him with the club, let him learn the system, and let clubs ask for other lesser talents like Buddinger and Hill. I think we'll see a lot more from T-Will after the trade deadline, even if (*shiver*) the roster hasn't changed at all.

    TWill is the rare ballhog who can't shoot. That said, he has talent. Right now this team is too deep. Maybe after the trade deadline.

    I'll do a $20 tipjar bet that he will not be traded.

    Taylor got playtime. Taylor got traded. T-will gets no playtime. T-will won't get traded.

    T-will has already shown that he can dominate the D-league. Putting him out there, will only make other GMs inquire about him, when Morey calls about their centers.

    or he might be traded. even though t-will is not playing, other teams are still familliar of his potential.

    he's too good to go down there, plus he's prone to the idea that D-league = punishment, thanks to avery.

    though, i really think he's going to be part of a trade package before this is all said and done. it's a shame, he's quite a talelnt.

    twill, if you read this, please know that fans here in the H do appreciate your game and wish you the best if and wherever you may go.

    It's unlike Houston trade strategy to keep their current players if they can land better ones...

    What you said could be the case behind the scene, but center position is the one that we really need to fill right now, so even if trading Twill will give us a good center I believe DM will do it...
