    No matter whether the team wins or loses certain fans want to moan about why Adelman didn't play their pet squid enough. "Release the Squid," they will cry. It's annoying. Squid is an end of rotation sub now and hasn't proven he deserves more minutes given his mistakes. He might be decent one day but the team is trying to win games, not serve the interest of squid fans. Squid can tweet all he wants and his fans can moan all the want, but squid has not earned anything yet.

    How do we know if he is not a superstar squid or a bench squid if we never let him display his abilities?

    He's a Kracken jerk! They have 10 arms where as the common squid only has 6.

    The Squids needs to stop pretending that he is The Amish guy.

    Well first thing squid needs to do is move his lower tentacles instead of reaching out with them and fouling. I mean he does have eight you know.

    Because when he does play, he fouls 3pt shooters and takes bad shots.

    Everybody knows watching the limited minutes he played (except you?). You notice a superstar the first time you see one.

    Lets stop with this squid crap and type like normal people.

    Firstly, superstars do things that make up for their mistakes, T-Will just makes mistakes after mistakes. T-Will is not playing to his strengths either, which is funny considering that he was doing just that when he first played for the Rockets in junk time, maybe its Adelman, maybe it is because T-Will is afraid to make mistakes.

    If Williams keeps playing like a selfish shooter he doesn't deserve minutes.

    This is about T-Will? I thought this was about squid.

    His drives to the basket have been as good as turnovers. He doesn't literally turn it over but the end result they weren't the best options.

    I'll admit I wanted squid released to see how well he could swim. Even with all the talent in the ocean, it means nothing if he can't be a part of a school.

    I have no idea what I just said.

    Honestly I don't understand the type of impression youre trying to make by calling him a squid. If he were to read this, do you think he'd feel appreciated as a player? Especially when he's apparently been judged by you enough to post a comparision of him to a freakin squid, with a jpg of it...man that's tough. (and when i say tough, i mean tough in the way T-will has to handle that situation)

    I say, let him get enough playing time so he can drop that emotional and mental anxiety that he's built up while waiting and waiting and waiting to get minutes....to the point where it's my opinion that he cares about it so much, he's actually effected by feeling rejected because frankly...we all know he's capable of good basketball plays and he has to deal with not being able to show it due to the minutes he gets, his own-haphazard play, and the tough playoff situation that we're currently in.
