    ALL ABOARD!


    Love him or hate him?
    Future All Star, journey man or bust?
    Free T-Will or lock him up?
    Kraken or Squid?


    No one polarizes opinions on this thread more than Terrence T-Will Williams, a player who has all the physical tools and talent too be an All Star but apparently has a bad attitude and
    no inclination to play in Rick Adelman's motion offence.

    What could be the problem?
    What could he become, if he gets a check up from the neck up?

    Maybe his dominance of the D league inflated his opinion of himself, or our opinion of him.
    Maybe our expectations were a little high for a second year player... lottery pick or not.

    Here's hoping that he can get focused, play his butt off when he gets the minutes and fulfil his potential.

    Same type of player that Iguodala. He can be allstar, but he need focus and work hard.

    Where is the work and IQ that goes with the talent?
    Could be an allstar and out of the league even.

    I'm rooting for the options at the top but chances are he'll end up in one of the situations on the bottom.

    Brian Cook? How long do you think Twill can sit on the bench and still be a great teammate?

    Out of the league in a few years, broke and full of problems. Will probably play in the Philippines.

    I refuse to vote since there is no YMCA bench warmer.

    so he got in to play last night.

    committed TO in first minute. then ran 2 plays and produced 2 bad shots for his teammates.

    i think he goes to Hall of Shame soon.

    Terrance Williams eventually will be an above average player for some team, possibly even the Rockets. However, he was, and is, an untimely acquisition because he has no place to play. We have two excellent PGs, two excellent SGs, and he is not a SF to help Bud with those duties.

    Williams just doesn't fit and consequently must feel like excess baggage. That hurts any player's psyche and his resulting performance. The best that can happen for the Rockets and for Williams is a trade to a team that needs him while netting us a draft pick or player we actually need.

    Whoa, whoa. One PG who is having an excellent season (Lowry) and one excellent offensive SG (Martin), with a good defensive SG (Lee.) Dragic has been okay since he's been here, and we love his hustle, but he was nearly playing himself out of the NBA while in Phoenix this year.

    He was on a team that needed him...A team that would've maximized his so-called talents...Only way he even shows the "potential/upside":mad: that Rockets fans think he has, is for him to go to a lottery bound team year to year..He would do great playing for the Clippers,Kings, or Wizards...Good or even average teams dont need him because he isnt someone to make the team better......

    Admittedly, I was a big fan of Dragic before Morey acquired him. Earlier this year he cut his foot and, like Brooks and his bum ankle, was trying to play through the injury. When Lowry leaves, there will be no dropoff in the attack with Goran at the helm. That is my prediction -- but the proof of the pudding is always in the eating.

    I agree, they're the same height and almost the same body type

    Williams is still in his hot dog mentality phase without the hot dog performance level. When he finally has a reality check and gets down to work, he will be an above average player. How long that takes will determine when he has that break-out epiphany. Sooner would be better.

    I thought the D-League was his reality check..He needs something lower than that?... Send him to China for a year and let him kick it with Marbury..That should do it!!!
