[ClutchFans] The fascinating trade for Terrence Williams

Look... you obviously have an issue with people you have pre-determined to have a genuine attitude problem and will not change your mind regardless. I am willing to see how guys act before I try to seriously label them as something. The guy says he learned his lesson and considering he never had issues in college under a strict coach, I am inclined to believe him. Avery Johnson on the other hand, has clashed with players at Dallas, criticized Brooks Lopez (arguably his best player), and set a dangerous precedent for players to be sent to the D-League as punishment instead of helping them. Williams's issue should have been handled internally.

 

You are reading too much into it, I have nothing against TWill, I can't wait to see him do his thing, and hope he can help us.

I am a bit worried about his shooting, but not his attitude...it was a low risk possible high return move.

My LOL comment was directed at Avery being heavily criticized and how the Dleague is not for punishment, yet it has been used by some teams for exactly that reason.

No big deal....let's get him here and see what he can do.

Sorry for misinterpreting your words then. Teams may have done it as an underlying reason, but typically it's to try to get them going. What Johnson did was highly publicized and not hidden at all and only solidifies the idea that the D-League is a punitive center.

Hopefully this is not a problem for him and he can get some more professional advice here in Houston...and judging by the pics there, H-town strip clubs are much better.

If T-Won't has a high basketball IQ, then he should know that his FT%, turnover ratio, and lack of an outside shot are unacceptable. Highlights ain't gonna win you games.

I hope I am wrong, but I see T-Won't as another James White...just lots of highlights on Youtube.

 

Wow, i guess with new players comes new haters. I remember when the Rox got Kmart there was someone around here calling him K-Brick.

 

Yeah.. his asst, reb, pt numbers are that of a James White...

 

Too many soft choir boys on this team. Decent trade that may work out.

 

What is this thing with the word "hater"??? I mean, can we discuss the facts and have some fun with nicknames....I gave you the facts why he is gonna be T-Won't instead of T-Will. I also said I hope I am wrong. Where's the hate???

You guys are propping him up as the next superstar T-Will == TMac. I am just saying he ain't no TMac or anywhere close to be a superstar like the ol' TMac.

Grow up...how about debating the facts instead of acting like a little kid throwing a fit when Daddy or Mommy said "NO"!!!

 

You're statements could not be more wrong.

- Lowry doesn't have an outside shot and he helps us win games
- Shaq is horrible with TO's, FT's, and has no ranged shot whatsoever and he won a few rings. I bet Yao who does almost all those well would love a couple of those rings. Same with Stockton.
- Dwight is even worse off offensively than Shaq and he looks pretty successful.
- Lee had a miserable stat line with the Nets as well, but he is doing pretty well on our team now.

God... I can go on and on and on with this. The guy did great in college and never had an issue until he went on the Nets and was coached by Avery Johnson. Did it never occur to you that Johnson is a bad coach and the Nets are just a bad team?

 

Superstars get past the first round. T-Mac was just a player with amazing gifts talking himself into a superstar.

 

What's wrong with calling him K-Brick. I don't think it's hate...it more like meeting expectation for someone who is making $10mil+ per year.

I don't think this K-Brick stat is uncommon...

jordan played alot of small forward his rookie year and did pretty damned good so....

 

I don't get why the knicks would even pick up the phone when they see Morey's number on their caller id. He just keeps jacking with them--almost like he enjoys toying w them. lol

 

Terrence Williams obviously has maturity issues but he has also shown that he's willing to work on his game.

Pre-draft, Gary Payton took Terrence "under his wings", Williams moved in to live with Payton in his Las Vegas home, they worked on his game and Payton believes that he can be a defensive player of the league type player.

Hopefully the change of scenery will flip the switch.

 

yeah...Rockets and Morey are so dumb for paying an ordinary player, like TMac, $20mil/year.
