Jason Williams is a pure Point Guard with great skills. He is a more than capable shooter, 35% from the 3 point line this year. He is an outstanding passer with a good turnover/assists ratio. Can get injuried often. This season, he made 8.8 PPG on a NBDL level team. The guy can really shoot and IMO, he's on Calderon's level (btw, he's really overrated) and he already won the cup. He made 8 millions this season, I think it will decrease by 2 or 3 millions. Should the Rockets go for him?
The unlikely possibility of Francis making a significant comeback interests me much more than signing somebody like White Chocolate would.
Bullcrap. Jason Williams ain't on the NBDL if he is making 8 million a year. Only rookies and 2nd year players and free agents can go to the NBDl.
He is a downgrade from Rafer. I would take him as a backup to Rafer (unless Brooks improves over the summer which is likely) but not for more than $3 million. No more old legs with a streaky jumper unless it is cheap. Let's keep the youth movement going on this team.
Thank you. Well, he's got a good point about the Heat being an NBDL level team. I can't argue with that.
if he's bought out (unlikely) then i'd be interested in him as a backup to rafer. no way could the rockets trade for an $8M expiring contract w/o giving up something good.
He IS Rafer Alston. We need someone off the bench who can do whatever Alston can't do. I.E. efficient scoring and defense. Someone like a young Bobby Jackson. I have high hopes for Aaron Brooks personally.
I dont know whats dumber, you thinking J-Will will command 6Mill annually, or thinking hes actually on Calderon's level (By the way hes really underrated)
