I pretty much agree with you about the praying mantus. If Dallas could find someone better he is gone. And yes I loved it when Walt smaked that tall skinny ass whinny brat! ------------------
Walt worse in the NBA? And Langhi,Collier, and Bullard impress you more? ------------------ President of the Steve Francis, Jamal Crawford,Larry Hughes, and Charles Woodson fan club.
How could we forget Greg Ostertag? Or what about Jim McIlvane? Travis Knight? Walt is way too streaky, but he's not THAT bad. ------------------ "Any answer that can't be questioned is no answer at all. It's gibberish. It's the jabbering of startled monkeys flinging dung at the moon" -- Scott Christensen -- www.ewav.com
Walt is just doing what he has done throughout his career, being inconsistent. When he's on, he's really on, but more often than not, he's off. He sounds like a light switch. Maybe, if we hard wired him to the own position, he'd be more consistent. Fortunately, Rudy has finally started seeing it & relegated him to the bench. Go Shandon! ------------------
My vote as of now goes for Ostertag, because I can't think of anyone else. ------------------ "Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all time thing. You don't win once in a while, you don't do things right once in a while, you do them right all the time. Winning is habit. Unfortunately, so is losing." - Vince Lombardi
Was waiting on that from LilFrancis- knew it had to be coming. Right now all 3 of those are contributing more than Walt, and Collier and Langhi I think have much brighter futures here. Much. ------------------ President of the Jason Collier and Mo Taylor fan club! Draftsource.net ClutchTown.com
Hey "JC" Jason Collier actually produced once he got time. But the knee injury set him back. He'll be producing within a few weeks. Bullard isn't asked to play the role that Walt does, Walt is a starter and asked to be an offensive threat, Bull is just brought in for some sharp shooting and he does his job well. Dan Langhi is a freaking rookie, why are people on him, because he's white? When he does play he looks REAL good, I would play him more then Walt right now. Langhi will be a good player in a year or so, and once he bulks up more. ------------------ "I have a scale at home and it only goes up so far, I love that scale!" - Charles Barkley TNT Studios
Now Cat be serious. How is Langhi doing better than Walt if he can't get in the game And how is Jason Collier helping us out more than Walt? His 3 fouls in 6min were very impressive against VLADE DIVAC. ------------------ President of the Steve Francis, Jamal Crawford,Larry Hughes, and Charles Woodson fan club.
I'd rather have Langhi than Walt. Though Langhi aint gettin much minutes, Rudy has praised Langhi a whole lot. He doesn't wanna mess with the rotation too much right now. ------------------ When 1 door closes another 1 open; but we so often look so long & so regretfully on da closed door, that we dont see the ones that be opening for us - alaskanSnowman

Please post your opinions on this subject. If you can think of anyone who actually is worse than Walt (who gets significant playing time) please mention his name. ------------------ Walt Williams is the worst player I have ever seen start an NBA game
Going by stats Walt only has 8 people better than him at shooting the 3, but its obvious Wiz is one of the best long range shooters in the league. 1 John Stockton .508 2 Bryon Russell .481 3 Shammond Williams .463 4 Terry Porter .441 5 Brent Barry .436 6 Pat Garrity .435 7 Fred Hoiberg .433 8 Walt Williams .430 ------------------ Ceo of the Walt Williams fan club.

Look at Walt's contributions the last few weeks. You'd think he hadn't played either. As for Collier, go back and look what a consistently HEALTHY Collier can do. When he was healthy, he was consistently giving a solid 8-10 pts/4 reb in 15-20 minutes. Excellent production from a backup center. Collier's mobility is hampered now, and he's not in game condition yet. Let him get some reps before you get all over him, and let him get back in a groove. ------------------ President of the Jason Collier and Mo Taylor fan club! Draftsource.net ClutchTown.com
this is a fun game. hmmm, let's see ... Vitaly Potapenko Jason Caffey Issac Austin Shawn Bradley Big Country Scottie Pippen that's about all I can think of right now. ------------------ snap crackle pop
Lil Francis, I have no idea why you are bashing Bullard and Langhi. Matt Bullard is a treasure here in Houston.........he is the best, I repeat the best, 3 point shooter to ever grace the Rocket team. Matt has contributed to many Rocket victories over the years as a clutch backup player. There is nothing more beautiful than a Bullard three and nothing more ugly than a Williams charge. Langhi on the other hand just needs a chance to play. Trust me he will do better than the "Wizard" though that does not mean that he will contribute much at all. Given the chance Langhi will show you why he was the SEC player of the year (I have seen him play in school and he can shoot the lights out). Unfortunately Lil Francis you won't get much of an argument out of me on Collier........but don't be to quick to say he is worse than Walt because he would have to be crappy for another year and a half to make that a fair comparison. ------------------ Walt Williams is the worst player I have ever seen start an NBA game
Pippen, Big Country, and Caffey shouldn't be in that list Lardboy!!! Big Country has actually been playing pretty well in the last few games. I'd rather have his output than Walt's on this team right now. ------------------ "I personally don't think Jordan would have enjoyed playing with himself." -- JeffB lets us all know that Popeye and Clutch aren't the only ones with inside sources... (also an example of a BBS "sound-bite")
Bullard cant hit 2s. NO defense, no rebounds, cant pass, cant put the ball on the floor, really slow player, weak, his dunks suck, I got alot more but these are reasons why Rudy doesnt let him play. ------------------ President of the Moochie Norris fan club.
You seriously think that Miki Moore is a better player than Walt? He started for Detroit once. Give the Wizard a break. It is obvious that he is not being used properly in the offense. He is as pure as shooters can get. He just needs the right offensive sets. Oh, and he is a better defender than Mobley, although that isn't saying much. ------------------ "Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning how to put food on their family while being put to death."

I have to disagree with you on this point. There is something uglier than a Williams charge, and that's Bullard's defense! ------------------ Never judge a man unless you walk a mile in his shoes, that way when you do judge him, you'll be a mile away and have his shoes.
