WIlliams doesn't even get to play and he doesn't bitch this much. Where's the leadership? We still gave the guy a 4 year max contract and so far he got injured (again), hasn't gotten in shape, and is shooting 38%. If he's already bitching while things are going well, it's probably just a matter of time before he bitches his way out of town.
There would not be a team in the league that would say no to grabbing love. That generally means it's not a good idea to trade a guy on the first year of his (almost) max contract.
I get it, he is developing an unsettling habit of bitching to the press. He always bitches to the refs, and he's been out of shape and injured this whole season. As a player right now his best offensive move is a pump-fake, his shot has been atrociously off the whole season, and his defense always leaves something to be desired.
But he can still play. We know that. And I might be alone in this, but I don't think that this is love's prime. I think he can and will get better. Selling low on him because you don't like him is not a good idea.
