Jason Williams Retires

After 10 yrs in the NBA, PG Jason Williams calls it a career. Among the three teams he spent with during his career, four of the years was with the Grizzlies from 2001 to 2005. From his crazy passes to teammates, jackin up shots, to his wildboy image, to his verbal spar match with Geoff Calkins when the Grizz got eliminated by the Suns in 2004. Lol, that has to be the top fav of Williams since i'm laughin about it now. "You ain't got nothing whiteboy" Really told Calkins off and Mike Miller had to pull him back. Though it all, i guess you can say J-Will had a solid career in the pros and now he has call it a career after 10 yrs.

Isnt it a pity?

I really enjoyed him during the kings years, but those years of the grizzs in the Playoffs he did pretty well, He changed his mind and started to play for the team and stop the turnovers.

I'm glad he got his title before he called it a career.

i have decided... Ricky Rubio. So next year, i'd have a team... For now, continue supporting Steve Nash and the Suns... i'd follow Jason's former teams of course :)

Now's the time to become a team fan and not a player's fan. :wink:
