Still an asset you can trade for a guard.

Which we kinda need right now.

What a disappointing end. Glad we came back but man what a heart breaker. I knew the Kemba "Ben Gordon" Walker iso was coming. Shved has played some pretty solid defense and has length but I may have put AK on him just to make things interesting. Oh well.

FTs, FTs, FTs....


I don't know people still have hope in Williams. Kid does not look good. It's just one of those things where you watch him play and you can tell he's not going to be an all-star or anything, at least from my prospective. I just see another Marvin Williams or Jeff Green (if even). We should've moved him sooner. Maybe he'll "get it" in a few years but I don't see it, especially here. I don't think he'll ever live up to being that 2nd pick. People watched his one great game vs. Duke and put him right behind Irving (some even ahead). I guess it'll be up to Rubio to get this guy going and get him some highlight reels to up his trade value, which is dwindling each day.

If he's such a great asset, why hasn't Houston dealt him?

He's a scorer who can't score. A dunker who can't dunk. A shooter who can't shoot.

Probably cause they don't have 6 of their rotational guys injured, so they are not pressed for bodies. Yet.

Come on we aren't THAT bad :D


You are. Your off-ball guard (Kemba, I think) there ALSO tried to call a timeout, then immediately berated Williams when HE did…


Go cry me a river.

Your coaching stuff didn't even bother to tell their players that they had no timeouts left. Your team has a long way to go.

So you want me to lie to them about their poorly constructed roster and bad coaching stuff, so they would feel better?
But they won, they should be feeling better regardless.
