Shawne Williams Waived 

Post#1 » by Kilroy » Tue Jan 7, 2014 7:05 pm

Thanks Phil XI I just thought it needed it's own thread.

That leaves us with 14 players, 5 of which can't play...

You'd have to think something is going to happen.

good...while his shooting form looked good the actual ball going in rate was as ugly as MWP. Also probably one of the dumbest players on the teams in regards to fouling and giving up 3pt plays on obvious dunks that he had no business trying to challenge from behind.

LOL, Dantoni must be mad at FO for this. Guess what, either you play Kelley all the time or you will have to play Hill and Kaman now

Kind of expected this:

We might just be bringing in Turkoglu as a back up ball handler.

No thanks. I'd rather have LO.

Funniest thing is calling Bynum and saying we never wanted to cut you, we have the doctors and familiarity to welcome you back. Would be funny as **** if they brought him back on the cheap
