The Orlando Magic missed the opportunity to grab Jason Williams at the start of his NBA career. They will have the chance to get him at the end.

Take a look Wednesday to see if he could fit.

Williams, 32, is the Miami Heat point guard who becomes a free agent this summer, already telling friends that he would love to finish his career in Orlando, where he has made his home since leaving the University of Florida 10 years ago.

O-Sen: Jason Williams could be option for Orlando

This speculative article raises a good point. Williams would be an upgrade over Arroyo. As a former starter, he would offer injury protection for Nelson, a player that gets dinged quite a bit.

And the Championship experience would be good for the locker-room.

We'll see.

2nd option is tricky. I mean, how can you put the words Carlos is a true PG in there and expect any vote at all for that "option"?

:crazy:

so are they saying that when he's a FA we'll go for him, or are they talking this season? his contract, even for an expiring is ridiculous...but, as far as backup PG's go, he's serviceable, he's able to get the ball to guys on the block and on the perimeter pretty darn well, he's a vet and he's still pretty quick...

so no to trading for him, unless we get a nice piece in return, hmmmm Haslem?

I like how this was thrown in at the end for no reason at all

Some interesting thoughts by Indiana Pacers center David Harrison, who served a five-game suspension for violating the league's drug policy. Harrison had three positive tests for marijuana. "There's the politically correct thing to say. There's the basketball player thing to say. And there's what I really want to say," Harrison told reporters who cover the Pacers. "I don't understand how they have a right to look into our lives on any level besides performance-enhancing drugs." Any change in the NBA's policy would have to be addressed when the league and National Basketball Players Association hold collective bargaining talks.

I wouldn't mind him coming her as long as he is our backup point guard and not making alot of money.

JWill would be a much better backup than Arroyo

lol is williams an upgrade over arroyo, whats that quote? do bears sh*t in the woods...
he would be a nice backup to have, that can spot start at times..i would take him over arroyo

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2008 6:06 pm**

I dont like either options. I dont think JW is an upgrade over Arroyo and neither do I think Carlos is a true PG.

I will never take JW over even CA. JW has 0 defence, very slow even darrell Armstrong will get by him.

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2008 6:36 pm**

i dont think either of the two choices are true... if were going for a pg we can do better than jay will

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2008 7:36 pm**

I would welcome J-Will if he is not a distraction in the Locker Room

I'm not thrilled about this. he might be an upgrade, but who wants Jason williams?

Not me.

Nor any of these other crappy players who will suddenly become good when (if) we trade for them and "Dwight rubs off on them", or whatever other claims come up.

Heck, the one player I'd probably be most for adding to this team is quite possibly the most realistic option as he doesn't even have a team right now.
