Deron Williams Plans To Return From Ankle Injuries On Monday 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sun Jan 19, 2014 7:31 pm

Deron Williams has missed five games since undergoing cortisone shots and platelet-rich plasma injections in both of his ankles.


He is expected to return for Monday's road game against the New York Knicks.


"That's the plan," Williams said.


Williams is averaging 13.6 points and 6.9 assists this season.


"It'll be great, another guy who can really put pressure on the defense and make plays and help us out," Joe Johnson said of Williams' pending return. "Right now, we're really battling with one point guard, Shaun Livingston. If we get Deron back, that'll really mean a lot."

We really need both New York teams to catch fire and make the playoffs. If the Bulls are going to tank in fine fashion, as we know they can, then we don't need the added competition. From what I understand, the Nets wouldn't get a pick anyhow. So leave that tanking to us!
After Rose broke both his knees, I gave up on the hope that we'd make it to the NBA Finals again. It will probably be decades before we see another championship. Hello Treadmill, here we come.

It's the shoes!
