I'm on my phone right now so its hard for me to put the link, it-s not its own topic but you can read it under the Jamal Crawford/Knix article.

I'd be okay with signing Williams, he duplicates some of what the Nets already have but he's a crafty scorer and would be a much welcomed addition off the bench.

My only concern is that I feel MarShon Brooks may be Reggie Williams 2.0...

Didn't I have Reggie Williams in the original B-A-T, or did someone steal him from me?

On a side note, to the above post about the typo, I'm a big fan of Shawne Williams.

Word is we're offering him a one year $4 million deal.

Had a decent year last season but has been a bit problematic before that. Can you elaborate why you're a fan? I'm just surprised lol

Really good defender, toughness, really good shooter from deep, knows his role and accepts it, relatively solid BBIQ, should come cheap.

So long as his knee checks out, he's not a bad player.

Free agent forward Shawne Williams has narrowed his choices to the Knicks or Nets, league sources tell Y! Sports.

Yeah, c'mon Shawne!!!

He'd probably start at SF for us.

Just tweeted this to him:

@ShawneWill3 Come to the Nets! We need you!!!

@ShawneWill3 You can start for the Nets, but not for the Knicks! Help us leave NJ with a bang!

Common sense says that he should be picking us because we're offering him more money and a starting position. But Knicks writers are saying that he prefers Knicks over us.

The Knicks are better than us at this very moment but he'll get no PT.

He should take the money and PT and play for a bigger contract the year after.

I'm not a fan of Shawne Williams he doesn't finish that well around the basket and off the dribble despite his size.
