I could definitely get behind re-signing Mo Williams to a 2-year deal after this season, but of course that's all subject to how he fit into Clifford's system

One thing I really like about Mo other than his shooting, passing ability and starting experience is his style of play. He can push a faster pace and stress out a defense. I really felt with Roberts leading our 2nd unit teams were able to catch breathers. Mo Williams presence with force opposing starters in the game longer and tire them more by 4th quarters. Also having Mo allows more rest for Kemba, so at fewer minutes not only will Kemba stay fresh longterm but he can maintain a higher level of energy through 4th quarters. I did not enjoy watching teams get to rest for so many minutes. I think fans are going to love this guy.

Have a great night everyone, enjoy the game.

See you around.

Mo is probably the best backup PG we've ever had

Maybe, but when you think about it every starting PG we have had here over the years should have actually only been back ups on good teams (Knight, Felton, Augustin....)

Great trade. Great player

No matter how much this guy gets bumped around the league, his body of work is always good enough to warrant attention and trade value.

I really hope he can find his permanent place here in CHA 8-)

Mo Williams talked to media today in CLT. Excited about playing with "best friend" Al Jefferson again. http://t.co/GK9j2FQomU

I am excited about Mo and think he will provide a boost to this team. However, let's not be naive and think he's a can't miss offensive threat.

In twelve games in November he shot 36.4% from the field and 34.2% from three. In nine games in December he shot 37.6% from the field and 25.9% from three. From looking at game logs it looks like he is very much an up and down type player as opposed to a consistent reliable scorer.

What makes me more excited is not his scoring potential but his playmaking potential. He is averaging 6.4 apg on the season in just 28 mpg. The big difference in my mind between Neal and Mo is that if Mo's shot is off he still will be productive and will get assists. I expect ball movement on the second unit to dramatically improve with Mo around.

It'll be interesting to see if Lance is around post-All Star break. If so, our two best passers will probably both be on our second unit.
