Wow, Alan Williams makes the first team, and Ulis the second. Williams is kind of a surprise, not because of his play, because he was great, but because I'm just surprised they recognized someone who really isn't a big name. Nice to see though.


Re-read the article. William was mentioned in the first part.... then disappears from the player breakdown/analysis. He resurfaces as an honorable mention. Glad for Ulis, but Big Sauce didn't quite cut the mustard here. Have my doubts in the biggies too. Like Len, he lacks a crucial big man talent... good hands. At least thats was my take.


I did re-read it initially because I noticed there were two lists. But Williams is on the official first team. The second list is the ballot of Sports Illustrated. The first list is the actual official results of everyone's votes who got a ballot.

I see... good for him... but I don't see him as much of a contributor here. I was hoping, but he's a just 6-8 wide load plodder. A space eater. I guess on that alone he likely will make our roster as we have no big bodies.

I can't see him being a real part of the rotation . He'd be there mostly for foul problems and games against Marc Gasol, Cousins and such. His game isn't all that dependent on cooperation from the guards. Which makes him one of the few bigs whose game doesn't take a hit in summer league, hence his 1st team showing.
