Lou Williams joined HOU Thursday in NO. Didn't participate in shootaround. Didn't know if he'd play...has 22 pts & 6 3s in 20 minutes
Team is enamored with tanking. We sent our only player worth something for a late pick. Time to ride the younglins into the mediocrity ocean. I used to make fun of Boston miserable years, this is our turn.
No need for this drama, just because he had a good game. Was he a 6th man for a contender? He was a scoring punch for a team not even in contention for a playoff spot. He's never played any defense in his career, and turns 31 this year. This gets us a pick and hedges our team towards keeping the lotto pick. Mediocrity is what the Lakers are trying to avoid.
I never thought Jim and Mitch should be replaced. This post gives me a smile knowing that fans will never be happy no matter who's in charge.

even Skal and Mclemore are playing well tonight...there is some young talent in Sac...they still have Malachi Richardson on the roster who has got no minutes this year....they are not good, but they have some pieces to evaluate.

Shame we won't be getting WCS soon now that he's unleashed.

We'll be relying on the next Jordan Farmar and Wesley Johnson as the faces of the franchise

Trading Lou for a 1st round pick was one of the most obvious moves that I can remember in quite some time. The entire league expected this to happen and it did. Not sure what there is to complain about.

He wasn't complaining. He was pouncing on the opportunity to throw more backhanded shade.

Wow, did anyone else watch him play this game? He was hitting jump shots, driving to the basket, one handed shots from 5 feet. 22 (bleep) shots! It was almost like he was scared to be himself with Boogie on the team. _________________ A banana is killed every time a terrible thread or post is made. Save the bananas.

Ian Begley just said on ESPN radio the Knicks and Wolves had a deal but by the time NY agreed, they simply ran out of time...goodbye
Probably not true, but this is the Knicks we're talking about here

That was actually the one deal that I liked for the Knicks and thought they should've pounced on. Oh well, back to maxing past his prime Derrick Rose. Good job Phil.

It's a reason why I was screaming his & Noel name on here for months. I expect big #'s from Noel also _________________ "He's a Zen master, so he can speak to you, and he doesn't need a microphone; you can hear him in your head, 'Ron, don't shoot, don't shoot.'

Lou was probably the best player we've had in the last 3 years.
It's understandable that fans would have grown attached to him.

Reminds me of Jermaine Oneal.
His rookie year he was behind Rasheed. Sophomore year he was 3rd string behind Rasheed and Brian Grant. He couldn't even get center minutes because Arvydas started and Sheed/Kelvin Cato spelled him.
Guy gets moved to Indiana and in year 1 there goes 13/10 then 19/10 and dpoy caliber play. It just happens...
Hopefully we'll see some of our guards make a huge jump with more freedom and a longer rope. I'm counting on it. _________________ KOBE

It's unbelievable- especially when the entire idea behind increasing the lotto odds is to avoid long-term mediocrity.

Where's VLF ? IIRC, he loves WCS. Looks like he may have been onto something.

what the heck
At this mark:
The guard thought he could drive pass WCS. Stein stayed with him and swatted that non-sense. _________________ KOBE

Difference between Mitch and Ainge:

2-3 Unprotected First Round Picks for aging Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett.
Mitch got NOTHING for Dwight Howard and Pau Gasol. Younger and better players at the time they walked.
That is what did us in...
I hate the Celtics as much as all of us here do...but they did it right.
Yes, if Mitch traded an aging Kobe for draft picks and built around Dwight, he would have have been as smart as Danny Ainge.
Indeed. Dwight was supposed to be our future cornerstone. He was not to be traded. With the CP3 trade Mitch showed that for the right price Pau can be had. Yet, for some reason we did not get decent offers for Pau. I guess everybody was expecting him to walk and then have him as a FA. GMs are not stupid, you know. _________________ .
