Al Iannazzone of the Bergen Record reports (via blog):
| Deron Williams |

| Puffy yet quick |
No doubt was used a lot at Nets practice today, after coach Avery Johnson uttered those two words on ESPN Radio yesterday after being asked about Deron Williams’ future.
Johnson reiterated it today when he was asked about the Nets’ prospects of signing Williams to a new contract/extension when the time is right.
“I have no doubt and I’m really, really confident that we’ll be able to re-sign him,” Johnson said.
Then Johnson went on to say it’s not really a story. We disagree there.
Williams’ future is the main story around the Nets right now. They’re playing great with straight wins and have a big game tomorrow against the Bulls, which should feature a great point guard battle between Williams and Derrick Rose.
