Warriors waive PG Marcus Williams - Page 2 - Message Board Basketball Forum

Wow I remember that draft night vividly when Zeke picked Renaldo Balkman. It's weird to see Marcus Williams being waived before him.

Yeah I know we should have taken Rondo, but it's nice to see that Balkman's still in the league.

The Kings have always showed tons of interest for him, and was one of the finalist of teams for acquiring him when the nets were trading him. Right now the kings PG looks like this. Beno(injured) Bobby and Will Solomon. Not really exciting huh?!

I have no doubt that he'll be a king for the remainder of the season and if he pans out well, he will be in the future plans for the Kings. Picking him would almost solve our PG problems and then we could draft Griffen; and either look to play JT at center with Blake at PF....or bringing JT off the bench, or even trading either Blake or JT=filler for an allstar SF.....someone like Rudy Gay

Hawes
JT
Gay
Martin
Williams

or

JT
Blake
Noc
Martin
Williams

Balkman is like a rich man's Jeffries.

Sac would be crazy to move Hawes back to the bench!

Rod Thorn did it again. He traded Nets garbage for what most likely will be a future first round pick from Warriors. Genius.

not really you know...but see, im not sold as the next sac fan on JT but they really believe he's gonna be cwebb reborn. But I would rather Hawes to be the starter

I remember when the Clippers offered Maggette and Mobley for VC and the Nets wanted Shaun Livingston added and the only way Dunleavy would do it is if they added Marcus Williams but the Nets said no. How different would everyone's lives be if that had happened...

I'm still glad we didn't take that trade. Two players out of the league and a 3rd player that can't even play 50 games a season.

Yeah he has been riding the bench for a minute now.

I wonder what is going on at GS. I mean....Monta is unhappy...Nelly wants people to leave....WTF is going on?

Nellie doesnt like Maggette a lot. He doesnt like Wright, he's not fond of Randolph. Ellis is in his doghouse, he wants Crawford to leave, he didnt liek Baron Davis.

So who's left?

CJ Watson
Benni
Stephen Jackson
Biedrins
That strange white guy.

I still remember the Knicks getting absolutely killed for not selecting this guy.

Hopefully the struggles of Marcus Williams will lead NBA fans to watch more college basketball. That way they can evaluate talent themselves rather than take the word of the talking heads on TV.

this is sad theres been a bunch of other good threads on this teams forum yet sum scrub gets waived and its already got pages worth of comments are the warriors that horrible?
