this is not good. I'm not the most responsible person in the world but if you waive millions of dollars in my face i'm showing up at least a half hour early wherever you want me to be. Imagine if some team took a chance on him in the lottery and he pulled this crap..
I don't love this. That said, I'm holding onto my judgment right now. We don't know why. He sounds like an immature kid. That annoys me as a fan, particularly if it means I don't get to watch him in summer league.

I would love to see his boneheadness cost him some money, because that may be the only thing that teaches him a lesson.

Some personal anecdotes on missing flights and "time management"I love my wife. So far she's had a very successful career, an executive at a company you all have heard of. Works extremely hard, works all the time, gets the job done, and gets results. Really I don't know how she does it.But she does not understand the time it takes to get from Point A to Point B to save her life. She's missed flights, she's missed meetings, she's missed engagements, if it has a specific start time, my wife has probably missed it. She just can't handle time. A couple of examples:Movie starts at 7pm, movie theater is 15 minutes away, suggesting we leave anytime before 6:40 is ridiculous to her. It just doesn't compute with her that 15 minutes away is from our parking lot to the movie theater parking lot. It will take us 2 minutes to walk from our apartment to our car, 15 minutes to drive to the theater, 2-3 minutes to park and walk into the theater, 5-15 minutes to get tickets and snacks, she may want to use the bathroom before the movie starts, and then 2 minutes to get from the lobby to our seats.Same thing going the airport. She only calculates parking lot to parking lot. Doesn't calculate if we need to get gas first, doesn't calculate that we have to park the car, take a shuttle, check bags, go through security lines, it might be a 20 minute walk to our gate, etc. Doesn't calculate in rush hour traffic, or the possibility of long security lines. Plane leaves at 7 doesn't mean we get there and board at 7, it means we board at 6:30, which means we should be at the airport by 6 at the latest.I love my wife. An extremely talented and hard worker. She just struggles with the concept of time. And I know others like this too.She's gotten better over the years due to me "constantly nagging her" about it, but she struggles with it, still fails to account for things she should be aware of (do you need gas, is it rush hour, is it easy to find parking). Gotten better, but she still struggles.All that to say, there's hope for Robert Williams. You can be a very talented hard worker with your head on straight, and just suck at time management, like my wife.
