Would have been the perfect game last night for Williams to get an extended run, too.

With Yabu out for a while I'm guessing we will finally see more Robert Williams.
Yabu and Baynes, as it stands.  Horford is still hobbled but likely to return soon.

We do need Horford for Anthony Davis on Monday. Going to be rough if all we have is Daniel, great as he's been playing. May need to put Semi on him as well.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

Or Horford and Baynes will get healthy quick and the bigs rotation will be Horford, Morris, Baynes, Theis Ojeleye and Williams will never see the floor

So certain are you.

Williams is expected required to play tonight.

Bench of Brown, Ojeleye, Wanamaker, Williams, and Dozier. Things should get interesting - let's hope for great things out of Williams while matched up with AD

Not one for a little play on words, I see. Weird response  ???

His activity so far has been great this evening!

Common spectator: "So, Robert Williams was another one of those Nets picks that the Celtics got in the high lottery right?"

Celtics fan: "No, they got him in the late first-round."

Common spectator:  :o :o :o

I loved the block on Davis' shot.

Williams is going to be an real asset for this team.

Yup, loving this kid, called it on draft night, and how much crow is being eaten right now by all the people who called RW3 a bum, or even a drug addict.

We need to resurrect those posts for sure.

So it's kinda easy to see why Stevens isn't giving rotation minutes over Baynes, Theis and Horford. He is extremely limited offensively. He ball watches a bunch and tried to block everything underneath, often leaving his man for a weak side block only to have it dished to his man for the score. He got lost some.

But, and this is a huge but, his man on man defense is excellent, he has good court vision, he will be one of the best rim protectors in the league in a couple years, his effort is off the charts and his potential for growth is exceptional.

He won't be getting tons of time this year when everyone is healthy, but in a year or two, watch out. He is going to be a great player. Just have to have patience and trust in Brad to fully develop him.
