some extended highlights

Grant Williams vs 76ers a few games ago -  Grant owned Simmons in the interior/boxouts.  Simmons relies too much on everything else but positioning to try to rebound.

Grant Williams vs Orlando Magic -  Grant took Bamba for a ride.  Defensive rebounds, an offensive rebound, block shot.  Just looked "snappier" than Bamba.

Now compare it to this 2019 scouting report prior to the draft regarding his weaknesses.  It's quite remarkable he has improved in all the areas mentioned.  The closing out, PNR D, shooting from distance.  Imagine if teams knew GWill could improve/play like today.  Probably goes 10 picks higher

He only has half the ass Yabu had, although that's still above 1.84% larger than the average ass size.

Yabu's ass made him look like fat Elvis.

this board has long been home to a variety of posters who adore the rush to early judgement. romeo was facing that crowd not long ago.
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.
