The only thing Sean Williams can do for this team is help "hook them up" with some "good stuff."

If you know what I mean.

Yea that would be a bad influence on Sheed, we don't need him being even lazier and fatter,BBD too

I really wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the guys on the team smoke weed. Also does anyone really think that Sean Williams would have any influence on any guy on our team in any way? I don't know if he would do much for our team but as far as the whole weed smoking thing I think thats kind of a joke.

Yeah, KG puff herb erryday. That's why he's so mellow.
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

The fact that he is a knucklehead isn`t why teams won`t sign him, the problem is he can`t play organized basketball...

Yes he can.

Everyone thought that Nate Robinson was a knucklehead with talent and look at what he has given us. This young kid is super athletic and is great on defense. Around a veteran crew like this I don't think he would have any problems and could really turn into something special learning from KG, Sheed, Perk and having a couple coaching leaders such as Pierce, Allen, and now Finley. I would love it. He could fill a role similar to what Birdman does out West (who I am still mourning over the fact we didnt sign him when we showed interest.)

I cannot believe we have started with the Sean Williams stuff again. He is the last thing this team needs. A loose cannon who has shown both in college and the pros that he has little interest in focusing on playing the game of basketball.

Here is a bit of Sean's past:

Of course, he also was kicked out of BC.

This team needs another shotblocker off the bench. I really hope Danny takes a look at Williams.

What do we have to lose?

I don't think Sean Williams is good enough to crack the Celtics big man rotation.

In fact, I don't think he is good enough to beat out Scalabarine or Shelden Williams for the fifth or sixth big in the depth chart role.

I think Sean Williams is a long term project. That if you sign him you are planning on him becoming a contributor late next season or the year thereafter. I don't think there is any chance of him being a positive contributor this season.

I think we need to sign Sean Williams.

 I dont know how many more times i can take watching Baby get out jumped, out-quicked on rebounds. How many more times do i have to sit there and watch Baby pump-fake his life away trying to make a layup, only to get his shot blocked, b/c the shot-blocker is sitting there getting his feet set, while Davis is in his little pump-faking zone?

How many more times do I have to watch Perk, post-up, get the ball in the post, tell everyone to clear out, only to stand still for 5 seconds, wasting that 5 seconds and in those 5 seconds, allowing the defense to reset? And its not like Perk is drawing dbl teams, so its not like he's going to ever pass out of the post up, perk is a black hole.

How many more times do i have to watch Perk catch the ball in perfect position to go STRAIGHT UP for a dunk or layup, only to have him bend down and dbl-tie his shoe strings first, and then go up, and once he goes up, he does a Baby and pump-fake, allowing the shot blockers to regain their balance and set there feet to time their jump.

And if those guys aren't cutting, then thats when Doc can turn to his bench and call on Sheed!....I dont think i need to rant about what sheed is doing right now, b/c....well, you know.

I dont know about anybody else but, I think we NEED sean Williams at this point. We can't continue to have 3 out of our 4 bigs hurting the team.

Perk-Sheed-Baby-KG

Look at those names. And think about how they've been playing since Christmas. We are getting read to start the playoffs in a month. I just dont think we can get consistent production out of 3 of those guys (baby, sheed, perk); in 4 games against the same team.
Thats what they are going to have to do in order to get out of the 1st round.

I just feel like we need another dynamic on that front line. Sean Williams would add an energetic-athletic-defensive minded dynamic to that front line.

I mean Sean Williams could put up Sheed like numbers: s.williams could go 0-5 from 3pt. or he could grab 2 or 3 rebs. and entire game. So for people to say he's no good, he wont cut the rotation, he's a project, he's this and he's that, well look at the production or lack thereof from a majority of the frontline now, since Christmas; dont get lost in the "names" (sheed-perk-baby) but, look at the games and how they play, and then look at the numbers.  How is Sean Williams going to hurt?

Sounds like you're less about Sean Wiliams than you are anti-Wallace.

Well, either way, I don't see a downside to signing him.

Personally, I think there will be times when he could work as a situational player. When another team's second unit is going at the rim freely, you need to at least try something different and right now we don't have any options to even try....

Because Sean Williams stopped so many teams from going to the rim when he was in New Jersey?

The guy's game is all flash and no substance.

He has a little potential to him and could become a useful player down the road but that is a long term project. Not a month until the playoffs project.

It's like signing Gerald Green and expecting him to become a key contributor overnight. It just isn't going to happen.

I wouldn't put Baby in that group.  Although he's not always effective, he always give 100%.

but we have substance right now....we need a little flash. We need the option of having someone who is at least capable of blocking a shot.

The difference between Gerald and Williams is Williams has a specific skill that we are in need of...

but again, what is the downside of signing him?

No interest in Williams. He's not capable of helping a contender.

Williams needs to learn how to play team orientated basketball. How to play with discipline and purpose.

The Celtics are a contender? What's Williams gonna do, make us worse?

Williams may not be the answer, but the Cs should fill out the roster with young guys worth a look (Almond, Sims, Willaims, whatever) at this point.

We are in rebuilding mode whether people want to admit it or not.
