Robert Williams (Merged Threads)

Williams seems to have a low pain tolerance, he's always missing time because of something.

Some guys only ball when they feel 98%+

please let us know the reports you read that stated this. do we know for certain this is tied to TL's pain tolerance? not to doctor's advice? not to medical concerns? not to CBS playing things safe?

This is awful. I mean truly awful.

This isn't something small. He doesn't have a small ache or cramp. He has something that caused doctors to tell him to avoid physical activity for THREE WEEKS!!!

A bone marrow edema in the hip is generally a sign of a fracture in the area or transient osteoporosis, both of which are extremely painful. It can resolve itself over time with rest and therapy but it is a very serious condition that could be a sign of much larger problems, unfortunately for our good Mr. Williams.

People don't do very physical things with this or some of the other problems Williams has had. Questioning the young man's willingness to play through pain, his toughness and his heart like you are is bad form in my opinion, even more so knowing the severity of what a bone marrow edema can be and the pain it can cause.

my heart goes out to him.  Thats a painful injury.

unfortunately we have no replacement at his athleticism and IQ level.


A healthy celtics team with a 100 % Timelord , Smart, Kemba,   Hayward is as good as any group.

We just need some healthy weeks

There’s a good chance that he should not walk on the affected leg, not just because of pain but also to prevent further injury.

If the cause is transient osteoporosis he could be out a lot longer than three weeks.

He seems to specialize in unusual conditions... is this related to his PAS? There’s not a whole lot of clinical data.

I think it is in bad form to think I am in bad form 

You can dispute my form and have a valid point but you can't dispute Robert Williams misses a lot of time for various reasons.

hopefully this is something he can get over via therapy

worst case surgery

because missing long stretches after playing 20 games, is not a NBA basketball career

Robert Williams has Clint Capela part 2 written all over him and this team needs him

Just comeback 110 percent healthy
