Quote from: footey on February 23, 2020, 07:24:49 PMFor those arguing that Rob Williams won't find more than 5-10 minutes a game the rest of this season because we have Kanter backing up Theis, I refer you to the recently completed Lakers game. Kanter is just unplayable in these types of contest. Rob Williams (you know, the guy who blocked Anthony Davis's shot twice in the same game last year) clearly could have provided decent minutes, especially as Theis was dragging toward the end.I think Kanter is hurt, which is what is making him so unplayable. He has demonstrably limited in his movements since before the break.

All indications are he is pain free and good to go. Would be so sweet to see him play tomorrow night and swat away some Harden 3's and Westbrook dunk attempts!!I'd be satisfied with good positional/team defense and not getting caught going for showy blocks resulting in offensive boards and putbacks by the other team. I'd be satisfied with him making it up and down the court for 5-6 minutes without wincing. We need dude back for good, he can be that last bench piece.

I think expectations of Rob are very low on this board, I get it. But I feel that this team's next step up will be on defense, and he will be a large factor for that occurring. Wishful thinking, perhaps, but I'm rolling with it.
I may be in the minority here but I think he going be a bust..hope I’m wrong

Please explain...First, dude seems like he is injured all the time...second, just don’t think he really all that focus..3rd, when he does play, looks lost out there sometimes...again, hope I’m wrong but does reminds me of Tyrus Thomas type player
Cleared to play!!!!
