    I think he will show some promise with the Timberwolves, but then get injuried shortly after pre-season starts.

    I'm sure he'll get back on the court under the watchful eyes of our training staff.

    I really hope he is back with us next year.
    I'm not worried about his history of injurys. This last one was a freak accident and could have happened to anyone.

    Williams has been hurt every season. He hurt himself this last time doing something every NBA player does every day. At some point you are injury prone, and that point was last season for Williams

    I can't remember who posted it, but it was very telling... Something about Greg Oden has played in more games than E Will on that same first 4 year span. Something like double the amount of games.

    I don't see what all the excitement is about he hasn't even shown he can stay on the court for more than 20 games.

    I asked my orthopedic surgeon after it happened and he said 1 year for an NBA player to be fully recovered

    yeah, 11 months for a full tear/rupture is pretty standard
