    Be nice to see him out there so the team can get some more information on if it would be worth it to bring him back (hopefully for the minimum if they do that though).

    Do we really trust this medical/training staff to get his timeline right?

    In the limited minutes he played last season...

    Williams >>>>>>> ANY SG/SF on this team not named Wes Matthews and Nic Batum.

    And it's not close.

    I think it is close because he can't stay on the court. Claver for 1 is a guy I would keep over E Will (and I agree E Will is exciting WHEN he can play).

    Williams scored in bunches and had a legit jumper.

    It's not close IMO.

    So we are all agreeing, Barton is a longshot in this league

    I think Barton will play for a while in the NBA. He has skill, just not a lot of BBall IQ

    Barton and E Will are actually pretty similar outside of the injury part.

    Sample size, I know, but

    in 149 minutes, Williams has a PER of 18.8

    in 520 minutes, Barton has a PER of 6.9

    Yep sample. And Williams played with a way better bench. No doubt if healthy you pick E Will over Barton. They are a similar player imo though.

    Mid range jumper sure. Both are bad from deep though.

    BBIQ I will leave up to the pros. I will just say neither is a Steve Nash when it comes to thinking on the floor.
