    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Guard Alvin Williams underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left ankle Friday in Iowa City, Iowa, the Raptors announced Monday.

    Foot and ankle specialist Dr. Ned Amendola performed the procedure at the University of Iowa.

    The surgery removed bone spurs from the ankle. Williams is scheduled to begin rehabilitation following a brief recovery period.

    Williams averaged a career-best 13.2 points and a team-leading 5.2 assists during the 2002-03 season.

    Get real mcinnis averaged the same as williams on the clippers...send alvin to a top team and he wouldn't even be a back-up PG....he only starts on the raps as they are weak at PG

    Alvin Williams is deinitly top 10-15 pg's. Yea, we are weak at pg's but hes still real good. Better then Mcinnis. You just say this because you obviously hate the raptors.

    He can start on sooo many teams. He plays with more heart then a half of the pg's on the top teams.

    I'll name all the teams he can play on.

    Denver
    Miami
    Clippers
    Lakers
    Chicago (probably)
    New York
    Seattle
    Orlando
    Boston

    There are some other teams that he may be able to get starts at.

    Good teams...but since you mentioned the poor ones

    Denver-they will likely get arenas so no..
    Miami-if they get TJ then no..but he could start
    Clippers-if they get dre back...
    Lakers-possible
    Chicago-hell no..crawford and williams are or will be better
    New York-yes
    Seattle-possible
    Orlando-yes
    Boston-not sure....ask oldskool..bremer is coming along nicely..

    If alvin williams isnt injured next year then he could start. It happens to be that all the good teams have good PG's, because they help teams dramaticly.

    Seattle possibly? Who the hell is there PG?

    brent barry plays point for them...ray allen does abit....so barry is better than williams..but the fact he isn't a true PG..might give AW a chance to start there
