    I haven't heard anything spectacular (Courtside, HCP (or his wife), Quick...). But, as his first year playing, there is no way Nate will play him ahead of veteran players like Nic, Crawful, Wes. It's just the way Nate rolls. Now, if they're really high on him, they may make some room in the off season for him, but I don't expect much this season. Which, to me, is a shame as he seems legit enough to garner extra minutes and not just a victory cigar.

    Well ya, but there nearly every team has multiple expiring contracts. The only thing that would set us apart is by giving up some of the youth we have.

    Don't forget Sergio, pretty sure atlanta offered like #11 or something like that after his rookie year.

    I don't think there is much time to practice when you're playing 4-5 games a week. The players are tired enough, and the level of play around the league already sucks. Plus, Williams was out all of last season. We did hear he looked good over the summer, though.
