    Shammond Williams probably, they were talking to him yesterday about coming in.

    I hope not though. Haven't seen him but I heard his defense is awful.

    i think it is williams,i havent really seen Shammond Williams play all that much so i cant really make a judgement on him but any veteran point guard will be a good fit with the lakers especially with all these young guards we have on the team

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (arya202 @ Jul 7 2006, 03:02 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>I was really hoping for someone starter quality.</div>hey, its not official that it is williams just a big possability that it is,if tony delk was signed that would be even better but how many veteran point guards are free agents right now?bobby jackson is going to sign with the hornets and i wouldnt consider marcus banks a veteran so either than Shammond Williams and tony delk who else could it be?

    Shammond Williams will not solve any problems but I love that guys game. He is very quick and a decent passer. He is very athletic. He is 6'1 200lb, he has had ok averages over his career in the little amout of pt he has gotten. I was bummed when the C's traded him to Denver. Here is his player page...http://www.nba.com/playerfile/shammond_williams/?nav=pageIt doesn't show but he went to North Carolina and he is 31 years old now.

    Points 28 @ L.A. Lakers 04/10/00 [​IMG] he did score his carear high against us, even though it seems that was back in 2000...i wouldnt mind having him here with the lakers like i said we need some veteran leadership since jimmy jackson is most likely leaving via free agency and aaron mckie will probably be traded

    We either need a good defensive starter or a veteran starter. Shamond Williams is neither.
