The players they have now are a bunch of talented losers with little leadership, Shelden Williams is a winner with a good attitude who will play defense....don't see how that hurts....unless you want to add another dumb athletic kid have fun in the lottery again next year.

    I don't really see that as a big issue. Williams is almost 260 pounds, if he can come in and play good defense and pull down a lot of boards I don't find an issue with drafting him, I was a little baffled at first but he's a good safe pick. If he's a good defensive PF for your future and pulls down 10 rebounds what's not to like?
