  • what about marvin williams

    read that he wasn't happy with his role.

    what do you think about him as sf instead of batum or chandler(hypothetically of course)
    he can hit the 3 has good hands. not a bad player. but i think that calderon to atlanta for hinrich and williams.

    trade machine only works if i add in alabi but i think that something somehow can be figured out.

    I could see Marvin's numbers going up with the Raptors, but not sure how much more he would give you that James Johnson isn't giving you right now. They're both pretty even right now.

      Not to mention what he'd give up defensively

          He's actually underrated defensively, he doesn't give up as much as James Johnson I can tell you that.

            James Johnson is one of the better defending wings in league..

              Yeah but James Johnson isn't a defensive stopper......

              Marvin Williams can play defense, he's not a Ron Artest, LeBron James, type defender, but he can stop ball and make it hard. It's not bad defense he plays, it's just not great.

                Prove it. What is your opinion based on?

                  The Hawks gave him a pretty nice contract, so they think pretty well of him. With that being said, they're not going to just give him away.

                      Marvin Williams claim to fame....he was picked by Atlanta instead of CP3....to their everlasting regret. Somewhat similar to the Raps (but not as bad) when they opted for Joey Graham instead of Granger.

                      No thanks. I'd much prefer a Chandler or a Batum.

                        Seconded. The guy has never reached his potential, he is what he is: a 25-minute, 9 and 5 guy. Do not want.

                            He's the best defender I've seen in a raptors uniform... whatever that says. He can take over a game on that end. I'm really not sure why more of his blocks don't make the highlight reals. No one has lit him up this year, and Casey has 100 percent confidence in him. His offence is finally finding it's stride. He's taking it hard to the hoop all the time. You should pay more attention to his game.

                            As for Marvin, I thought BC should have went with him instead of Turk a few years ago. He would have been cheaper and Atlanta wouldn't have been able to match. However, he is inconsistent and can disappear during games.

                            The Klieza and JJ combo isn't bad for now. Give it another year and see how things work out with the draft and Jonas.

                              Yeah but they aren't an answer at the three, I would love them on this team for years to come, but they aren't going to get things done in the playoffs where it was probably a very important piece when it comes to production.
