Team has enough young talent…we’re firmly in win now mode. I’d package that pick if we can get some veterans at backup PG and in the post (ie a Bobby Portis, Jae Crowder, PJ Tucker type of high leverage role player). I’d rather have that then another young player who isn’t gonna play as much

Marvin Williams Sr. Is More Than Just An NBA Dad
Im still mad about this shyt 16 years later. The delusion
“At that time, if you came in as the first or second pick in the draft, they used to build the whole team around you,” Williams recalled. “You were the guy that was going to take the franchise to the next level. When Marvin went to Atlanta, that wasn’t the case.
“Everything was built around Joe Johnson, the owner was captivated with him,” Williams Sr. continued. “That general manager at the time [Billy Knight] was so far ahead of his time that people didn’t even realize what he was doing until now.
“[Knight] kept picking forwards and everyone was asking why, but they were some versatile forwards. And then with [Mike Woodson], I think he felt like Marvin was coddled at Carolina, which he wasn’t. He’s always worked hard. But Woody never gave him credit for his work ethic. Had Woody done a better job – and as a black coach, he was more concerned about keeping his job instead of developing Marvin as a second option – they could’ve done something special.”
U being serious?
