Don't see why he shouldn't get a invite, dude has been lights out from DT. do any of you thinks he's better then gallo, or is he just like in a zone, cause he doesn't miss much from down there.

Besides that, the fact that we have 2 deadly snippers post up on the wings should not be taking for granteed, not to mention there 6 10" and have long wing spans.

Then we have Fields and Chandler slashing and finishing. I really think all upgrades should come via FA.

Williams seems to be the better pure shooter at this time. He has a more compact and consistent stroke. He is more like 6'8," I would think. Gallo, who is probably over 6'10" at this point, has to regain control of his body and work on his shooting form consistency, IMO.

Williams belongs in the contest, but I don't want him there because he may win, gain some attention, and place himself outside of our budgeting plans for next year.

His stroke is automatic. He was built to shoot those corner 3's. Absolutely perfect fit for this O. I never knew he could shoot it like that- I don't think he came into the league shooting like that. We may have caught lightning in a bottle.

Some of his 3's bearly graze the net, and although he shoots it best from the conners, he's still well above avg from every where else, i'm almost surprise when he misses one.

The one problem i have with players like him and gallo, there horrid from mid range, bill walker as well.

It's amazing how amare is above avg from 20 ft, yet almost never steps back 3 ft for for the 3 ball, and on the flip side, gallo, Williams and bill step in 3 feet and brick shots all day.

As consistent as Shawne is, I noticed that when he actually does miss, it is often really badly, like hitting side of the backboard. Strange.

He misses when he is off balanced. He only hits uncontested 3s or when the defense is late in their rotation and he has ample time to set his feet. He is automatic when he gets his feet set. He is horrible off the dribble. He really is a very tall Dell Curry.

Sounds about right for both him and gallo, you rearly see a big man shoot off the dribble though.

Not a bad guy to have on your team, IMO.

Success for Shawne Williams means the PG and the rest of the Knicks are making the right passes at the right times...

...or the team we are playing simply cannot play defense.

Dell Curry was good, he fathered Stephen Curry. You can always use a trey bucket dropper on your team, like Hubert Davis.

WE AIN'T NOWHERE WITH THIS BUM CHOKER IN CARMELO. GIVE ME STARKS'S 2-21 ANY DAY OVER THIS LACKLUSTER CLUSTEREFF.
