Scott Williams

Paint points.

At one point, Scott Williams was like, wait, am I seeing this correctly? The Celtics are shooting 68% from the field? Like, look, we all.

They shot 64% on twos.

Yeah.

Right.

And while sitting next to someone new on a rotating basis with, you know, the Bill Winnington and the Will Purdue and the Kendall Gill and Robbie Humble and Scott Williams rotation that we'll hear this year.

And I know it's going to be hard for Bulls fans because we're so used to in certain moments.

We've been programmed to think in certain moments on that shit.

We love Will Perdue.

Who else is filling in? Scott Williams.

Scott Williams.

I loved Scott Williams as a player.

Great role guy coming off the bench in the first three championships.

North Carolina guy too, I believe.

Here we go.

It starts with Scott Williams from the Cavaliers.

Michael Jordan from the Bulls this time.

Steve Sachs with the Birmingham Barons.

And here's the explanation.

Glavin, a draft pick of the LA Kings, okay, I didn't know that, took part in one ECHL exhibition game after he retired, while Perot skated with Gretzky in Los Angeles.

So the spoke goes from Scott Williams all the way through Yannick Perrault to Wayne Gretzky.

Interesting.

Everybody can sit there and say these things, but it's a different beast when you go out there and you put in the work to prove it.

We heard Scott Williams, who did a awesome job tonight.

Shout out Scott Williams.

Yeah.

Way to go, Scott.

We heard Scott Williams talking about the build of Matas Buzelis.

Mm-hmm.

You could just see it-

We... [laughs] I m- I made that bold claim last week, the give me the hot sauce hot take.

But you know, Scott Williams was referred to as The Tank, 'cause he'd just come in there and bulldoze his way around and get rebounds, and second chance opportunities, and set screens for the perimeter guys.

That's exactly what Iwoka does.

And if he continues to stay, um, healthy and continues to do what he's doing, I think he deserves a shot on the rotation.

I think he's got a great future.

Um, he's a guy that every team needs.

That Kurt Thomas, Scott Williams, uh, you know, that banger type that just comes in for 12, 15 minutes and changes the game around a little bit while your starters are resting.

Well, certainly.

I think your guys that you play through your go-to guys, they need to be three level scorers.

um but your roll guys if you only got eight shots a game you don't need to be pivoting and jabbing and shooting mid-range jumpers that's my opinion i think that people automatically see analytics and think you go shoot 18 step back threes but like the game has just changed so much analytics is not telling michael jordan not to shoot mid-range jumpers like he's a great shooter he's gonna take those shots You know what I'm saying? Analytics is saying, Scott Williams, don't shoot this 16-foot jumper.

Sit behind a three-point line.

You make the floor bigger, you're knocking down these shots because they're worth more if you shoot the same percentage from mid-range.
