Blazers sign Mo Williams

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

My goodness. Hats off to Neil Olshey. What an amazing job he has done this summer. Remarkable.
 
I've come to realize kingspeed is the greatest forum poster I've ever seen.
 
We are all clearly missing the true meaning behind this. Mo Williams + King James best friends in CLE. King James potentially free agent this year. LeBron has said Oregon is like his "other" home. Loves playing at the RG, loves Duck football, and Nike is located here. LEBRON '15

LeBron has his "other" home in Oregon? Alright!

I have expressed a lot of concerned about Watson being the back up PG for awhile now. I agree with others that say let CJ develop at his natural position of SG. Maybe even play a little with CJ at PG . . . but at least now they aren't relying so much on him or Watson to hold down the fort while Lillard rests. Between Mo, CJ and Earl . . . Lillard should get some needed rest each game while the Blazers don't blow up on the court.

He already signed Watson for mentoring purposes and when it became apparent that you can't count on CJ for even 15 mins, it came down to giving Watson those 15 minutes or finding another player.

Mo Williams and Earl Watson, his Jazz backup last season, complemented each other's talents. See the per-36 section. Williams shot a lot more shots per minute, and better percentages. But Watson was better per minute in all other stats. Watson is 3 1/2 years older, 10 pounds heavier, and the better defender. Stotts will put in Watson when he needs defense.

No seriously, If CJ can't play a lick of PG the guy is dead weight.

I follow #RipCity on twitter and Mo Williams has been getting tweets welcoming him to PDX all day and those are just the ones I see with #RipCity in them not including the ones without and there have been dozens and dozens of them. This guy has got to be feeling the PDX love already. Its nice to see.

The Blazers traded you to Utah for him.

Enjoy Salt Lake City!

Just as long as he doesn't do a Felton and fall in love with Voodoo Donuts.

Another Olshey move that snuck up on us. Where there's fire there doesn't always have to be smoke. I like that.

Oh, don't go getting HCP all excited with visions of multiple sister-wife Mrs. HCPs running bare-assed naked through his head.
 
Re: Mo Williams!

Wow. From string, saw dust, and duct tape one year into a pretty impressive bench unit the next. Olshey is the freaking MacGuyver of NBA talent.

You'd have to seriously sweeten that deal to get Utah to take him.

What did our bench average LAST season compared to what the new bench averaged LAST season?

Wright 9.2 ppg
Williams 12.9 ppg
Leonard 5.5 ppg
Robinson 4.8 ppg
Claver 3.8 ppg
Barton 4.0 ppg
Freeland 2.6 ppg
Watson 2.0 ppg
McCollum ? 9 ppg
Crabbe ? 2 ppg


Total 55.8 ppg

But not realistic to look at way

Last year 18.5 ppg
 
What's the NBA record for the most 3 pointers made by a team in one season. With, Nic, Wes, Damian, Wright, Williams, McCollumn, and Crabbe, that's one whale of a lot of 3 pt chucking potential. And that's not even counting Meyers Leonard. ;)

Starters averaged 81.9, team averaged 97.5. Roughly 15.

This year's bench?

Mo averaged 13 in 30 minutes.

TRob 4.5 points.

The rookies (CJ), ZERO.

Am I missing anyone?

Lopez is a starter, so I didn't count him.

a better question would be, what did the bench average last year compared to Mo Williams himself.

Last year Mo had a PER of 14.5. It will feel so good to have an average nba player coming off the bench.
 
Re: Mo Williams!

Wow, no complaints here on our summer! Another great pick up and we didn't give up anything.
