Robert Williams III aka "Timelord" thread

[blazerfan11]

I have found that he can also go by Dimelord when he makes a nice pass, and Lob Williams. Danny Ainge preferred to call him Lob.

I didn't see a thread for him. Is there one?

Check out his numbers for ORB , DRB, and Rim Defense.

Don’t know why I picked this thread to lose my mind….just an accumulative thing I’m guessing. It’s like, “I got a random thought, gonna start a whole new thread!” Of course, wait for it, the people that will fire back at me about complaining are the motherfuckers starting all the threads! #DeepBreathsFAMS

I hope they limit his play with longevity in mind.

I hope they limit his minutes with longevity in mind.

What are the nature of his injuries?

Easy, there, Turbo...

 

[SheedSoNasty]

It’s amazing how many stats and tendencies are kept nowadays.

I wonder if they know how much weight each player loses after each game…

Knees obviously. #BlazersCenter

What are the nature of his injuries?

My understanding is that he may have a degenerative condition in his knees. Unfortunately those type of things don't get better. It would be great if we got a few years out of him, but I won't hold my breath.

Just a quick, simple microfracture procedure. What could go wrong?

Here's one condition he has: popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES)

https://www.boston.com/sports/bosto...illiams-popliteal-artery-entrapment-syndrome/

The Celtics were aware of the condition prior to selecting Williams with the 27th overall pick, according to the report.

Celtics draft pick Robert Williams has popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES) in both of his legs, MassLive’s Fred Katz reported Monday night citing multiple sources.

PAES is a rare vascular disease in which the positioning of one’s muscles and tendons causes compression of the main artery that runs through the knee. It is most often found in male athletes under the age of 30. According to the Cleveland Clinic, patients with PAES typically suffer from “aching pain, numbness, and tiredness or cramping in the calf when they exercise,” but the symptoms are typically alleviated after three to five minutes of rest.

Katz reported Williams has been playing with PAES “for years” and that a source said his condition was “not too serious.” According to Katz, the Celtics were aware of the condition prior to selecting Williams with the 27th overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft. Texas A&M, where Williams played two seasons of college basketball, was also reportedly aware.

Williams has missed back-to-back summer league games due to an injured right knee. He banged knees with an opposing player late in the first half of his debut Friday and later revealed his bumped knee is also suffering tendinitis.

What’s this TimeLord business?

It’s a nickname given Williams after he was drafted. He overslept and missed his introductory conference call with the media and subsequently missed his flight to Boston.
