Just another Eric Williams??? As much as I like Walter's hard-work and
athletiscism, Eric Williams is on a completely different level. Williams
will score 20 ppg in this league (especially on the Nuggets) for years to
come. In my opinion, it was stupid to let him go in the first place. If
the basketball gods had been looking down on us, this would be the C's
lineup right now:

C Tim Duncan
F Antoine Walker
F Eric Williams
G Ron Mercer
G David Wesley

Bench:
G/F Rick Fox
F Clarence Weatehrspoon
C/F Michael Cage
C/F Pervis Ellison
G Dana Barros
G Dee Brown
C Marty Conlon!!!!!
