T-Will and E-5 in the NBA: What are they up to?

PrintFor the first time in their careers, Terrence Williams and Earl Clark played each other. In a dramatic contest, Earl's Phoenix Suns beat T-Wills New Jersey Nets by the tight score of 118-94. Earl powered Phoenix with 3 minutes of amazing play, missing a shot and having an assist for the ages. Williams played the best 19 minutes for the Nets with the line of 4 points on 2-3 shooting, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 1 block. And 3 fouls. They don't play against each other again until March 31. I say Card Chronicle road trip to New Jersey. We should all be able to get awesome seats because no one goes to Nets games.
Let's take a serious look at the numbers. Also, take a serious look at my blog. That was a nice plug.
Terrence Williams
| G | MIN | FGM-A | FG% | 3PM-A | 3P% | FTM-A | FT% | OFF | DEF | TOT | STL | BLK | TO | PF | AST | PTS | |
| Season | 37 | 19.9 | 102-279 | .366 | 15-52 | .288 | 40-59 | .678 | 0.3 | 3.2 | 3.5 | .51 | .05 | 1.41 | 1.59 | 1.5 | 7.0 |
T-Will has been having some rough times in New Jersey. The Nets are 3-38 and chasing the worst record of all time. T-Will has responded to this by some general bratty behavior like sleeping through shoot arounds and complaining about minutes on twitter. It seems that losing and not playing don't go over well with him. T-Will averaged 27 minutes in November with an injury ravaged Nets, 16 in December when people started coming back, and 9 this month. He's responded by averaging 9 pts, 6 points and 2 points in those months. Hopefully things turn around for him.
Earl Clark
| G | MIN | FGM-A | FG% | 3PM-A | 3P% | FTM-A | FT% | OFF | DEF | TOT | STL | BLK | TO | PF | AST | PTS | |
| Season | 28 | 8.9 | 36-93 | .387 | 0-1 | .000 | 12-18 | .667 | 0.4 | 0.9 | 1.3 | .18 | .32 | .57 | .43 | 0.5 | 3.0 |
So there you have it. Neither is playing much, and neither is playing that great while playing. It's only year 1, and only good times are ahead for the former Cards.

I think I would only be a traitor if I started a Louisville blog
There is no room for a U of L blog with the excellent this, Hell in the Hall, Card Game, ITV and so and so on. I’ve mentioned before that I’m from Cincinnati, and there are no Cincinnati blogs so I started one. Did I slyly throw out the link days before the game Sunday so people would look at it? Yes. Did I expect backlash? Yes. Did you expect it to be a myspace blog? I hope not.
That said, I always root for the Cards. Look at the UC game threads. I just wanted a UC blog to read, like how we have Card Chronicle to read. And at least it’s not a Kentucky blog. Right, right? I’ll go sit in silence until the game thread.
OK, maybe you're not a traitor
But you have waaaaaaaaaayyyyyy to much time on your hands.
One kudo, though, that shit about Oscar Robertson was funny.

Memtucky Tigers
At least it isn’t the team ~6 hours southwest of our great city either… though the coaching change did make a HUGE change in the “rivalry meters” between UK and Memphis State. For some reason, I don’t hate them as much now… or yet.
I hated them when Dana Kirk was there, and I hate them now.
Obnoxious fans with a chip on their shoulder the size of Graceland.
via ESPN.com - i like the part about a more "professional demeanor"
Terrence Williams, Nets | Rookie card
“There is little good going on here. Williams is a lottery pick riding the bench for the league’s worst team. And bad teams normally develop their young players.
Williams’ lack of focus before, during and after games is as much a cause for his current situation as anything else. A more professional demeanor and a stronger work ethic could help turn things around."
and…the Bearcats? Really? gtfo
Clark shoulda stayed at Louisville another year
Although personally I’m kinda glad he didn’t seeing as how he seemed to prefer playing for the name on the back of the jersey rather than the front. But, that said, we could certainly use his rebounding right about now.

T-Will to D-Leauge?
There has been some recent talk (mostly among reporters and Net fans) of sending T-Will to the D-Leauge to get his game as well as his attitude back on track. http://www.nj.com/nets/index.ssf/2010/0 … n_lik.html
http://www.nj.com/nets/index.ssf/2010/0 … te_do.html
Hopefully this does not happen; what he really needs is a good coach that can bring out all of his best qualities. Winning only 3 games so far this season is taking a toll on T-Will as well as the rest of the Net’s team. I wish him the best!
T-Will to D-League?
I had just read this and was about to post it. Nice catch
If you told me before the season that in January there would be talks of the Nets sending T-Will to the D-League, I would have smacked your face. Let’s hope he can turn it around
