Deron Williams...In His Own Words

PrintChris Broussard asked Wednesday night if Deron Williams' visit to Barclays Center is "another sign that D-Will's warming up to idea of staying w/Nets?" Of course, that assumes he was cool to the idea, which one Nets insider rejects out of hand. "He was never 'cool' to the idea," said the insider with obvious disdain.
And since Billy King said a few days ago that people should pay attention only to what he and D-Will say, we've compiled some quotes from the NetsDaily files, starting with Williams' introductory press conference and ending with his Facebook message earlier Thursday, the one where he said Barclays Center "will be a baller's paradise". As they say in the restaurant business, "Enjoy!"
"I'm excited to be a Net..."At first, it was a little bit of shock, but after talking to (GM) Billy King, talking to coach (Avery) Johnson, and just seeing the direction that they want to go in and the vision for their organization , it just really got me excited about the possibilities of competing for a championship in the next couple of years...It’s definitely a change, and a challenge, but I look forward to turning this thing around and competing for a title.
"They're very ambitious in going after a lot of guys. I'm going to help with that as well."
"I can’t really give any assurances, or say that I’ll be here [because] I don’t know what the future holds. I look forward to the possibility of it; it’s definitely a strong possibility. It all depends on how the next year goes – the CBA, the type of moves we make and the people we bring into this organization."
--February 24, Introductory Press Conference, PNY Center
"I’m gonna look to recruit guys... Since I’ve been in this league my ultimate goal is a championship. I want that and hopefully this franchise is going in the right direction. A lot of things appeal to me. The move to Brooklyn and we have a lot of money to get marquee guys and bring some guys in here is definitely appealing to me."
--February 25, Interview with Evan Roberts & Joe Benigno, WFAN
"There’s a lot of stuff that appeals to me as far as my future here. When your owner says he’s going to spend the money and put people around you that’s definitely appealing. Hopefully we can start winning some games and that the owner has a lot of power to get some people here. That will definitely draw some crowds. I’m sure the move to Brooklyn will.
"I'm excited to be here and trying to lead this team in the right direction: toward the goal of a championship."
--February 28, Home Debut, Prudential Center
"Everybody’s been great, the team has been great, the coaching staff has been great. The whole coaching staff has been great, making my experience great so far..."I’m going to have to [turn into a recruiter]. I tried to do it in Utah. But it’s tough. It was a tough situation. You’ve got to do it. Guys have to want to play with you and hopefully they will. And I’m going to try and recruit some guys to come here and help."
--March 3, Interview with Sekou Smith, NBA.com
"[The Nets] are doing everything they can to get me stay here. The organization is great, the coaching staff is great, the players are great. Im having a lot of fun."
--March 16, Interview with Dan Patrick
"How can you commit to something you just got into? I just got here. I haven't even been here a month. How can I just say I'm going to stay here? That'll be great because that's what people want to hear, but I can't say that."
"You can definitely tell their objective is to keep me here. I've had a lot of good conversations. I met with Dmitry Razumov (Prokhorov's chief aide) and Mr. Prokhorov. They're pretty much keeping me in the loop.
"I've never been a free agent so, I mean, at some point I'm probably going to become a free agent.
"I'm going to need some help. We're going to need to get some other pieces."
--March 29, Interview with Stefan Bondy.
"I like this organization a lot. I like the direction they’re going. They made me and my family feel real comfortable since I’ve gotten here.
"I like Coach (Avery) Johnson — the way he coaches and the way he carries himself. I definitely can see myself staying here.
"We’ve had a lot of open communication in a short period of time that I really like. And just the organization in general, how they handle themselves from top to bottom. I think everybody has just been great here and I like how things are run.
"I would like to not have the distraction (of looming free agency) during the season."
--April 14, Season's End Press Conference
"It's cool to see the beams up. You hear about how it's going to look and how it's going to be finished. But it's good to come and see how the progress is. You can kind of start picturing it, what it's going to be like, see the layout of things. And it's good to see the area – I hadn't been to this area yet. It's different. This is in the heart of the city. It's kind of like the Garden. It's the same feel. It's special."
--April 27, Barclays Center Tour
"This place will be a ballers' paradise!"
--April 28 on Facebook, following Barclays Center tour
"We got the young pieces, but we need some proven guys, some veterans that have been around that have won. That’s what we are going to try and accomplish in the off-season ... I am all about winning. I’m not really interested in being on a team that’s going to try and rebuild for years and years".
--May 3, Interview with Cub Beunning, SLAM
"I'm definitely liking the organization. I'm liking Coach Johnson, and after numerous discussions with the organization, i feel they're going in the right direction... I think they know that. I think they knew that going into the situation...i think that's doable, especially now. In Utah, it wasn't as easy. Here once they move to brooklyn, thats definitely appealing to people, a new arena and the ownership. The owner is committed to winning. So it's a lot easier still."
--May 3, Interview with Scott Van Pelt and Ryen Russillo, ESPN Radio
"I like the prospect of staying here..."To be honest with you, we just have to get players. That's it. Everything else is great: the organization is great from top to bottom, the owner is committed to winning, committed to getting players. That's the bottom line. We have to get some players."
--May 3, Interview with Chris Carrino, New Jersey Nets
"It was definitely different. It caught me off guard when I got traded, and took me a little while to fit in. It wasn’t the best timing for everything to happen. But, since things have settled down, and I’ve had a chance to be around the organization, they’ve been great to me. They’ve made me feel really comfortable. I had a conversation with the owner, Mr. Prokhorov, and the direction he wants to take things in has got me really excited. I went and saw the site for the new arena, and how things are progressing there. There’s definitely some things that I’m looking forward to over the next year, and that will help me decide on what I want to do with my future after that.
--May 4, Interview with Zac Dubasik, Sole Collector
"We'll see. I'm definitely warming up to it and the organization has been great to me since I've been there and has made me feel real comfortable. I like coach Johnson and the rest of the coaching staff. I just want to win. That's my main objective. If we can get good guys in there and do something with the cap space that we have, then I can see myself staying there".
--May 5, Interview with Nicki Jhabvala, Sports Illustrated
--------------------
Also, Williams' agent, Bob McClaren has spoken about his client's excitement...
"He is certainly enjoying his time with the organization. They’ve been tremendous to him and they have a great plan for the future, and Deron feels like the best is yet to come for the franchise. His hope is everything will work out to everyone’s benefit and a great product will be put out to the fans.
"He has told me several times how excited he is and how they’re trying to reach this whole new market and trying to retain some of the past...I know Deron is hopeful all this can work out like everyone is hoping and planning. I think he wants to be a part of it."
--April 30, Interview with Howard Abrams, New York Times

Would you guys trade Petro, Farmar and 2nd for Green?
Lopez / Draft
Hump / Outlaw
Green / James
Smith / Morrow
Williams / Gaines
"I think I’m the best point guard in the league. No reason. I just think I’m the best.’’-Deron Williams.
Maybe
Green sucks, but that’s not giving up much and we’re getting rid of Petro.
He does suck, but I also doubt they'd do that trade. Maybe they'd do it for a 1st rounder in that case no.
2nd rounder ok, but no way in hell will he start.
Petro + Williams = Blueprint for success
Lets Goo Nets
I am confident more and more as the days go by that he is staying

Broussard tweeted if it was yet another sign that D-Will was warming up to the idea of extending w/ us.
Which would seem to assume he originally wasnt warm to the idea, he was ‘cool’ to it. But a Nets insider is saying he was never ‘cool’ ,or displeased, to the idea at all.
"You can spend minutes, hours, days weeks or even months overanalyzing a situation; trying to put the pieces together, justifying what would’ve, could’ve happened – or you can just leave the pieces on the floor and move the **** on."

On to the other moves
Damn they should have kept the draft on Saturday tho to me.
"We're not there yet, but we're going somewhere," Johnson said. "And we're going to Brooklyn. We're not going to contract. We're going to Brooklyn."
This is what it comes down to
“I can’t really give any assurances, or say that I’ll be here [because] I don’t know what the future holds. I look forward to the possibility of it; it’s definitely a strong possibility. It all depends on how the next year goes – the CBA, the type of moves we make and the people we bring into this organization.”

Especially after this Melo ordeal, my heart can’t take the excitement and then quick disappointment that follows. But in this case, there is reason to think this could be beneficial for all parties involved, including Howard and whoever his management team is (not sure if it’s CAA)

We have a choice. We learned our lessons with Melo-drama…Prob the BIGGEST WASTE OF TIME.
We ended up with D-Will out of nowhere :)

WHEN YOU DESCRIBE the prototypical NBA center, he is not complete without superlative size, strength and athleticism. He’ll fight for the tough rebounds in the trenches, but is just as quick to burn you with a shot from 15 feet.
Johan Petro possesses all of these skills and more, and at a mere 23 years of age, he bears all the promise of fulfilling his vast potential.

i seriously do not want to speculate and scroll through hundreds of comments, thoughts, fanposts, rumors, out of context interviews, etc on dwight. my head still hurts from the previous two years

i get so excited when i hear
Deron and Dwight in the same sentence
WHEN YOU DESCRIBE the prototypical NBA center, he is not complete without superlative size, strength and athleticism. He’ll fight for the tough rebounds in the trenches, but is just as quick to burn you with a shot from 15 feet.
Johan Petro possesses all of these skills and more, and at a mere 23 years of age, he bears all the promise of fulfilling his vast potential.
It's very premature to gush about Dwight being on this team.
I mean, if he does come, the latest could be after another year of basketball.

LMFAO
WHEN YOU DESCRIBE the prototypical NBA center, he is not complete without superlative size, strength and athleticism. He’ll fight for the tough rebounds in the trenches, but is just as quick to burn you with a shot from 15 feet.
Johan Petro possesses all of these skills and more, and at a mere 23 years of age, he bears all the promise of fulfilling his vast potential.
no need for that...

Writing a paper, but I have it on in the background.
Doesn’t look happy. Paused for a long while when asked about how (and if) this team can improve. Said he won’t address the future.
Something along the lines of: “no need to talk about it, all I can do is worry about being as good as I can be, regardless of what team I’m playing for. Right now, it’s the Magic.”
My swag Jehovah Witness, dude, it never take a holiday.

Can DWill just say
the Nets and myself have an agreement in principle and I will sign a contract on July 18th (the first chance he gets I think)? Otherwise, it doesn’t matter how great this arena is or what he says, that all could change if we don’t win next season if he isn’t signed.

LOL, I remember hearing and interview with one of the screenwriters of Notorious
Who was his biographer and did several interviews with Biggie when he was alive, and hung around him.
The guy thought it was funny that critics said, “It was so unrealistic. This incredibly gifted rapper just sits around and raps. Where was the toil? Where were the scenes of him in the studio writing and re-writing? Ridiculous.”
The screenwriter then said, “But that’s what Big did. Dude literally just sat around for hours listening to the beat, not writing anything. Then he would get up and spit. It was magic. I was in the studio, I saw it.”

i mean, as nets fans we see it differently
in reality the nets are an afterthought in NY

it is what it is, the proof is in the pudding with the TV ratings and attendance numbers

i liked these parts
Why Howard would like it: Williams is one of the most unselfish point guards in the leagues. The thing that makes him great, however, is that he can score when called upon. He’s not a one-dimensional ball-handler, which allows Howard to have some off games.
That would be the deal of a lifetime. I’d pull the trigger on that in a heartbeat. They could have another pick or two if they want as well. Deron and Dwight could be a lethal combination. As someone who remembers how good the Nets were in the early and mid 2000s, it’s great to see the team relevant again when it comes to acquiring stars.
So

There is no price too high for Dwight
I’d be willing to give them Brook, Hump, Morrow, anything and everything who is not Deron.
The Knicks show you can’t do anything with 2 stars and a gutted team, but Deron and Dwight are TRUE superstars who both play defense, one of whom is the best defender in the NBA for 3 years straight. That changes things
I've already
made arrangements to sell your soul as well to acquire Dwight

Did you not watch the game last night?
Those guys couldnt hit any shots. JJ was wide open.
Now you are suggesting we include one of the two guys on this team that can consistently hit a three. If it is a deal breaker, I could understand but he shouldnt be included in the initial offer for Howard.

It’s just Crazy to me that as “TEAM” the only GUY ON THE “TEAM” is the guy who hasn’t played 20 games and has been here three months and still hasn’t signed an extension.
A little loyalty for some of the young decent promising players we do have would be nice as a fan base. Brook, Hump and Ammo is the Core of what we have. And they are all coming into their primes and are very good in their areas of strength (Post Scorer, Rebounder and shooter)
I’m sure players will be stoked to come to a team that’s fanbase never sees them more as trade chips for other guys.
