J-Will Gets 16 and 11 for Armor

Jordan Williams played his first game in the D-League Thursday night, scoring 16 points and grabbing 11 rebounds in the Armor's dramatic last second win over the Maine Red Claws. Williams started slowly, as did the Armor, coming back from an 11-point fourth quarter deficit.

With time running out, L.D. Williams slammed home a missed jump shot as the final horn sounded to break a tie game and vault the Armor to a 93-91 victory over the Red Claws inside the MassMutual Center. Dennis Horner, who was waived by the Nets to make room for Larry Owens, was at the game but did not play. JamesOn Curry returned from an injury but shot 1-for-11.

Hard to believe he got ejected for simply throwing the ball. If it were anyone other than Favors I’d assume he said something to the ref too

Refs have been a little off this season so far…lots of controversial calls.

he is a bust...

he was a bad draft pick…

by aug93 on Jan 20, 2012 12:46 AM EST up reply actions  

Cousins was clearly a better player….but Nets were drafting for the better trade asset.

You can sell Favors’ potential…Cousins trade value could’ve been affected by his attitude.

He is a bust? really?

We think the world of Hump, Favors could easily be a 12 rebound a game guy and a top defender. He is 20 years old lets see him when he’s 22-25

by nwkiddnj on Jan 20, 2012 6:32 AM EST up reply actions  

He's 20

how much offensive game did Dwight have when he was 20. 0

by o'neill 5 on Jan 20, 2012 12:44 AM EST reply actions  

extremely similar body types

not to mention at the pre draft combine, Favors eclipsed most of Howards #’s.

by o'neill 5 on Jan 20, 2012 12:48 AM EST up reply actions  

again

He’s 20 years old. How can you say he’s not gonna take the next step? He had one year at college. Whats your logic?

by o'neill 5 on Jan 20, 2012 12:51 AM EST up reply actions  

I dont know how he will pan out, my personal feeling is he wont..what makes you think he will?

IMO he sucks and is a bust, didnt want him when we drafted him..look at Brooks this year he is better than our 3rd pick last year..Favors career high with us was like 12 and he never effected the game for us.
King wouldnt have drafted Favors you can bet on that

by RandyOreens on Jan 20, 2012 12:54 AM EST up reply actions  

repect your opinion

however Favors is what is known as a project type player, really a boom or bust type. You won’t know exactly what you have until you get 3+ years in the league. Think about a guy such as Cousins. you knew exactly what you would get from him but his potential is limited. Favors on the other hand, has the athleticism similar to Dwight, was stronger then Dwight when Dwight first came out and had almost the same Vertical and reach. Favors Potential was greater then nearly anyone in that draft, excluding may John Wall. If given time Favors could shed some of the little baby fat, finish growing and add some serious muscle to an already solid frame. His game will be much easier to work on IMO just because he is soo teachable and is willing to do whatever to help the team

by o'neill 5 on Jan 20, 2012 12:59 AM EST up reply actions  

who knows

this kid reminded me of Jason Pierre Paul some what. Really raw but if you get him to click, its awesome and almost unstoppable but if you dont get all the things to work correctly he could turn out like Kwame Brown or Tyrus Thomas. Potentially worse

by o'neill 5 on Jan 20, 2012 1:05 AM EST up reply actions  

Maybe he wont pan out but how the hell is he a bust after 1 year?

Makes no sense. Not only 1 Year of NBA basketball but 1 year of college so 2 years of high level basketball and he is a bust? 2 years of high level basketball and is 20 years old AND didnt have a training camp. Way to early to call this guy a bust

man Utah is very likeable…i really like watching them play

I’ll be a hypocrite when Dwight joins us lol

nets have great fans IMO, but Nets haven’t really put together a nice team in yrs…

Jazz are competitive every yr.

i think

he started to shy away from contact and that took away from his driving ability, which was his best feature

by o'neill 5 on Jan 20, 2012 1:06 AM EST reply actions  

He just lost some physical ability as well he used to be super quick but has lost a step

im surprised how bad the conference is……

Superbowl or bust...

Jwill desperately needed this.

He needed to get himself in basketball shape and get his legs back under him. I have a feeling we’ll need some minutes from him later on this season, and I’d much rather see him on the floor than Petro.
