Vince Williams - NBA Thread

if Vince was the 30th draft pick in 22-23 the contract would have been
yr 1 $1,828,300
yr 2 $1,919,600
yr 3 $2,011,300
yr 4 $3,630,400 (club option)
yr 5 $5,445,600 (player option UFA)

majority of the points you make are all still valid

Yep. I don't disagree with 90's points, I would just note "largest guaranteed contract offered to a player on a two way" and "full market value" are not necessarily equal. Regardless, I'm certainly not crying any tears for Vince - I'm looking forward to him hopefully having a long and productive NBA career.

I dont understand why you are splitting hairs here. I said “For perspective Vince’s contract is about that of the 30th pick his draft year.

The key word is “about”. I didn’t state exact. Even if I did, my point was this isnt a bad contract for Vince as a 2nd rounder and even if he was a 1st rounder which he wasn’t he wouldn’t have done much better. Remember the club did not pick up Laravia 4th year..

Vince K
Year 1. 2, 232, 308
Year 2, 2, 120,693
Year 3, 2,302,587
Year 4 2,469, 762 (club option).

Vince’s contract proves my point. His contract given you numbers is about the same but better. Remember Mr Geode was pissed and feeling sorry for Vince. I pointed out that his misgivings were misguided. A first round guy is only guaranteed 2 years. Year 3 and 4 are team options.

The data you provided does nothing to refute my original statements.

I literally never said any of that

Both players are considered gametime decisions on Friday.

Vince Williams Jr.'s long process​

Nothing has been quick about Williams' recovery. Between a left patellar tendinitis that halted his 2023-24 season on March 8 and a stress reaction before the season, it's been eight months of rehab for the chance to play.

"I got a lot stronger in that time," Williams said. "Honesty, just being with the guys helped a lot. The supporting case has been good."

Williams feels confident about what his body will allow him to do on the offensive end. One of the biggest question marks after his latest injury will be his agility.

Williams thrived as an on-ball defender last season because of his ability to slide his feet and force players into tough shots. He said the agility is the biggest thing he wants to see from himself when he's back on the floor.

"I feel like I been doing a pretty good job in that area," Williams said. "I'm still working on it. Everything is coming along, though."

Game time is 10pm tonight.
 
Vince looks a bit rusty on the offensive side, but defensively still a menace.
I am glad to hear his D was in tact. Vince and the world knows he makes his money on D.

His deep ball and free throw shooting weren’t all that good but other than that his stat line was good. Especially for a younger guy coming off injury (his practice is limited).

He was 4-5 inside the 3, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 blocks. Just shore up the deep ball. 0-4 and the free throws 1-4, get a steal and he is all good. I think if he can stay healthy he has a great season.
 
Vince is in, griz vs bugs (I mean nugs),, 1st quarter, second he gets in deandre jordan with a Vince related (defending) Tech. Vince actually wasn't involved with why the T was assessed but he did break up the near scuffle with aldalma. Vince doing the suffocating D thing.

And edey is a large large man again, today.

VInce with a downtown 3, cannard follows. Lets Go GRIZ

Testing, testing, 1,2,3...
from a couple of days ago (but his game last night was better, he was stronger, faster, and his assists are downright like straightup cannonfire):



EDIT: works like a charm! Thank you @MattRock master of all things code, and so much more!
