timvp- Williams > Langford?
The only thing Williams has on Langford is height which makes him a better NBA prospect. That however DOES NOT make him the better player.
Man, McAllen is one ugly place!

Marcus Williams is a stud. In less than 5 years, he will be an all star. I just hope it will be with Spurs.
Go ahead. I had to leave early and missed a lot of the good stuff.
Toros make it two-in-a-row against Vipers

AUSTIN, TX - Marcus Williams scored 10 of his team-high 32 points in overtime to help lead the Austin Toros over the Rio Grande Valley Vipers 125-114 in double overtime Saturday night at the Austin Convention Center.
The Toros won for the second night in a row, stretching their home win streak to a franchise record 10 consecutive games.
After blowing a 12-point lead in the first half of the game and trailing for most of the second half, the Toros forced the first overtime on a jumper by Cheyne Gadson with 12 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter.
The Toros overwhelmed a depleted Vipers squad plagued with foul trouble and outscored Rio Grande Valley 17-6 in the second overtime period.
Williams, who scored six of his ten overtime points in the second overtime period, closed the door on the Vipers with a put-back slam dunk to push the Toros ahead 120-112 with 1:16 remaining.
Austin finished with six players in double figures including Cheyne Gadson, who finished with 28 points and six assists. Ian Mahinmi, finished with 14. Kenton Paulino and Kris Lang both added 13.
The Toros improved to 12-4, the best record in the NBA D-League. With the loss tonight, the Vipers fell to 9-7.
do you guys know?

Reminding everyone Marcus Williams no longer belongs to the Spurs. Anyone can call him up, right?
Yes. We'll see if he or any of the other players get any interest at the MLK Showcase - all the games there will be
on NBAtv, btw.
IMO Spurs need to sign this guy as soon as Manu and Barry both make it back from their injuries.
I understand he probably isn't ready to contribute right away, but the Spurs obviously saw enough in him to draft him just this last year, and if he keeps playing well the Spurs just might not get the chance to see him fulfill his promise fplaying for them.
I have some problem seeing exactly how he would fit on a Spurs team. He definitely has skills, but on the whole its an unusual skill set that doesn't seem as easily integrated as that of DerMarr Johnson or Keith Langford.
Worth keeping an eye on though.
The deadline for Langford and Johnson is coming. If I had to guess something, I would say that both will be waived (Langford on Monday and Johnson on Tuesday). At least one should be waived and it will be interesting to see who will come back in Austin.
