I-D-I-U-T- of the week


Doc Rivers is the idiut of the week for being a terrible judge of talent. The Celtics made a deal with the Knicks where a lot of players got moved. One of these guys was Bill Walker. I know the Celtics were thinking they were just dumping a guy with terrible knees who wouldn't get on the court unless it's in the D League, but he is for real. I've been saying it since he was at K-State with Beasley, he has star potential. He has a great midrange jumper and is decent from 3. Also, he has Vince Carter-like style when he dunks. Some people just know how to make a dunk look awesome without jumping 45 inches in the air. Bill Skywalker's got it down to a science. Back to Doc. How do you let a talent like this slip through the cracks? So what if he has a history of bad knee injuries. If he can still run and jump better than 95% of the NBA, is the perfect size for a shooting guard, can shoot, and is healthy, let him play! Mike D'Antoni lets him play, and he's averaging 21.5 points in the starting line up and is rocking the rim on the reg. Doc didn't like Walker's attitude. Did he think he was getting an upgrade in character by adding Nate Robinson? Idiut.

Just look at this guy.
