From Alex Kennedy:

Shawne Williams is training at @IMGAcademy. Check out this awesome dunk from this afternoon's pick-up game. vine.co/v/blUbnADtUXV

It is hard to believe he is only 27. He might be worth a camp invite.

Kennedy also said Williams looks great and has been training hard.

Shawne Williams would be a great addition if healthy
DurzoBlint @ 6/14/2013 9:20 AM
the ONLY thing good about him right now is that he'll likely come cheap. Everything else he NEEDS to prove on the court or he'll likely be out of the league soon.

Extra E is out of the league with all kinds of problems.

Can he make it back? I would expect he'll get a look by the Lakers as he had his best success with MDA.

I doubt we give him a look. Signing him was Walsh doing a favor.

ShawnE Williams.

I think we'd give him a look for the vets minimum. Especially if we can't keep Cope.

I think he's in Dolan's ever expanding list of enemies and traitors. He wanted to join us last offseason for the minimum and we showed no interest. I'd love to have him back.

no, he was told to give us some time to finalize a few other deal first. He decided HE couldn't wait which, I don't blame him for. We were likely only going to offer him one year while I think the Nets had offered him more than one.

Anyone look into why he bounced out last year?

He signed with the nets 2 seasons ago, had a foot injury (think the same as Kurt and Sheed), so was out the whole season. Got traded to the Blazers and cut, not sure whta happened last offseason, but I do remember he got arrested for possession of cough syrup again during the season, so maybe he had drug type issues going back to the injury plagued season.

He got busted for drug possession I believe attempt to sell....in Memphis if I'm not mistaken.

He'd be smart to go back to for a year and get another inflated contract. He can certainly hit the corner three, but that's about it

After he smoked in his car the odor was noticed by a police officer. He had a roach in his ashtray and was arrested for it. He also had codeine cough syrup that was not his prescription.

Berman reporting Williams will workout for the Knicks next week.
Vmart @ 6/22/2013 10:10 AM
If its between Williams and Copeland I would resign Copeland. If it wasn't for Woody his number would be a lot better than they were.

According to his agent, Happy Walters, Williams will work out for the Knicks in the coming days, and a source said the workout will be Monday. The Knicks are trying to add more scoring pop to the roster at the small-forward position now that Carmelo Anthony is viewed as their power forward.

why do we need him back when we have novak and copeland, unless this is insurance in the event we do lose cope.

I also think we have much more pressing matters at other positions
