That shriek of joy you just heard was our main man Nic reacting to the news that Eric Williams is going to work out for the Celtics. Sure, it doesn't guarantee that Williams will have a spot on the roster, no matter how much we want him. However, it is exciting.
Williams is, as far as I am concerned, a Celtics legend. Don't agree with me?
He was blind in one eye. He led a life of unspeakable crime before finding basketball fame. He was a classic "tweener" that actually worked out- he played defense and rebounded like a bloodthirsty maniac. He launched a clothing like honoring the Negro Basketball League, which never existed. The best part of Eric Williams, however, was that every three pointer he made seemed completely improbable, yet he drained about a million of them during the Celtics' amazing playoff run in 2002.
We love Eric Williams, and let's hope that he either makes the team or the franchise lets him retire as a Celtic. Then, he joins the coaching staff, and when the team is ravaged by injuries in the Eastern Conference Finals, he rips off his suit and starts boxing people out and launching set shots like it's 1958.Source URL: http://ledger-heath.blogspot.com/2007/09/eric-williams-back.html
