08:09 AM ET 02.07 | The returns of Michael Beasley and Martell Webster have cut Derrick Williams playing time in half, down to just over 10 minutes per game. [Williams] expressed concern over his limited role in recent games and indicated that coach Rick Adelman might have "a lack of confidence" in him. Williams, the No. 2 overall pick in the 2011 NBA draft, hinted at his feelings late Saturday night after the Wolves' 100-91 win over Houston when he posted this message on his Twitter account, @RealDWill7: "Anybody ever felt like a caged lion?" "I just want to get out there and play a little more ... everybody does, but I can't do anything about it," Williams said in reference to his Twitter posting after Monday's practice. "It's not my decision."

Or you can come to Charlotte, bro. Winning the #1 draft pick appears to be the goal.

Right, it's not your decision, it's your coach's. Just shut up and listen, rook. Work hard and do your job. And stop tweeting. You're embarassing yourself and, more importantly, your team.

Derrick Williams needs to sit down and Shut the **** up like your a Rookie, learn the game 1st, then ask for more minutes. If you wait your turn you'll be greatly reward, look at K-Love. Both he and Al Jefferson couldn't be on the court together, so they decide to go with the youngest player which was K-Love. So WAIT YOUR TURN ROOK.
