08:00 AM ET 05.12 | The Post has learned that Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov will be with GM Billy King and Deron Williams for CSKA Moscow's semifinal Friday against Panathinaikos. With Williams famously set to explore free agency this summer -- and with his hometown Mavericks, fresh off their four-game sweep at the hands of the Thunder, expected to be the primary challengers for his signature -- the fact that he's spending time during the offseason with King and Prokhorov can only be seen as a good sign for the team's chances of keeping him.

I'm sick of Williams already.......if that is, he's really having troubled thoughts on as to why he should not sign with the Nets........Really? Second thoughts......

It goes further back for me. He forced out Jerry Sloan. Period. You listen to Popovich and Doc Rivers, they swear that Sloan was the best coach and had Williams been on the same page, the Jazz wouldve become contenders again. At one time I wouldve traded Rondo for Williams, no longer, I wouldn't trade a second round pick for him. I hope he makes another mistake and ends up on another losing team. For me the Hated list starts w/ me-bron and then Williams then Artest and that other thug Matt Barnes.

If he signs with the Nets you will indeed get your wish that is, of a losing team. You are absolutely 100 on both Metta and Matt, true thugs in every sense of the word. Its just an embarrassment that Metta is a native of NYC.

Watch him go to the Lakers via a sign and trade for Bynum and Session. All sides will be happy!

That will go over like a fart in church

That's just crazy. Sessions is doing a pretty decent job running the point. Bynum is someone hard to replace. There's a reason why they didnt even include him for the CP3 trade because the Lakers know his true value.
