I liked this kid but I guess the Lakers finally got a big man they had to have after AD trade in Hornets Mark Williams

Knecht was great at Tennessee and had shown a lot of promise so far in his rookie season with the Lakers with key minutes

Lakers Cam Reddish also part of the deal

Wish they would've traded him for Scoot Henderson for about "40,000" reasons.

This was a surprise but if you've seen Mark Williams play this is actually a very good trade for the Lakers. Mark Williams is also very young so the Lakers got themselves a Center that could be a part of a championship team for a long time.

Mark Williams is a poor man’s Deandre Ayton.

Been watching him his whole career since Duke days.

He was having a career year at Charlotte but he reminds me of a typical diamond dozen big who will go out and get you 12-14 points and 9-10 boards a night

Williams biggest problem is for a guy his size, and with his huge wing span, he’s not the defensive force you think he’d be

Hate to be that "guy" Jay but not sure if you're writing it like that for effect, but it's actually "dime a dozen"
*I uses to think the phrase "for all intents & purposes" was actually "for all intensive purposes" until I saw it in print.

I just used it once or twice to mess with @jjgold who has routinely used the phrase for years
