Raptors' Williams takes questions on Twitter, offers honest answers
NBA Sixth Man of the Year Lou Williams appears to be Boomin' out in South Gwinnett as he awaits free agency this summer, but he took an hour to answer questions - as he put it, "good or bad" - on Twitter Saturday.
The result was some pretty candid takes about the Toronto Raptors, coach Dwane Casey and some of their fans. For instance, on teammate Tyler Hansbrough:
@TeamLou23 Why does Hansbrough act like that crazy white kid in school with anger management problems that everybody stayed away from?

That's not an act. Lol he's really crazy. https://t.co/5lOraQqCDC

Some of the fans attacked Casey, something Williams rebuked.
@TeamLou23 why is casey so stubborn? Fans called him out and he responded with "I know what I'm doing" and gets swept

That's true tho. He knows better than you guys do. You couldn't do his job and neither could we. So let him do it https://t.co/o3HXqbe4lM

On the topic of fans, Williams was honest about some of the team's fair-weather supporters who jumped on the Raptors' bandwagon in the wake of their success and the "We The North" marketing campaign that involved his buddy Drake.
@TeamLou23 worst thing about Toronto?

The new fans. Some are genuine. Some are super band wagoners. I hate it https://t.co/jNQR81v8WF
