Deron Williams Drops 57 on the Bobcats

The Nets took a huge risk by acquiring Deron Williams at the dealine last year because there’s no guarantee he will want to remain with the team beyond this season. The Nets have failed miserably at trying to build around him in an attempt to convince him to stay, or to lure Dwight Howard. Either way, Deron isn’t going out without a fight. Just ask the Bobcats.

Deron Williams scored a franchise-record 57 points to lift the New Jersey Nets to a 104-101 victory over the Charlotte Bobcats on Sunday night.

 Williams, who came into the game averaging 21.7 points, shot 16 of 29 from the field and was a perfect 21 for 21 from the free-throw line.

 Williams broke the franchise’s previous mark of 52 points, shared by Mike Newlin and Ray Williams. It was the second-most points scored against the Bobcats, one shy of Kobe Bryant’s 58 in 2006.
