The Trail Blazers' next move with Robert Williams is clear as day

The Trail Blazers need time. Time to develop. Time to get healthy. So, it's a little ironic that the player GM Joe Cronin should be most urgently trying to trade the man known in NBA circles as 'Timelord'. His name, Robert Williams III.

Williams is not a bad player by any stretch. He's a decent backup center on a decent contract (an affordable, expiring $13.28 million). Any team looking to make a playoff run this year would be lucky to have him. At least, as long as he's healthy.

Staying healthy has been Williams' biggest struggle over the past few years.
