His playing weight of 210 pounds was good enough during a two-loss season and a berth in the NCAA championship game, but the 6-foot-3 point guard knew he needed to slim down for the NBA. Projected as a top-five pick, Williams worked out for the Hawks at a slimmer 195 pounds on Tuesday at Philips Arena and seemingly impressed onlookers. After having dinner on Monday with Williams and going through interviews with him, Hawks coach Mike Woodson described Williams as "very professional, very serious about his approach to the game." "I think he knows how to play," said Woodson, who spent a frustrating first season trying to teach his young team just that. In addition to training in Houston, Williams also worked out with former NBA player Derek Harper and former Utah coach Rick Majerus. Williams said losing the weight was crucial to raising his stock. He said his speed and quickness had been questioned at 210 pounds. "I definitely think so," he said. "I think most of the NBA people, that's what they question about me. I think that probably contributed a little to why they thought I was slow and not athletic --- because I was so big out there." One day after working out another projected top-five pick --- Wake Forest point guard Chris Paul --- the Hawks certainly had reason to be tempted by Williams. Nonetheless, with their weakness up front, today's workout with North Carolina forward Marvin Williams and Friday's with Utah center Andrew Bogut loom large in their plans. General manager Billy Knight said the main purpose of the workouts is for the coaching staff to see these players in person for the first time so they can gauge size and athletic ability. In comparison, Knight said he has seen most of the top prospects play about 10 times in person. "It's hard to say what we're going to do," Woodson said of the second overall pick. "We've got Marvin and the big kid Bogut coming in. Then we'll evaluate which way we're going to go." 大意是Deron Williams为了增加他的速度与敏捷而减少了约15磅。效果似乎不错，跟Paul 的三分炮火一样让Hawks球团「印象深刻」，评价上升中。 不过之前在别的地方看到一个有趣消息，大意是说Williams之前在New Orleans的Workout 中回避了与Felton放对的练习，因为Felton可以用速度痛宰Williams。Williams则是回应 他不怕与任何人对决... --
