Williams offered up a plethora of opinions while watching the Team USA men's basketball squad eek out a 101-100 victory over South Sudan in exhibition action on Saturday.

He gave South Sudan their props while also taking Team USA to task for their lackluster performance.

"Ok South Sudan came to play I see," Williams said during the contest.

As Team USA struggled to pull away from their African hardcourt nemeses, Williams decided to share his honest thoughts.

"USA looking like they went out last night and didn't take this game seriously," he said.

Lakers superstar LeBron James crossed up a South Sudan defender and scored the game-winning layup late to secure the close victory.

Williams believes Team USA will come to the court more prepared the next time they play their overmatched adversaries.

"USA didn't win this game, Sudan blew it," Williams wrote. "Surprisingly good game though. I'm sure USA won't take them lightly next time they play."
