How Much is Winning Worth to Mo Williams?

ESPN's Marc Stein reports Milwaukee guard Maurice Williams is prepared to take less money than the Bucks would pay him to play for the Heat.

Eschewing free agent cash for a winning situation isn't unheard of -- Grant Hill did this last week. But for a young guy who's made only $6 million in his career to date? This is Mo's best chance for a big contract -- if he signs for four or five years, he's starting at the wrong side of 30 when his market again arrives.

I know we're supposed to be all for 'winning over money' and all that noise... but Mo needs to look out for Mo. Six years and $55 million is a lot different than five years and $36 million. Take the money.
