Deron Williams is still getting used to life in the big city.
The Nets point guard, who was raised in Dallas, explained the difficulties of living in New York with four kids in a recent interview with Resident Magazine.
"I'm not going to lie," Williams said. "I don't really feel so much like a New Yorker. I grew up in an apartment in Texas where you could send your kids outside like, 'Yeah, go play in the sun.' Here it's more challenging.
"The process of getting them into school is a nightmare. Even private schools where you pay are an ordeal. In Utah, you just send your kids to the first public school in the area because they're all great."
Williams was drafted by the Jazz and played the first five and a half seasons in Salt Lake City before being dealt to the then-New Jersey Nets. Williams signed a five-year max deal in the summer of 2012 to become the face of the franchise as it headed to Brooklyn.
"In Utah, you just send your kids to the first public school in the area because they're all great," said Williams, who has an apartment in Tribeca.
"Truth is, we enjoy getting away from the hustle and bustle and going back to Utah every summer. It's a relief to take that timeout. No traffic. No crowds. My daughters still have their friends there. There's a big backyard.
They go to the pool; the playground and they jump on the trampoline. Kids running wild and free here…? I don't think so."
Well, at least Williams enjoys riding the subway from time to time.
"What constitutes a New Yorker?" Williams asked. "Taking the subway… which, by the way, I love to take. … Yes, of course I have a chauffeured car, but the subway is way faster. Second thing is the New York/Brooklyn accent – which I don't have. Third thing is New Yorkers are tough. Or at least they think they are."
