Wholly crap! This guy can can leap.
 
lol. I love how every dunk there's not a defender around. The few shots in game action are these finger rolls that'll get swatted in the NBA.

That's funny I thought taking a hit in traffic and finishing with a soft touch were a good thing. A few would require goal tends to stop and on most he got body contact fouls. Either way he's putting points on the board. Dunking in traffic doesn't happen as often as it used to. I remember in the 90's you could count on several a game. Now it's one or two with all the steroids, zone defense and packing the paint.

Man this board needs to back off the ledge. Not you in particular Mook, I tend to agree with your analysis although not necessarily this exact time. Just saying people seem to be typing from warm baths slowly filling with the blood of their open veins...
 
Yeah Mook... usually not a lot of defenders around during warmups are during dunk contests. :lol: There are plenty of other clips other there of him dunking over people.
 
Sorry--that came off more sarcastic than I meant. I just hate mix tapes that show a guy throwing down all kinds of stuff in warmups, and never using it in games.

Understood. I wasn't trying to show show he will be all that with us... he may never play a game... but for shooting guard (PG wanna be) the kid has some hops. I am looking forward to seeing him in summer league if he is going to play.

I think we should get one thing perfectly straight. I wouldn't even call him a wanna-be, Williams is a straight up two guard ... he might end up quick enough to cover both positions (and he seems to have the length and size to defend the two) but he's even more of a 2 than Bayless.

You just summed up my impression of John Wall.
 
Damn these kids and their hippity-hop music!
 
I'll admit...I've never seen him play before. He sounds like he can create his own offense and has NBA athleticsim and length. I've always felt the team needed an understudy to Roy, to basically assume his role when not on the floor. I'm expecting Bayless to be that guy next season. Maybe Williams can claim the role, and we can dangle Bayless for an upgrade elsewhere.
 
I wonder if he could be a Brandon Jennings type player with freakish athleticism and can dunk. That'd be nice. I wonder if he can shoot the ball, too. I'm excited to see him and Babbit play in the SL.
