[quote name='cpawfan']When Marcus Williams is the backup PG, Cleaves has a chance[/QUOTE]</p>

Agreed, but I'm certain Marcus will improve from last season. He just hit that rookie wall mid-season, and never recovered from it. Now that he has more a feel playing in NBA, so I don't expect it to happen, especially if he wants to make a name for himself. </p>
Kidd does stun Williams' growth, but Marcus has the opportunity to see what it's really like to play the point guard position. To learn from one of the best, will only make him excel, so for his own sake, he better be taking notes. </p>

Williams' summer performance was discouraging. </p>

I don't think any one really takes summer league games serious. Often good players struggle, for example, Kevin Durant. However, Marcus Williams did finish with 16 ppg, 6.0 asts, 4.2 rebs. That, and 4.8 turnovers.

It was that his actions did not match his words in terms of taking defense seriously. </p>

</p> yeah, but you can't make judgements so quickly based on summer-league play. maybe marcus didn't really take summer league seriously...and maybe we should just wait till the season starts to judge marcus's defense. who knows, maybe it was just a summer league thing.
