Say what you want but this guy was fun to watch, especially in his younger days. In my eyes he had it all when it comes to game, just some things off the floor may have got in the way sometimes. But had to feature White Chocolate's game in the series.
I agree, but one could argue that he surpassed max expectations cause he came out of nowhere, and even his journey to get to UF was.. unprecedented, to say the least. This guy has one hell of a life story. Salute to him, and yourself JC.
Great video. I actually played against him at the University of Kentucky summer basketball camp. (Useless info: Randy Moss was also there at the football camp going on at the same time). He was a cool dude back then. All these years later I'm not ashamed to say that he clowned me on the court, he had me looking like I had roller skates on. I had no idea who that white kid from West Virginia was. Taught me never judge a book by it's cover At least I don't feel so bad looking what he did to guys in the NBA😅 Even though I had a good overall camp that led me to being recruited by Billy Donovan when he was at Marshall, I always laugh thinking about how everyone was talking about "who the hell was the white boy from West Virginia?!!!"
He didn’t invent the elbow pass, it wasn’t created on the fly. That move is a NY streetball move, however that doesn’t take away from Williams’ greatness. He was must see TV, which is really missing from today’s game. Great video💯
Exciting career he had crazy court vision exquisite handles and blazing speed and quickness . I honestly think if j will was a 16 (pts) & 11(ast) 1.5(stl) type player he would probably have made a few all star & all nba teams and possibly a hall of famer It’s amazing that he didn’t win an assist title
My favorite player ever. His first year was must watch and we did. Some of the things he could do were mind blowing. Never made an all-star, but he’s a legend in his own right
I thought that he had Van Exel’s scoring potential, but he was nowhere near as strong. For someone who had no business in the league he did alright for himself. I remember another hooper, Brett Nelson was supposed to be the second coming but he crashed out.
Coach Hubie Brown asked Williams to be a more dependable PG. Williams agreed and you can see his turnovers went down his 4th season onward. The downside is that he wasn’t as fun to watch. Really what coach Brown probably said is knock off the street ball.
I agree with everything said in this vid except thar he was the 1st you can easily say pistol pete maravich was the same player but better shooter. But played with the same flare.

What 😂😂 what do you even mean by that?? I been watching ball 30 years and Jay was way better then both dudes you just said but still confused about Jeremy Lin and Ricky Rubio to white folks
@@ronnielister1023 All 3 had a little bit of "swag" about them. White Chocolate had waaaaaaay more then the other 2. And less fundamentally strict when he first came in. That's what I mean my guy
