Williams is very athletic. Watch the highlight video put out yesterday to see what he can do.

One problem has been his handle. He hasn't done any of those amazing dribble through everybody and dunk on someone drives that make you say wow. He was far more likely to turn it over on dribble penetration. If he could tighten his handle, it wouldn't surprise me if we did start seeing that type of play from him.

The other problem has been his decision making. I attribute this largely to JB, but we'll see. Williams has seemed like a far from instinctive player most of his career... Somebody suggested JB might have been forcing square legs into  round holes, and Williams is a perfect example of that. Any time Williams made a mistake, he'd hang his head and head to the bench for his whooping. Playing free should help him a lot.

I think the coaching change will help Williams more than any other player.  And I'm ignoring any scheme changes when making that estimation. If Red puts in a scheme that is less focused on isolation and has more movement, Williams should be helped even more.
