Or maybe he just lacks the Alpha mentality. If u just told him "attack attack attack" the rim, and try to flush EVERYTHING, maybe that gets him going. Who knows at this point?
Williams gets stripped way to often when he tries to dribble penetrate. His best skill is three point shooting, when he's in rhythm with his feet set. Dribbling isn't his strength. Anything more than a couple dribbles and drink type actions are a turnover waiting to happen.
Plays I'd like him to make:
1) Set the pick, Receive the ball on the pick and pop for threes
2) Set the pick, Go to the basket on the pick and roll
3) When off the ball, cutting to the basket and through if he doesn't get the ball
4) Coming around double screens for open threes
3 and 4 are kind of the same thing. Taylor should be doing the same thing. Both seem to have trouble getting open, and more movement and more picks is the answer. If they're running back and forth off each other, one of them is going to slip free from time to time.
My wishful lineup for short periods right now is McLeod, Williams, Bell, Taylor and Mintz. I'd just like to see if Mintz can run an offense designed to get other players open threes.
Mintz can always be the safety valve if we haven't done much until under 10 on the shotclock. Then he can just beat his man and get fouled. Offense is easy
