I agree with Jeremy that we should have Cunningham on Williams instead of Bomberry and also would prefer Cunningham on him instead of bumping Kennedy or someone else down. The main reason for that is the height differences. I've seen plenty of footage of Williams simply acting like he doesn't have a defender right on him because the height difference is so severe that he is still able to shoot perfectly despite there being a body and stick right on him. Cunningham has a somewhat comparable height to Williams, maybe 1 or 2 inches shorter, and his speed actually looked pretty solid against Kraus. I wouldn't say Kraus dominated his match up against him at all. Cunningham did a good job of forcing poor angle shots when he dodged from behind. The goal to tie it up was more on Porter than Cunningham imo, since it was a low percentage shot from that angle. Williams will not be as fast as Kraus and also doesn't really utilize quick direction changes or finalizer moves. He's more of an Oshae Brissett style dodger, if you will pardon the bball comparison. Leans in and goes in one direction and uses his size and strength to create space. Works a lot better in Lacrosse than in basketball Oshae!! A Canadian like yourself may have picked the wrong sport!
