Message: [QUOTE="Dave85, post: 4038798, member: 3946"] The thing about Melo is there were stretches where he would make shot after shot to the point where your jaw would drop. He was the epitome of the "go-to guy" in all the years I've been watching Syracuse basketball. I think the best comparison would be Kris Joseph as other people have said. Williams ability and style driving to the rim reminds me a lot of Joseph. And Williams seems to be able to knock down outside shots. At this point in the comparison, I think Kris Joseph was probably a much better outside shooter than Williams currently is. If we are going to do comparisons at moments of time I think Williams is more athletic than Joseph was when Joseph was a Freshmen. If Williams takes the infamous Sophomore leap next year then he certainly has the potential to become a Melo-like "go-to" x-factor type player capable of winning a national championship with the right supporting cast of players.
