Jason Williams was a phenom. The NBA was so much fun to watch back then. He was truly underrated as a PG. You want to talk about court vision...He was light years ahead of 80% of the players during his time. I can only think of 2 players who could succeed him, 3...Magic Johnson, John Stockton, and Steve Nash..And he could light you up from beyond the arch. So glad he won a ring as the starting PG in Miami along side Shaq and D. Wade.

[@andri0141]

[@sniff270]

He’s actually over rated.

[@JohnDoe-rs3oh]

Sniff No, he was actually underrated for when he played in the early 2000's. Go ask all his teammates he's ever played with, they will tell you the same thing. Even many players that he played against will tell you the same. Jason Williams could drop dimes like the best of them. He was one of the best at dropping dimes that ever played the game. He's in the top 100 (83rd) of all time for a reason. Also, just image if he played today, he would be even better, because players today look to score first, he could dish the rock to even more of his teammates, and not just a few of them. #FACTS!

[@dingfeldersmurfalot4560]

I first saw him when he was young in his career, in a documentary. He practiced in a gym at al hours, and dribbled with gloves on so he couldn't feel the ball as well, but just needed to do it anyway. He took shot after shot at points on the gym wall for hours. Crazy relentless practice hours and work ethic and creativity. I couldn't help but admire the heck out of that story of working so damn hard. And to think that ... it actually paid off! He's such a small guy, and wound up in the NBA competing at top levels! I love the guys for his hard-work ethic, and also for his huge court sense, like Magic Johnson, Wayne Gretzky, et al. Guys like this FORCE you to play better, or the ball will just pass by you while the whole nation and your mom are wondering WTF is wrong with you.
