    I don't know yet, it's too early," Jason Kidd said, then paused and added, "He (Sean Williams) runs the floor like Dennis Rodman. That's the guy who might come to mind right now."</p>

    </p>

    Kidd wasn't saying Williams is the same player as Rodman by any means. He just noted that there is a similarity, mostly in the way Williams bolts up and down the court. And Williams, who led Boston College in blocked shots all three years he was there, clearly has a knack for the swat -- just as Rodman had a knack for dominating the boards. -- <font color="#000000">Newark Star-Ledger</font></p>

    People Sean reminds me of:</p>

    Kenyon Martin
    Tyson Chandler</p>

    I think Sean's more athletic than those two (not having knee problems really helps him out here). Cultivating and refining a mid-range game will really set him apart too.</p>

    Oh I don't know about Wallace. Sean has relatively no jumpshot range, and is a much better shotblocker who relies on post ups for offense (and recieving assists) rather than wing-oriented play.</p>

    I don't mind the Rodman comparison. Just as long as he doesn't act like Dennis. We all know how fun that will be.</p>

    Dalembert - but with better fundamentals and slightly less rebounding ability.

    I agree that he is alike Rodman, not big size, but his explosive are very impressive than Rodman.</p>

    Hemust to be next Rodman or Big Ben, if the Nets want to win their first title.</p>

    Sean Williams is nothing like Rodman, which the original article makes very clear so people don't think Jason Kidd is an idiot.</p>

    I believe Kidd said that he "runs the floor" like rodman. he also said that Mile Ilic passes like Vlade and that this was the most talented team he'd ever been on. From now on I'm taking any Kidd quotes with a grain of lsd. I'm beginning to think that Jarkid is Kidds media consultant.

    ...(taken from actual phone conversation)</p>
    Kidd: Jarkid, baby, what's cookin? Hey look, I'm commin up empty on what to say after practice, was wondering if you had any material..</p>
    Jarkid: Ok, keep to going JasonKidd, let me see...hmm.. Oh, I have the idea, tell them the Sausage Lips sucks!</p>
    Kidd: Hm, um, no. I mean for one, he's my friend, and that's a borderline racist comment, NEXT-</p>
    Jarkid: Ok, Ok..I'm just getting warm up JasonKidd </p>
    Kidd: Pick it up Jars, I gotta get back to practice.</p>
    Jarkid: Ok, this one you love: King... Jefferson</p>
    Kidd: -uh</p>
    Jarkid: just think about it</p>
    Kidd: -I, um</p>
    Jarkid: He is bigger than LeBron James.</p>
    Kidd: -sorry, no, it's just not poppin baby.</p>
    Jarkid: (silence) Well.. I already tell you Collins suck... </p>
    Kidd: ...</p>
    Jarkid -Antoine Wright is Kobe Bryant!</p>
    Kidd: Whoa- baby, your losin me-</p>
    Jarkid: I have it!! Sean Williams explosive is impressive than Rodman.</p>
    Kidd: Golden...Aw thats butter. Let me write that down. Ok. Gotta go. </p>
    Jarkid: JasonKidd, you only call for quotes, no more just to talking-</p>
    Kidd: -Who loves you baby? Huh?</p>
    Jarkid: ....jasonkidd</p>
    Kidd: That's right</p>
    Jarkid: But I like to talk about offense</p>
    Kidd: -CLICK.................</p>
    Jarkid: that *** hung up on me?</p>

    A lot of teams will kick themselves for not picking Sean in the draft. I myself watched him at BC and knew that he was a beast. I was hoping Celtics would pick him. lol</p>

    He reminds me of Samuel Dalembert, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. If Dalembert didn't have a peanut for a brain he could be a tremendous player.</p>

    When I compared him to Dalembert it was a compliment.</p>

    I like Dalembert. He is a productive player who is not afraid to use his superior physicality to make things happen.</p>

    Unfortunately for him, he started playing basketball far too late and he will never be able to see the game slowly like players who have played since they were very young.</p>

    Williams started playing late, too. He also has less experience than most NBA players. He has more potential to be really good than Dalembert, though. It looks like he was well-coached before it was too late.</p>

    NBA comparison? I'd say more athletic and better scoring version of Theo Ratliff. He has very good touch and body control inside. If he could improve his shot mechanics and become more comfortable with his moves, he could be scary.</p>
