I love how both of them play, and it's hard for me to make a call on which one is better. Jameer Nelson definitely has the potential to become the premiere little PG in the league, and has a killer instinct when the 4th quarter comes.Marcus is more of a playmaker then Jameer, but his shooting is suspect at times (he's still a rookie though). Who do you take?
Tough to say. I guess Williams, but he's only in his first year, it's tough to say HOW he will pan out, just yet.
I would definatly take Jameer. I just love his game, and he has the capability to be a playmaker (even though he doesnst show it as much as he should), and he also is a very good scorer. Like prostix said, he really does well in the 4th quarter, and he is a pretty clutch shooter from what I have seen this year. I havent really seen enough of Marcus Williams, and that is mainly because he is behind Kidd, but as of right now, I would definitely take Jameer...
I would definitely take Marcus Williams. I just don't think that highly of Jameer Nelson. He's a nice player but he's never going to be a top 10 PG. I just think Williams is much more talented, a better playmaker and will with more experience be the a better scorer. Right now Williams is averaging 13 less minutes a game yet he only averages 1 less assist a game (3, to Nelson's 4 a game). And Nelson only averages 5 more PPG with 13 more minutes. I think Nelson is a nice player, but I just don't think as much of him as a lot of fans do. Clearly in a couple more years Marcus Williams will be the better player.
^ I definatly agree with BCB.. Marcus is probably a better shooter too, hes just more streaky, and doesn't get the minutes Nelson does.. and ofcoarse hes behind one of the all time greats, who can teach him a ton
