What's up with his stock falling so much on nbadraft.net? The guy has a very versatile NBA ready offensive game with a great all around scoring game, good rebounding skills for a swingman, solid court vision and passing, and he has very good ball hnadling skills. His only big weaknesses are he has bad body strength, free throw shooting(which has improved a lot since the beginning of the season), and he lacks motivation on defense sometimes. I don't understand how he isn't a lottery pick still.
Maybe cause this draft class is so stacked? This is one of the best drafts in recent history (of course besides the 03 one). I'm pretty sure only 4 of last years lottery picks would be lottery picks this year: Barganani (sp), Aldridge, Tyrus Thomas and Roy. Marcus Williams seriously lacks wheight and strength - you can tell just by looking at him - and he isn't quite as big as fellow skinny man Tayashun (sp) Prince. Plus (this isn't a huge factor, but still his team lost in the first round to some school called Purdue that was one of the worst teams to get into the tournament.
I have yet to so Arizona play this year, but obviously looking at the statistics, he's a hell of a player, not to mention Lute Olsen pumps out tons of good/mature NBA players. I just think Williams falls in the draft because there's a lot of size. I think NBADraft.net has him too low though, I mean, below Arron Affalo, Nick Young and Marco Belinelli? I don't know about that.

Arron Afflalo is a hell of a player, but he's a senior and has two more years on Williams....Williams is the better talent, clearly.
This is a great fit at the 2/3 spot for the Wizards. I'd really love to see him join us being backup for DeShawn and Caron. This is the one player I'd really really love to see the Wiz draft.

And now Williams is ahead of Afflalo on nbadraft.netEdit- And now they have Nick Young all the way up at number 9. I don't know what the hell is up with that.
