the pick you trade for:

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Moo2K4 @ Jan 29 2008, 01:27 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>See, I've always liked Marcus Williams and thought he was a huge steal for the Nets a couple years back. I think he's got some great vision and pretty solid instincts. While things aren't spectacular at the moment, it should be understandable since he doesn't get all that much burn. I think once his PT goes up, you'll start seeing how good he can be.</div>
Yea I guess it would be good to give him significant PT over the rest of the season to see how good he is. I am just a huge Rose fan, I think he has way more upside than Williams, which really isn't a shot at Williams as it is a testament to Rose's talent.

 

I think Rose has more potential as a scorer in this league while Marcus has more as a true PG. I look at Marcus as basically a lefty version of Jason Kidd and with a better shot. Marcus is more of the player that's going to look to make his teammates better before he worries about getting his own. Now I'm not saying Derrick Rose isn't going to be that type of player, but I look at Derrick Rose more of a Baron Davis, a guy who will get his teammates involved but also look to get his own a lot more often. So really, while they play the same position, they play opposite styles, so it's really not a fair comparison.

Someone like a Chris Paul, Deron Williams.
