i'm really liking what I read about marv williams. for a buyout, he'd be useful
The Hornets reached the playoffs that season, and Williams averaged 11.7 points and 6.4 rebounds while shooting 40.7 percent from 3 at nearly five attempts per game. He proved to be a reliable and capable perimeter threat for the team. With then center Al Jefferson mandating the inside, the Hornets found great success with Williams in spreading the floor for other shooters.
Defense:
Two years ago, Rick Bonnell
recalled former head coach Steve Clifford regarding Marvin Williams as the “quarterback of the defense.” This is presumably due to his incredible basketball IQ. Having been in the league for well over a decade, Williams has become well aware of the way NBA offensives are run.
As a result, his overall understanding of certain plays and coaching philosophies has made him a “great” leader on the defensive end, especially towards the younger players. Over the past few seasons, Williams has taken in young players on the Hornets like Jeremy Lamb and former player Treveon Graham and tried develop their skills on the intellectual side of the defense. From on-court demonstrations to analyzing the game film off the court, Williams has established himself as a great veteran presence for the younger players on the roster.
Fit with lebron:
Williams has strictly been a spot-up shooter throughout his NBA career. Besides cutting inside, he rarely creates his own shots for himself, especially from the perimeter. This is the reason why the majority of William’s offense comes primarily on the feet of the ball handler during that specific stretch.
That’s why he and point guard Kemba Walker has had a great relationship over the past four seasons. The chemistry between the ball handler and shooter has grown to the point where Walker knows where Williams wants the ball without ease. As a result, the two have become great pick-and-fade partner
