Ford's Blog - best athletes

[Peter Delevett]

I'm not especially concerned about Marcus Williams'
lack of athleticism as measured by these tests. I'm
much more impressed by the fact that he's averaged 8
apg the past two years against top-flight competition,
with a better than 2:1 assist:turnover ratio. 

It's not like the C's are chock-full of athletes to
begin with. This team needs a Steve Nash more than a
Chauncey Billups. (I wonder how Nash's athleticism
scores were, anyway? And for that matter, Jason Kidd's
not the most athletic guy out there.) 

Not that I'm necessarily putting Williams in the class
of those guys, but I'd rather add a pure PG than an
undersized, ultra-athletic combo guard like Foye ...
whose shooting percentages, incidentally, aren't any
better than Williams'.
