Umm, you have a PG rotation of Brian Roberts and Austin Rivers. In the frontcourt, you have Anthony Davis playing with several guys who will have to fight to stay in the NBA. What's hard to figure out?

These teams have looked poorly coached for 2.5 years and everyone simply said it was talent. Now we have several playmakers, and you want to focus on the PG position. Who is starting Roberts so much? Please tell me? If he is so horrible, shift players around. Hell let Gordon play the 1 and Evans can shift between the 2 and 3 with Rivers and others giving time at the other.

You can't simply praise him when a nice run happens and ignore everything else. This team with Jrue was still 0.500 most of the season. To get into the playoffs, they need to be at least 0.600, so I seriously doubt Monty's PG options right now is the sole reason.

I think it's really hard to say if Williams is learning or not. The problem isn't when he runs out of options and is forced to use whatever talent he has left. The problem is when he does have options. I'm actually scared to think what he'll do next season when everyone is healthy again.

Will he move Evans back to the bench? Will he force Evans into an offball role like earlier in the season? Will he run his offense through a back up? I think there will be a lot of questions that needs to be answered.

Williams has certainly bought himself another season. With the current development pace of Davis, I don't think any GM in the league would fire him right now.

We're just going to have to wait and see if Williams can evolve form this season. It'll be an important season for both him and the team next year.
