Also Williams is a workout freak, and is leading as example even as a freshman.


I think Williams is going to be the tone-setter for this team and will be damn near impossible to keep off the court. He plays with the same type of fire that Wade coaches with. It will, at times, get him into some trouble on the court (dumb fouls, skirmishes, etc). But you will never have to worry about his desire.

Reid has always looked like a Chris Webber type of player to me. Big guy with seemingly effortless skill. Because of that though, he sometimes plays with a lack of effort. If he's determined he can be a force. If he's lazy it takes away his advantage over most players. My hope is that Williams becomes the leader of the frontcourt and Reid feeds off that energy.

From your comments and a few others that I've seen, this reminds me a little of the Shaq era. Waters is like CJ, the offensive PG as a Frosh on a team lacking enough talent around him.

Then he gets a bunch of studs to join him as a Soph. Reid has skill and size (Stanley Roberts) but Williams (Shaq) may end up being the best of the bunch.

Throw in a bunch of other talented young guys (like Maurice Williamson, Harold Boudreaux) and it's probably not a stretch to think the 2018-19 team is the most talented team since those days.
