Amari Williams' Effort and Talent

He needs to play desperate around the rim like Arkansas did today. Arms flying everywhere to block shots, soaring for each rebound, contest everything!
 
He's just not a very gifted offensive player outside of his passing ability which is admittedly great for a guy his size.

Lacks explosion around the rim. Doesn't have good touch/feel. Can't shoot. He'll make good money playing in one of the better European leagues if he plays it smart.
 
Check back in tomorrow when he's missing layups or letting someone drive right around him like a light post.
He's one of the main reasons UK has had success this season. Just criticism is ok. Fair, not personal attacks. You are not much of a fan to say that about anyone, let alone a UK player. Get some perspective.

There is no discussing this when it has been stated that we would be a 2 seed without Amari. Life is too short.
 
He plays very weak for his size and strength. He's clearly very skilled but not much mental toughness. We need his passing due to Injuries but Amari has been serviceable n had so e moments but he hurts about as well as helps imo
 
I had read that he tweaked his back (not another injury) during practice on Thursday. Pope said that might explain his game Friday. Hope is is better todayl

GO CATS

Personal attacks? Lol... grow up. I didn't say his breath stinks.
 
I can handle ALMOST everything that comes along with Amari Williams. He has grown on me as the season has played out.

What I can’t handle is when he doesn’t use his length on defense, playing with his hands at his side while guards are scoring in the paint. Big guys that don’t look interested in blocking shots drive me insane.
 
Well... we won 1 tournament game with Oscar focused teams in 2 years. And you blamed the guy who wasn't on the court. Oscar was a nice guy, but put up meaningless stats. Was a siv on defense.

Maybe that's why he only dominates on G-League courts now.
One of the most critical parts of good defense is getting the rebound after the other team misses and Oscar was pretty good at that...

Thanks for proving my post true.
