Lou Williams

[YoSixers]

One of the few positives for the Sixers this season so far is how well Lou Williams has played. Everyone was really worried coming into the season about how Lou Will would handle the starting PG position when we got rid of Andre Miller. Well, I know it is a small sample size, but so far Lou Will has outplayed Miller.

 

17.2 ppg, 5.6 rpg, 5.2 apg, 1.6 spg

Shooting 52.6% from the field, 33.3% from three point land, and 84% from the line

He has really made me eat some crow. I didn't think he was ready for it yet, but he's taken full advantage of this so far. Could end being a MIP candidate.

[Diesel]

He is the MIP of the league right now and is playing like a very good starting point guard. He is certainly showing the front office they made the right move. Not only is Lou Williams style a better fit for this team, but he is playing better than Andre Miller. Here are Dre Millers numbers as well

3.0 RPG

Lou's rebounding has been something really impressive IMO. He is playing much bigger than his size similar to what Jason Kidd and Rondo do. I would still like to see a more consistent three point shot.

I made him from all my negatives of my sayings toward him last year, he heard it all.
