The velocity on those passes is unreal! He was having a ball out there. You can tell how much he loves the game. I was thrilled we he got that ring with D Wade.
When he was a kid he would wear thick, heavy work gloves and practice passing the ball against a wall for hours. Over and over, trying to increase his velocity.
Corry S Yes, indeed. That expression on Gary "The Glove" Payton says it all. That was a big time move on one of the best defenders to ever to play the game.
with all due respect Pistol Pete Maravich, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson etc never did any around the back elbow pass while looking off to the crowd yelling Wooo ! and winking. If they did please provide me with video or proof they ever did. They were similar players. Jason Williams was a one of a kind passer/entertainer. He was not a great player, but he is one of the greats..
He was 10 years too early. Today he would've been a perennial all star and averaged close to 15 assist with the way the games played today. Before his time.
Amazing JW. Not just on the court. But off the courts also. His Humbleness as a human being captivated me. Has no ego whatever. I deeply believe, he had a good upbringing. Bless his parents❤️🙏 But that crossover & elbow pass though.... is just insane!.
He was 10-15 years before his time. If he played in today’s NBA, he would be a premiere All-Star, especially if you put him on a team like Philadelphia or Minnesota
Zac Grasl lmao stop. He was flashy and exciting to watch but he was never close to being an all star. It’s funny how you idiot casuals watch highlight reels and think he was carrying his team. He was a solid player and very fun to watch. He’s a great dude too, but not an all star. Even in today’s nba
Daymmm he didn’t say he wasnt a winner. He just said he was nowwhere near an allstar which he is right by saying. He was a solid backup pg who had some good highlight reels but thats it.
I miss that king's team. So much talent. White chocolate with all those crazy passes and assists. Vlade divac, chris Weber, doug Christie peja stojakovic jason William's etc. Such a fun team to watch
I started watching the NBA in 1970 when I was 12 yrs old. I'm 61 now and I'll tell you, I've seen a lot of players but when it comes to point guards I've never seen a point guard more exciting to watch than Jason Williams. I'm a huge Magic Johnson fan but Jason is the man.
I saw Maravich play life in college. 44pts a game with no 3pt line. GReatest passer and ball handler I ever saw. But Jason was damned special. I saw him play for UF and beat a UK team with little help in Lexington the year they won the National title.
I‘ve watched #3 a thousand times and it NEVER gets old! He was one with the 🏀 and there are things in life you can‘t learn, it‘s a GIFT! Legendary Williams 👌
I think great passers in the NBA are a lot more exciting than dunkers or shooters. Pistol Pete, Jason Kidd, Rubio, Nash...I see more creativity in the passes rather than the dunks. Just fun to watch.
+Richie A To me his face looks more like a cocky smirk, kind of a "Okay, little man, that's one play, but let's see who makes All NBA and the HOF, and who doesn't". And that would make more sense than "respect", given how cocky we all know Payton to have been.
all the people talking about his turnovers are just hating. that didn't stop him from constantly being picked up by so many teams and him staying in the NBA. he not once had to play overseas or in the d-league. you know why because he produced. stop fucking hating.
+Marcel King He cut down on his turnovers after leaving the Kings. With his ball handling skills and ability to score, he probably could/should have been a multiple all-star. Injuries and an insane style of play until he was older probably screwed that up. I miss the old Kings and old Mavs playin' with run and gun and a new showtime. When no other teams could score 100 ppg.
TheRealMVP No, what I was trying to explain is ...HE MADE IT! regardless of him switching from team to team he still was in the NBA where the elite go and never once dropped to D league or played overseas. You just don't stay in the league unless you're worth watching. That was the point I was making. Some dudes weren't even getting options to be traded, they were just given the "heave ho"
Ah got it. I agree, however what I was trying to prove is that he isn't as good as people say. He was no joke for sure, but some people are like "he's a top 5 pg ever". And those are the ones taking it too far.
I agree im a 5”6 white boy or “cracker” on the court lol and ive played like him since like 2014 bc he amazed me an now everyone wants me on their team on pick up games 😂 dude is legendary
@@nathjohn3158 basketball is a team game, not a individual. That's why he's considered one of the best offensive players to step foot on the court. He brought a whole new style to the game, finding new ways to get assist etc. Basketball isn't like the way it was back then, but I'd say he is perfectly rated where he is enough know about him but not everyone like Michael Jordan or Steph
Holy shit, those passes were absolutely off the chain. Then he's doing crossovers and going behind the back on some of the best players in the game, like Stockton and Payton, beating them to the dribble like it's nothing. J-Will was one of a kind.
He may never go down as being one of the best players ever, but there's something about his skills and the way he presented it in game that nobody else seems to be able to do it like he did. It's kind of like how Vince Carter made dunking look so much better than anyone else ever did. I think Jason Williams had the sickest skills of any NBA player in history.
+Guy Forget is weird, i feel like he was sooo bad that hes sooo good, never seen any player like him lol. some of the plays he did id question sometimes haha
Don’t get me wrong Jason was as entertaining as they come but imo he wasn’t hall of fame worthy. He was inconsistent, turned the ball over a lot and also had injury issues later on, plus Mike Bibby was clearly better when he replaced him.
The early 2000s NBA was awesome and had a street ball influence, A.I, Steve Francis, Stephaun Marbury, Jason Williams & Jamal Crawford to name a few really had an exciting element to their game.
If you don't list KOBE, Nash, mike bibby, tracy mcgrady, TParker It's excusable to diss Pelé the flopper wasn't even 3rd best player on his team, Duncan, Parker, Kawhi or Stephen Jackson were all better!
Ever heard of Greyson aka The Professor ? He is one of the most well known Street ball player and he is white. Well, Jason Williams is The Professor in NBA
J-Will and his energy will always be one of the highlights of my time in Sac. I watch Curry today and I see J-Will’s influence. There are many that try, but few, even among the greats, could take it to his level of handles.
Gary Thompson yeah instead he was facing guys like Gary Payton, Shaq, Michael Jordan, Karl Malone,Allen Iverson and David Robinson. You sound ignorant right now idiot
I remember when he first came to the league he was appointment television. He would have at least 5 to 7 dazzling plays a game. I remember when they got rid of him for Bibby I believe and he went to Memphis and really cut down on the flashy plays and became a solid point guard. He then came to my team the Miami Heat and really blossomed, Many people don't remember but that back court of him and Wade was statistically one of the best in NBA history for efficiency.
He was traded to Memphis for Mike Bibby because they believe that Jason Williams was not the one who would bring them to the NBA Finals. Well everything worked out. Jason WIlliams has a championship ring for the Heat along with Gary Payton and Antoine Walker. What an irony it was for Mike Bibby.
I can give you CP3 during allstar games or Curry when the warriors are really ahead in a game. But even then, I don't believe either has tried anything close to #2. I'm not sure why you even included Westbrook or Drose in your list because while they are good players they're not so much known for their passing skills. Irving and Lebron have their moments with the pass, but they make the simple pass; efficient, effective, but still nothing like what Jason used to do on a consistent bases.
Nnamdi Martian meh, only paul and curry do those kinds of flashy passes.the best westbrook pass i've seen was an idiotic-looking no-look pass.derrick rose and irving arent really known for such passing.lebron, as pointed above, make simple passes.
Everyone's too scared to be outside the box, besides as much as you guys say you love it. Majority people would criticize the hell out of anyone trying this stuff today, he'll white chocolate used to get a lot of bad press. People hate anything outside the norm or what they don't understand.
It makes me upset that when people talk about some of the best PGs/ballhandlers, this guy's name isn't brought up. Jason "White Chocolate" Williams was one of the reasons I was proud to be a Sacramento Kings fan in the late 1990s/earlier 2000s. This guy should be in the top 10, if not the top 5, for best ball handlers and passers.
He did it with such refinement & conviction.. wouldn't they have said the same thing about pete marivich if street ball was a thing in the 60s,70s? His brilliant "end-all" was the execution. You rarely saw him throw a behind the back pass into the stands.
basketball is entertainment thats why its better to watch NBA 90's and 2000's where era of great player has born compare now where drama is included and money of course..this man has a talent of Kyrie dribbling, Curry's shooting and i cant mention someone on New Era of NBA can pass like him
I agree, players now have already begun their passing motion before looking away. Jason Williams will be looking one way and then pass in the opposite direction WITHOUT moving his head.
Imagine how good Jason Williams could've been if he wasn't traded to Memphis. If he stayed with them through 2002, he could've been the missing piece of the puzzle to get them past the Lakers.
I didn't like it at the time but Bibby really was better for that team and more consistent. If there was a 10 worst plays of Jason Williams countdown it would look pretty brutal.
Sergio_Zavaleta Streetball guys always look a lot more effective on highlights than they were. He was a good player, buy wasn't very efficient. His best seasons, he was only averaging 5-6 assists a game and about 12 points. And that's playing 32-33 minutes a game. So he was a flashy passer, but not actually a great passer.
People don't talk about him, because for every play like the ones in the video you can find 100 of him completely fucking up. He was a very unimpressive player.
AriHiroki Peter Griffin Yeah, the best Kings team was 2001-02 after trading Williams for Bibby in the 2001 offseason. I live in Sacramento and from what I recall JW had a history of disappearing in the postseason early in his career.
That elbow pass is absolutely ridiculous this guy is something else
He is the only one who did a pass like that. It would be awesome if Jason got an assist from his elbow pass
No one tried to do afterwards...explains the genius of it
He did it again back in 2012, this time he got an assist because of Pippen. m.ua-cam.com/video/YZ-AQsceYAs/v-deo.html
YT Anonymity but the guy got fouled so they earned points from that pass regardless, if he made the ft that is.
And he aimed without looking with that elbow. That's some crazy ninja shit
The elbow pass is honestly one of the greatest plays in NBA history. So smooth with it
the best part is that it's barely noticed the other guy didn't score.
It really ain’t. The play isn’t significant to anything. It’s an all star game
Imagine if Vince Carter was trailing
watched him in a video discus it. he said " I tried it like 10,000 times and was only successful maybe 2, just the two you've seen". thats wild.
@@jtjt4827 Yo, was gonna say the same.
This is the closest we will ever get streetball to being in the NBA. His passes and plays are legendary. White Chocolate is a legend.
Dont forget the only street ball legend to play in the NBA, Skip-to-my-lou aka Rafer Alston
Yeah I remember Rafer. Very good traditional point guard at Rockets.
Jason Williams , Ai , Rafar Streetball
Streetball is gutter sport, full of ethnic bullshit Streetball???
jamal crawford must disappeared?
The velocity on those passes is unreal! He was having a ball out there. You can tell how much he loves the game. I was thrilled we he got that ring with D Wade.
When he was a kid he would wear thick, heavy work gloves and practice passing the ball against a wall for hours. Over and over, trying to increase his velocity.
That look on Gary Paytons face tells you all you need to know. Once a opponent...who's a fierce one gives it up to you. You know you've arrived.
Corry S And when that opponent is The Glove, you know you've arrived high.
Corry S Yes, indeed. That expression on Gary "The Glove" Payton says it all. That was a big time move on one of the best defenders to ever to play the game.
MPmike B did y'all notice that GP also tried to trip him on that Cross over? Gary Paytons a grimey dude for that one lol
Corry S Oh yeah, I didn't see that at first. I guess G.P. tried to break his ankle since J-Will broke G.P's on that crossover move. LOL.
Corry S My kind of player. Gary Payton could defend just about anyone. He was gettin just a little long in the tooth in that highlight.
I am not a basketball fan and Neither I play it. But this is pure art and so beautiful to watch.

Ben Force' He's not calling him black, he saying almost "Thats my guy"
White. Chocolate.
This guy should have been as famous as anyone in the NBA. Raw talent.
Harmed in the making of this video: John Stockton, Steve Nash, Iverson, Reggie Miller, Gary Payton. He was doing this against greats
Don't forget Dirk going for his fake while coming with the help.
Phillip F didnt take no prisoners, killed them all, the end
？、あp.a'う」」」
He split Coach Hornacek and Stockton with that move @ #9
One of the most exciting and underrated points in NBA history. Phenomenal passer of the ball.
One of my faves. Pure magic this guy was 💪🏻😤
Dude's passing skills are phenomenal!
I remember when he first came to the league he was appointment television. He would have at least 5 to 7 dazzling plays a game. I remember when they got rid of him for Bibby I believe and he went to Memphis and really cut down on the flashy plays and became a solid point guard. He then came to my team the Miami Heat and really blossomed, Many people don't remember but that back court of him and Wade was statistically one of the best in NBA history for efficiency.
+nomibe2911 When he was on the Heat he had to years where he was statistically the most efficient point guard since John Stockton in his prime.
He was traded to Memphis for Mike Bibby because they believe that Jason Williams was not the one who would bring them to the NBA Finals. Well everything worked out. Jason WIlliams has a championship ring for the Heat along with Gary Payton and Antoine Walker. What an irony it was for Mike Bibby.
AI and Williams definitely brought a new dynamic to the game during their careers, a more free form than conventional style. Love it.
I miss him
3:02 the glove's smile sums it up :D
That ELBOW pass! DOPE!
No one even dares to attempt something like this anymore
Chris Paul, Stephen Curry, Kyrie Irving, LeBron James, Russell Westbrook, Derrick Rose
I can give you CP3 during allstar games or Curry when the warriors are really ahead in a game. But even then, I don't believe either has tried anything close to #2. I'm not sure why you even included Westbrook or Drose in your list because while they are good players they're not so much known for their passing skills. Irving and Lebron have their moments with the pass, but they make the simple pass; efficient, effective, but still nothing like what Jason used to do on a consistent bases.
eatcheesekobe DRose did have an insane mid air fake pass tho, but I still agree with you.
Nnamdi Martian meh, only paul and curry do those kinds of flashy passes.the best westbrook pass i've seen was an idiotic-looking no-look pass.derrick rose and irving arent really known for such passing.lebron, as pointed above, make simple passes.
Everyone's too scared to be outside the box, besides as much as you guys say you love it. Majority people would criticize the hell out of anyone trying this stuff today, he'll white chocolate used to get a lot of bad press. People hate anything outside the norm or what they don't understand.
It makes me upset that when people talk about some of the best PGs/ballhandlers, this guy's name isn't brought up. Jason "White Chocolate" Williams was one of the reasons I was proud to be a Sacramento Kings fan in the late 1990s/earlier 2000s. This guy should be in the top 10, if not the top 5, for best ball handlers and passers.
See the smile on Payton's face..precious!
The Kings is awesome at that time, J. Williams, Webber, Christie , Stojakovic, Divac. I miss the NBA at that time too.
Tmac, VC, The Answer and Kobe at their best... Daaamn, golden ages!
Aaand today there's lebron.
I miss this NBA. Grown man basketball, the hard foul era.
Chiko!
Sup who's this?
+Chiko was here john cena
And his name is JOHN CENA!!!!
+Chiko was here the best era
Payton face was priceless
mans was truly ahead of his time, a real life 2k player
Yea I miss dude he was fire.. SOUTH CENTRAL NATIVE OUTT.. love that Gary gave him that look but respect at the same time..
Then later they got a ring together
plus77mann HAHA.. YEP..
1:07 I remember people trying to imitate that pass in elementary school, still legendary
Even The Glove was impressed in the end.. :-)
Yeah, and he's regarded as one of the best perimeter defenders of all time.
The most entertaining player to ever play basketball!
Finally a video of Jason Williams.
Lo vi en vivo en aquella epoca ...
Y recordarle es un gran sentimiento Basketball al 100%!!!
Damn. I must learn that elbow pass.
This guy was so much fun to watch.
brought the street ball play to the nba courts.. not many can do it.. especially a white fella.. props white chocolate
The same reason that the NBA and its journalists ostracized him during his entire career. They claimed he was "bastardizing" the game.
He did it with such refinement & conviction.. wouldn't they have said the same thing about pete marivich if street ball was a thing in the 60s,70s? His brilliant "end-all" was the execution. You rarely saw him throw a behind the back pass into the stands.
basketball is entertainment thats why its better to watch NBA 90's and 2000's where era of great player has born compare now where drama is included and money of course..this man has a talent of Kyrie dribbling, Curry's shooting and i cant mention someone on New Era of NBA can pass like him
@@dragking9735 Curry shooting? He was a terrible shooter
you could tell glove was salty when the white boy shook em
Adam Barett that shxt had me weaaaak!! lololol
Adam Barett salty..... he smiled, that's respect.... you make your last name salty with that comment
Adam Barett “White boy”, huh? What about those black boys he juked
The Dude what..
WavyyShotzz Black Boys son
When you cross Gary Payton, you're good.
beyond being good
even stockton got doped by his moves
That smile the Glove gave him though
And they are teammates and won a ring in Miami.
He was Absolutely Incredible!! Even today his Play is Next level!!
This is the LEGIT no-look pass. The shit that players do now is turn their head the last second..
actually point guards like rondo and cp3 do plenty of legit no-look passes
I agree, players now have already begun their passing motion before looking away. Jason Williams will be looking one way and then pass in the opposite direction WITHOUT moving his head.
Number 2 was just... just beautiful. :'(
Imagine how good Jason Williams could've been if he wasn't traded to Memphis. If he stayed with them through 2002, he could've been the missing piece of the puzzle to get them past the Lakers.
He was traded for Mike Bibby.
I didn't like it at the time but Bibby really was better for that team and more consistent. If there was a 10 worst plays of Jason Williams countdown it would look pretty brutal.
Imagine how good he could be if he wasn't a stoner. Smoking weed isn't worth that playmaker skill.
er, bibby was a better player overall. White chocolate had the razzle-dazzle but Bibby was better for the team.
Ernest101au true story, too bad most people rather get high
You know you're doing something right when you leave both Stockton and Payton baffled at the 3P-line
2:57 Payton grimey ass tried to trip him
I saw that too
They were grimey times.
U do that against someone unguardable.
@@samphimm8253 jwill wasnt unguardable.
how come I never hear people talking about this guy?
Sergio_Zavaleta new generation
Sergio_Zavaleta Streetball guys always look a lot more effective on highlights than they were.
He was a good player, buy wasn't very efficient. His best seasons, he was only averaging 5-6 assists a game and about 12 points. And that's playing 32-33 minutes a game.
So he was a flashy passer, but not actually a great passer.
Cj M in his best season he was averaging 15 points and 8 assists. I agree that he looks better in highlights but he was pretty good player too.
People don't talk about him, because for every play like the ones in the video you can find 100 of him completely fucking up. He was a very unimpressive player.
sbaum82 that was his game... unexpected but as he got older he was smarter with the ball in Miami so what are you talkin about
He was fun to watch, and he was an effective starting point guard for a decade. Not too shabby.
Met Jason and he was down to earth and nice. Thought he was gonna be like a little Eminem type guy so wasn’t expecting the sweet nature of him
The way he dribbled, passed and played with his kings(best Kings squad ever) teammate was sick! Closest to pete maravich
Best Kings squad was when they got Mike Bibby instead of Jason Williams, not tryna take anything away from Jason, phenomenal player to watch.
AriHiroki Peter Griffin Yeah, the best Kings team was 2001-02 after trading Williams for Bibby in the 2001 offseason. I live in Sacramento and from what I recall JW had a history of disappearing in the postseason early in his career.
Yes he traded to memphis for bibby. Then the sacramento lakers rivalry started
