White chocolate one of the most entertaining players ever
mad handles
him and penny
i think having d wade jason williams and gary payton on the same team was unfair...they would give Steph klay and livingston problems..lol...Steph may be better than j will but wade is better than klay and gp could shut shaun down and outplay him...wow...what a fun matchup that would be ...i got the heats backcourt..posey on kd walker Shaq zo haslem derek anderson shannon andersen doleac kapono..what a team
Obviously
T jass
Sacramento J-Will was arguably the only player ever that was able to combine the street ball game with the NBA game successfully.
Skip to my Lou wasn't the same Skip that was on the AND1 tour. We never really got to see THAT Rafer Alston in the NBA.
Jamal Crawford is another one too, but J-Will's showmanship was on another level.
IbTusPeter he was a mess of a person but Marbury too
Baron Davis and Stevie Franchise. Steve Francis overdribbled the fuck out of the ball + jumped off the fckin buildin.
IbTusPeter You're absolutely right ! ...Crawford and Kyrie are definitely in that conversation as well...but Kyrie and Crawford do it more on the offensive end getting buckets for themselves, but most of White Chocolates moves were passing the ball to setup teammates for buckets, like Magic and Pistol Pete.
White Chocolate was definitely And1/NBA and made it work on that all pro court. He probably would've been in the ABA back in the 60s and 70s. #Beast
Kyrie Irving kemba walker and pistol pete
It is awesome how White Chocolate and Randy Moss sound EXACTLY the same.
They played ball in high school together
I’m aware of that, I just think it’s funny how they sound EXACTLY the same 😂
West V!
it's because they're the same person.
They both graduated together from DuPont high school in West Virginia!
The OG White Chocolate
The OG guard to do it first was "Pistol Pete"
When AND1 and NBA decided to have a child.....White Chocolate was born!!!!! 🐐
LMFAO- THIS IS THE PERFECT ANALOGY
White chocolate and D wade the reason i became a heat fan. Love this dude!!!
Rico Boi oml bro
me too bruh!
funny how he wade gary payton were all on the same team...and won a ring..j will was a beast vs the pistons...and mavs...gp saved game 3...d wade closed out game 5 and 6..people think klay curry and klay are lethal..this.big 3 in the.backcourt was savage sneaky lowkey
Wade the man
its so crazy to me that these guys era is being referred to as old school it makes me feel old has hell i grew up watching these guys play to me old school NBA is still bird, margic, barkley, jordan, stockton , Zeke all those guys is true old school
Andre miller is out the league..that makes me feel old..i been watching him since 2000 lol
One day, before we know it, there will be kids talking about those years like 80s babies talked about the Wilt Chamberlain days.. we know it happened but so long ago, we dont even think about it as real. Smh.
Old school? 😅
I remenber the Bad Boys and the battle that Michael Jordan had to fight against them.
I have Tim Duncan and Kobe as the last superstar, i know 😂😂😂
Jason Williams pulls up to the cookout on the regular.
Only OG fans will remember that man on the left. The one 2000's PG star that was loved by the all-stars. For anyone who talks about his handles and how turnover prone he was, please look into his turnover assist ratio. Even the great passers of the past and present average between 2 to 4 assists per one turnover; Jason sits at a nice 2.81, quite close to 3.
people remember j will more than capt jax cause of his years with shaq and wade ...he won a ring
Stacks won a ring in San Antonio although I remember him in Golden State. Him, BD, Monta and J-Rich with Don Nelson coaching would light your ass up on the scoreboard.
Young dudes need to youtube this dude fast. One of the nastiest white boys to ever do it. Dude had a street/hood/AND1 style ball game.
Sorry. I'm too busy watching Lebron highlights for the billionth time.
100% Truth!!!
TheRealtalk617 AMEN
ua-cam.com/play/PLjqtqv55w3DZ2E38SStoj9Y2Vw-tMfJpa.html
Skip Payless not that white cholcolate isn’t great, but Larry bird can do all these moves and score and has chips
Living legend. Poor young kids
no one remembers how loaded the 06 heat were....j will d wade twoine posey shaq haslem zo the glove derek anderson shannon anderson doleac and kapono ..what a roster ..dorrel Wright was out all year and it didnt matter
Kings shuda been patient with him. Hubie Browb killed his fancy game in Memphis.The irony is that he won a championship as the starting PG for the Heat and Riley actually wanted him to play like he did for the Kings.
Joseph Daniel Batino for good reason. Pat coached Magic Johnson who also played risky passes and decisions but more often than not, it payed off. Plus it was entertaining too
The truth. Every team Jason Went to got better. Sacramento, Memphis, and then Miami. Kings should have held out. He was the only player on that Kings lineup to start on a championship team.
Actually Pat routinely gave him shit for his antics, and if he got too wild with it, Pat would bench him. I'm a life long heat fan. Knew those teams very well.
Bro maybe but Mike bibby was no joke and Bibby took the kings to the next level who helped the kings compete immediately. We all know if it wasn't for that rigged game 6 in 02 the kings get a ring
Like J-Will but Bibby was a better player overall and great shooter
He talks like the guy from Tokyo drift lol
Rayshon Jones Lucas Black
cause he black u bling lil nigga
Lmfaoooo
Rayshon Jones
He from Rand West Virginia. He played with Randy Moss in high school
Lmfao I was tryna process who he sounded like in my head. You right
White chocolate definitely one of those nba/ hoop legends. Another name people should look up is
SKIP TO MY LOU.
JusBeeChannel Fax Rafer Alston.
JusBeeChannel rafer used to sell me lean lol
RAFER ALSTON
Never forget 1998. White Chocolate and Vince Carter made the game fun again, doing things that no one had ever seen before. The ironic part is the two players from that great class that are shoo-ins for the Hall of Fame are Dirk and Pierce, two of the least flashy rookies from that year.
this dude was the truth
"Pistol Pete Jr."
White chocolate one of the few who get the invite to the bbq and the hood pass..definitely left me with a lot highlights to remember
T MAC JOIN THE BIG THREE!!!!
NOOOOO!!!! He looks way out of shape in shirts now.
Gifted Images LLC paul Pierce always been somewhat out of shape and still got buckets in his prime
Him and Steve Francis was my favorite to watch back in 2000's. Both had crazy street ball handles.
& Baron von Davis
White Chocalate needs to be a HOF just because!!!!
why tho? I mean, I was a big fan of him, but it's not like he achieved anything special, he just had incredibly sick moves.
Drunken Master II He said "just because"...that's why. And i agree.
@@drunkenmasterii3250 he won a championship
I miss seeing these 3 guys in the floor on a Saturday night on tnt with Marc Albert commentating. Those were the best days of my life in terms of NBA games. Doesn’t matter which one they all were awesome to me.
Much as i love J-Will on the Kings, it was the Mike Bibby-C-Webb combo that really took off & almost shamed the Lakers...
Maravich was doing that type shit in 1972 kids, J Will, love ya, you carried the torch well and no one has picked it up since ( Ben Simmons ? ) what the game is all about, passion, expression, competition. Cousy, Maravich, JKidd, Mark Jackson, White Choc - the entertainers, who thought pass first with style
Tony Gajate wow, u forgot Magic
NBA Legend, Jason Williams.
Stephen Jackson gave J-Will the most appropriate title.
heres a fun fact..jackson and Williams started on championship teams unlike t mac lol...who never got out round 1 ...they bith2 beat dallas through suspension or injury luck for their rings...and both were gone within a year of winning their ring...sad
Man and his guy was sooo fun to watch.
Who else tried to search the damn pass in Indiana and couldn't find and nows depressed and sad? ✋
Yesh X if you look up Jason William top 10 plays it's number 3
Jesse Silva actually that’s not the play. He said mark Jackson and vlade was trailing.
Here you go, time stamp 1:38 ua-cam.com/video/jglwB7il8r4/v-deo.html
thx made my day
oOBlackiceOo MVP
Jason williams!! One of the only people to come from West Virginia and become a legend!!!! 🙏🙏🙏 thank you WHITE CHOCOLATE!
This dude had skills!
Michael McBee mad
The Myth....... The Legend....🙌🏽
J-Will was that dude even as a diehard Lakers fan I've got to admit those early 2000's King teams were a issue and they probably deserve one of our rings. Just saying. 🙊
well shaq and j will hooked up for ring as staryers on the 06 heat out east so it worked out for him and almost for bibby too with LeBron in 2011....sports are funny...peja got a ring vs bibby...poor c webb though
LEGEND. LOVE FROM TORONTO
This guy is probably the only person to play with two HoFers from two different sports. Played with "the freak" Randy Moss in high school basketball and then with Shaq in Miami. That's dope.
My favorite player growing up as a kid in Sacramento. We share the same birthday. He was a real legend. #55
THAT MAN HIGH ASF 😂😂😂
One of my favorite players all time White chocolate and C Webb Sac town was my team ...
Was???
Fucking legendary great playmaker. Love JWill... My God dude was and is so ill... Salute Greatness. White Fucking Chocolate. Crazy skill. No ones even close to what he was doing. He kilt shit in game like what motherfucker. Damn I miss those days....
Jason Williams is country asf
Hands down. No argument. Best passer in BASKETBALL history. HISTORY!!
Reminded me of not just Pistol but the way the old sixers team played. JayWill was more than Basketball he was entertainment
Would’ve loved to see him take on Iverson. Two guys with great handling skills. I love both but I’ve always been a bigger fan of White Chocolate. Totally caught the public off guard about how great he really is.
Underrated. Great handles.
#WhiteChocolate!
I love the art of passes cause of him... Big fan of the legend
Back in these days I read an artical about how he learnd this ballhandling.
He learnd it with these very uncomfortable worker gloves. After that it feels so ridiculous easy for him to do what he want with the ball.
One of the most entertaining player I’ve witnessed
J-Will took Memphis to the playoffs for the first time which Mike Bibby never could do with basically one good player in Gasol.
Had Kobe on skates 😂
Donlin Buchanan he had EVERYBODY on skates
2 legends and Stephen Jackson
Jason Williams was a beast with the passes.
Jason Williams is A LEGEND
White chocolate is low key one of the greatest nicknames of all time.
its also the most fitting and shaq of course gave it to him and they won a ring together in 2006 as starters so good
Respect JWill was the truth
starting point guard avg. 10 in the finals on a title team...
Mark Jackson and Rick Smits the way he said that was Hilarious 😂😂
One of my fave players. Those passing ang fake moves are just awesome! I hope someday someone will come along and reincarnate a Jason William moves
1 of the best passers and 1 of the best ball handlers
What intern messed up the description ?
Justice Williams, there is only one white mamba and his name is Brian Scalabrine
Lol
Justice Williams lol oooh shiit
ARTIST!
Didn't he win a ring with Heat in 06
He did, but he was traded.
him and wade were busting ankles together in 06...
He was the starting PG on that team i think. In the close out game against the Pistons in the ECF he stepped up huge an scored 21 when Dwade was sick. The Pistons ran the East back in that time frame (04-07) they were coming off back to back finals appearances winning one so knocking them off was big.
I have NEVER seen anyone pass like White Chocolate. He's amazing.
One of my favorite players to watch ever.
Raef Lafrentz was lucky he even caught the ball, it him right in his hands. He had no idea the pass was coming to him. If he was ready for the pass he might have been able to finish better. The foul really stains that highlight though. If Lafrentz would have dunked that pass the "Elbow Pass" would be the GOAT assist.
Legendary status.
SJack's phone kept going off. Love it.
Description should read: Jason white chocolate Williams
Been waiting for an upload forever
THE OG WHITE CHOCOLATE LOVE HIS MENTALITY REALLY CHILL POSITIVE VIBES GUY #OGBETTERTHANNASH
"Its not the car. Its the driver."
His son is gonna be good too!
Watching the Kings with C Webb and White Chocolate back in the day... SHOWTIME! And I was not a KIngs, but I would've paid, to see them play for sure!
Does anyone know, which pass vs the Pacers does he talk about?
Might it be the one at around 5:19 mark of this video? ua-cam.com/video/KttDVks6kV8/v-deo.html
There's no Reggie Miller diving, but that's the only candidate I know..
By the way, for all fellow passing enthusiasts, that video is pretty good :)
Thank you!
It seems to be that play.
I seen Reggie at the very end of the clip behind the play. Maybe he just doesn’t remember who exactly was where but this definitely has to be the pass he’s talking about.
Jason Williams
When he shifted Gary Payton to the other hemisphere I near damn swallowed my Twix bar
Jason Williams!!
#55 he was one of my favorite point guards and still is!
Fuckin awesome dude J Williams.
I remember watching JWill as a Gator torching my Kentucky Wildcats back in the day.
I knew he was special then & haters that don’t play called him “a gun”.
He was a gun then, because the pace of college did not fit his game.
That’s why he exploded on the scene of the NBA. Pace and transition.
Dude was one of the best leaders of the fast break in the history of the game.
Motion offense changed the game. Jason was part of that change.
RIP Iso ball. ✌️
Love rockin my gator 55. White chocolate is the man!
The jump is the best show on ESPN without a doubt
J Will: All I wanna do is win.
Lebron: Stats Stats Stats while the league and media protects me
Got him on 2k coming off the bench behind Nash cold af
"that was poseys best move" LOL so true! That dude was ready to scrap at all times!
My second favorite of all time behind AI 🙌
white chocolate!!! omy god!!! thank you for joining ESPN!
Legendary status!
This guy has skills. Be well jay williams
White Chocolate... Legend for real. Giannis and Russ got the seal of approval
White chocolate a real one 🙌
J Will is definitely a basketball Legend.
This guy was my favorite player back in the early 2000’s. Even enjoyed watching him in Florida. But, with all the skills. He had no heart.
I never thought I’d live to see the day to catch a video of a live tv show and the phone rings lol
White Chocolate what's good them NBA LIVE days was crazy
Damn. Fun times. that dude was dope
McGrady rags on players leaving to "join forces" with other top players, yet left Toronto to go play with Hill and Duncan, even though the Duncan deal fell through in the end. He still sounds bitter for never making it out of the 1st round.
Easily one of the best handlers in the game
Of all time
Patented so much of my game from J-Will ...They never expect the behind the head pass😂😂😂
They have amazing talent now but dammit I'm one lucky bastard to grow up watching basketball in that Era and this guy was a huge reason why I watched,very underrated
White chocolate looking lit af
This man is a legend.
He’s one of those players from back in the day that would be even better in today’s game.
James K that’s debatable
Jason was on ESPN highlights every night when came into the league.
My Favorite PG EVER !!!
