3. Deron Williams
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V86VG1gQ2bU A few seasons ago Nets fans believed Williams to be the best point guard in the league. Yes, that includes Derrick Rose and CP3. While these fans may have held some standing back then, Williams' game has taken a backwards step whilst other point guards have flourished. At 30 he should be maturing as a player not regressing. With the talent available on the Nets roster, it appears Williams has become distracted, forgetting about his own capabilities. Before the arrival of Johnson, Pierce and Garnett, Williams was at the heart of everything good about the Nets. This has turned almost full circle, as Williams has become a liability within the starting 5. His rating in the game is sure to be surpassed by Lillard, Lawson and Wall. As for his whopping 88 in NBA2K14? This number can only head south. A former premier point guard in the game, Williams numbers in 2013 instead showcased an average starter on an average team.
