It's a mentality. He is a shoot first guard that will mostly defend point guards. Williams is a pass first guard that defends point guards. It's easy to say the difference, but it is a huge difference in game.
If Fultz runs your team you aren't going to win, just like if Irving ran the Cavs, of Lillard ran the Trailblazers.
Williams is past his prime, but he could have run a contender with the right mix of talent for sure. Fultz has the potential to be as good as Williams was, but in a different role.

35.5ast% for fultz vs 31%ast for Ball, fultz also has lower TO%. How fultz averaged almost 6apg is amazing. Second best scorer was crisp who shoots .411FG% on 13ppg.
He had a high assist rate because he had the ball in his hands so much. It's like how Westbrook or iverson some years had a high rate.
Right. Iverson was a great passer, but wasn't a facilitator in his blood. Many of his assists were last resort types of passes that he made when the defense collapsed on him. Westbrook is the same way.
A true point guard plays the game specifically to get the rest of the team the shots that are best for them. Simmons has this. Embiid will work it out with Simmons, and Simmons will give him the ball in the right spots and the right times, and the efficiency will explode.
Fultz is a guy who has the vision, passing and handle to play point guard, but he ultimately is looking out for himself to score. He can be trained to follow a game plan, but he is instictually a scorer.
