Only watched last 10 minutes and of course Derrick did not score. Typical.  MU losing anyway, sit Derrick and play the underclass man, it is time.  Never seen 2 yea rs of watching the worst point guard in 52 years watching. No matter what or whomever is the point next  year it will enjoyable to watch.

 You must have missed Derricks wild trey today or his monster dunk last Saturday. Oh...yeah...AND he plays better on-the-ball defense than anyone else on the team!  What'd Roosevelt Jones do today? Nothing.  That's on Derrick.  Basketball is a two way game, and Derrick is so much more valuable than JJJ (also can't shoot, can't play D) or Sieve Taylor right now.

For crying out loud, lets not start this again.

Look, I think this season is a lost cause, but Derrick Wilson is hardly the reason. He's playing better than ever before. I really like the way he has stepped up versus past years and I see a lot of Wojo in him.

Is he Butch Lee, Jim Boylan, Glenn Rivers, DWade, Sam Worthan, Tony Smith, any of the Amigos? No. But on this team, he's one of several who are undermanned and playing for a coach who is feeling his way through.

Derrick is OK. Not great but certainly not the evil force most posters on this board think he is.

4?  When it gets into crunch time, it's 1 1/2 on 5.

Of course not. When was the last time we had an "elite PG" playing 32 plus minutes a game and were 27-26. Answer: Never!

And just think! By playing Dawson and JJJ instead we could be 16-37 instead! Or worse. Wouldn't that be fun!

I know. I was more saying Derrick wasn't our problem. We went into prevent offense and everyone in the building knew Carlino was getting the ball. Derrick did great on Jones, but we had no answer for Chrabascz. But of course, the anti-Derrick crowd pins every loss on him. Maybe if the guys defending #45 had done their job we'd be celebrating a win. Instead we lose so it must be Derrick's fault.

Yeah, that's bad.  Guess what? I'm expecting about 32-35 min from DeWill next game also. Like it or not, he ain't goin anywhere.

So...have...who? JJJ play more? He'd be lucky to score 6 points, and he sure as hell wouldn't hold Roosevelt Jones to 2 points. If we were playing with 4 with Derrick on the floor then they were with Roosevelt on the floor, so it was 4 on 4. Derrick gave up 6 inches to one of the best players in the conference and completely shut him down. This argument is as stupid as it gets.

At least you admitted to not having watched the game, saying "I have no idea what I'm talking about, but Derrick is why we lost!" Maybe focus on the guy who gave up 30 to a sophomore averaging 9.

Actually JJJ fit in well with the flow today unlike the last few games.

Sandy couldn't get anything going though.

Derrick goes for 6 pts, 7 boards, 4 assists, 1 turnover, apparently holds Jones to 1-12 from the floor (giving up 6 inches in height)  and people are still complaining?     Good lord.   Find a new pinata.

I only watched the last fifteen minutes of the game where Derrick did not score a point, to bad I missed the first thirty minutes.  I apologize to the Derrick lovers but the last 15 minutes of the game he did nothing except pass up open shots.

You are absolutely right. He is a huge part of why we are even staying competitive in many of our games. It's pretty revealing in terms of people having a clue about basketball when people just trash him. Are there flaws in his game; certainly. Is he far better than anyone else we have in terms of defense, leadership, rebounding and taking care of the ball; without a doubt. He is far from MU's biggest problem, and yes, he is one of the best assets on this team. The bashing is weak.

Yep Lenny. Keep trying the same thing over and over with the same failed results. I never said JJJ or Dawson--you did. But there are other options. Why not try some.

If you really believe he is one of "our best players", then that explains a lot.

It does.    Second most career minutes on the team.   Best defender.   For two years, under two different coaching staffs, no one has been able to take the point guard position from him.    This says more about the circumstances and the other PG candidates than it does about Derrick.   I thought he was going to be one of the top 2-3 players on the team and that is why I predicted 14 wins.     Which is looking optimistic right now.      Next year, there will be talent and less experience.   I am not bullish on next year's team, either.
