We've seen this movie 3 years in a row. Time for a new film starring different actors.

42% from the line is abysmal.... You cant rely on that pctg to hit anything when it counts or even in general.

What do you want me to say?  ESPN has him ranked as one of the worst 3 pt shooters in the history of the NBA.  He's never been a great shooter. 

I guess the fact that he is shooting 55%  from the floor this year means nothing.

Screw numbers though.

Very good mid-range shooter - terrible 3-point shooter.

Derrick has trouble driving and dishing. He is a poor finisher around the rim. He can't make a 10-footer, 15-footer, 3-pointer or free throw. We have seen proof of this for 3 freakin' years. In fact, one could make a decent statistical argument that, despite getting 30mpg, he actually got worse! There couldn't have been a worse offensive PG (especially a 30mpg one) in all of D1. Maybe not in the last decade of D1.

If you read my posts, you'll see that I am generally an optimistic, reasonable guy. Given what he has shown us over the course of 3 years, I cannot imagine Derrick suddenly becoming even a Cadougan-level offensive threat.

And shouldn't Junior Level be the absolute floor for an acceptable PG of a team that hopes to contend for anything?
