  So, he's always had a problem with turnovers.  Everyone knows it.  What's the point?

That this is a message board????

  ok, so what's the point of reiterating the message that is critical of one of our former players who played his butt off for us?

Why is being honest about his NBA chances being critical?

IMO, criticizing our former player is classless and shows a lack of appreciation for his contributions.

Just watched the game and at first didn't recognize him.  No dreads and he has put on muscle.

Nice game for him, got the post game interview and good for his cause.  Many scouts in attendance at the game from other teams, so he maybe if he doesn't pan out with OKC, another will give him a shot.

Agree with others though, it will be tough for him with the turnovers.  There are numerous scorers at the guard position out there.

What can be criticized?

Video recap: Buycks and Tyshawn were leading scorers for their teams. Two MU connections.

Agree.  Buycks appears to be working his butt off trying to fulfill a dream, and is closer to it than many get..just by being able to get to the Summer League/NBDL.  Dwight seemed like a good guy during his time at MU and deserves our support...not snide remarks...IMO.

How many turnovers did he have? Let the betting begin at +/- 5

The bigger number for buycks is assists. It was his 23 point, 0 assist game last year that made teams decide he just couldn't play point. People dissed Westbrook all year for the turnovers but at the end of the year his overall game had him voted one of the top 10 players in the league. The spurs are the perfect opportunity for buycks - if he can battle westbrook for a physical 10 minutes every playoff game they can live with turnovers.

Good luck Dwight! And if MU has 8 players in the NBA next year we will certainly be elite, and surpassing the 1970s players.

Mr. Buycks mentions turnovers as an area needing improvement in his game, he didn't mention anything about Hiroshima doh

Some player reviews to satisfy ATWizJr:

**Some say that Dominic James was too short and didn't have enough of an outside shot to play in the NBA...I say that he was playing in Europe because of a desire to travel the world!

**Some say that Lazar is too undersized to make significant contributions in the NBA...I say that based upon his Game 5 performance in the Finals, that he should have seen more action than he did.

**Some say that Jerel was irresponsible for getting kicked out of the Belgian League for smoking pot...I say that he simply got mixed up between Belgium and the Netherlands.  Hell, that mistake happens all of the time!!!

This is fun!

On top of other Vander bashing threads.  And least we are basing our criticisms on his on-court performance versus crap like "not slapping Derrick Wilson five."

 Hey, as long the "some" are third parties and not MU fans who should be supporting those who played their butts off for their alma mater, I have no argument with them.

Watching the video interview/highlights on the NBA TV clip, did notice that all of Buycks good stuff was going to his left as he did at MU ( remember that Notre Dame game at the BC ).  Dwight really needs to work on going to his right to get to the NBA...?
