How many games did you watch where Derrick won the game for us (being one of the top 2 players)? Either with his O or D or passing? I can think of 1 or 2. Dawson won us one game and played about 10% of the minutes of Derrick in these situations.
Over the last 6 games, All close games we went 2-4. If Dawson gets 20 minutes per game and derrick 20 you feel like we would have been worse then 2-4?
Depaul: Billy Garret and brandon young went for 55 points. Derrick had 3 points and 3 assists. Mayo won the game for us.
Gtown: Starks and Riveria went for 43 points DW had 3 points and 3 assists. Gardner and Jake won game for us.
Vill: Hillard and Ardianao went for 34 and DW had 2 points and 3 assists
Prov: Fortune and Cotton went for 40 and DW 1 point 3 assists
St john:Jordan and harrison went for 40 and DW went 1 point 9 assists
X:Christian and Martin went for 37 and DW 2 points and 5 assists,
The 2 games we won Derrick was not a factor and the guards on the other teams killed us. in the 4 games we lost. 3 very close Derrick did nothing to help us win. He did not slow the other guard down and his best game was 1 point and 9 assists in 47 mins?
Also is assists are not the kind that get super quality shots for his teammates because he is not a very creative passer.
He does not turn the ball over very much that is really the only (the only stat where is AVG) but as a team we did so some of that falls on the PG for not getting people the ball in the right spots.
I'm of the opinion we would have not ended up any worse with Dawson getting 1/2 the time and very well would have ended up better.
