Jay Williams basically saying Willis's weakness is shooting the ball shows he has no clue about Dericks game. Also, he can't add. Willis with 5 points and 8 boards, not 4 points and 6 boards. Maybe Jaywill is having a brain fart after Duke went down at home to ND.
8 boards doesn't sound right, seems like he has 10 or more. Went thru stretch where he got about every board

Good first half by Willis. Playing with a lot of energy. Skal had a dunk so I am sure his draft status just increased. He looks lost most of the time he is on the court.
7 points. 8 boards. 1 steal. 1 block. 1 assist. Derek Willis kept this team in the game in the first half by pounding the glass. He might have had a lapse or 3 on defense, but he was pretty solid other than that. Our guards are shooting 36% for the game. Must get better production with them since Poy and Lee are no shows offensively.
Some of us didn't need to hear this from ESPN analyst.
If Skal were a three star, we'd be probably be excited about his potential given his shooting touch and watching him develop over the course of a few seasons.
Willis is exactly why our bench players need more minutes. He's improved almost every game since the start of the year.
If Willis never saw the floor, and you put him in today's game, he'd have been awful. But with game minutes comes confidence.
Now let's start doing it with Hump.

Damn straight! Williams has his nose so far up Coach K's ass, when he sneezes, Coach K has an orgasym.
I understand that Skal is trying to show Cal and his teammates that he is tough. The kid can't win for losing.
Without question, Willis needs to be playing more, and Skal needs to ride the pine for the most part until he matures.
Really proud of Willis.

Yes Willis played a great 1st half. But, we WILL NEED Poy's D on Bowers in the 2nd half. Not saying Poy needs to play more that Willis... just that we'll need his D at LEAST!
By that logic, you should never be allowed to post again.
Careful with giving Willis any praise. Apparently, it offends some individuals on this board.
Dad always said if you can't say something good about someone just don't say anything. So my opinion on Skal will fall silent.
Willis played well defensively. If you are referring to his original man hitting 2 3's he had to collapse the lane because our guard got beat bad off the the pick and pop. If he doesn't collapse it's a wide open layup. Guarantee you if he had not played it right Cal would have yanked him. Willis has problems at the defensive end, but today has not been the day.
Being disciplined IS showing the coach and team that you ARE tough!! Cal will take up for him, he just needs to learn from his mistakes.
Disagree. Skal is ..... not good and makes bad decisions.
Translation for Pearl's pregame talk: IF YOU PUKES ONLY WIN ONE MORE GAME THIS SEASON, MAKE IT THIS GAME, BYAAAAHHHHHHHHH!
It would be nice to get through just one game without one of our players being taken back to the locker room due to injury.
