I like DWill a lot. We love Ed, but he (& Sullinger) are just on another level.

My only problem is:

1. I'm not a big fan of bigs that shoot 3's.
2. PF is our last position of need (unless we can get good value for Ed or Amir)

Wonder if we can draft DWill & make a trade (maybe Davis) for another pick that will net us Kemba.

I think the best DWill comparison would be Antwan Jamieson. Both are clearly power forwards and is better playing at that position. But they could be three's if you don't mind sacrificing their effectiveness and team defense.

Williams doesn't shoot a lot of 3s, and even when he does, he makes them at a GREAT rate.
That's not gonna be a problem because he's got a good post game that he's going to use a lot

25 pts in the first half

Coach K: "We're playing good, but Derrick Williams is playing great. He's the difference right now"

I've been trying to tell people that Dwill gets overlooked, the guy is a stud and doesn't get enough credit here. It's fair if you don't think he will fit on the raps but the guy has big value as a prospect I think
