Desi is the man

[Shuathelete]

Last year I wanted him at the 3, this year i thought we could be weak at the 4 and was thinking about using him there, but damn im glad he can be at 3.

What a player.

Next year could actually be enjoyable.

 

[Piratz]

He's been our best player this year, IMO.

 

[SHUHoopsFan]

I'm not sure he's been better than Carrington, but he's clearly our most improved player.

Desi has been very good. But Nezi to me is the difference maker.

 

[halltheway]

Individually we have very good players and their time will come.

 

[shupat08]

Desi is the most consistent "within a team concept" player. Rebounds, passes, defense and scores WHEN KC & IW give it to him in rhythm.

Best player on the team to date.

 

[catholicman]

He knows how to get to the hoop. He finds any seam possible, rather than aimlessly driving into three defenders.

I agree on Desi. Funny that he is always the first person Willard subs out in games.

Don't even get me started. We have 4 people who can score. We're up 2... Let's sub 3 of them out at the same time.

Yeah that was bizarre.

Desi is also very efficient. Fills up the stat sheet. The kid may end up being the first one to the NBA in the whole lot. Athletic, developing a good handle - he has huge upside in a few years but he's doing great for our Pirates this year. Enjoying watching him develop and play so well.

We are not deep. Need to stick with a core 8 man rotation. Have seen 6 years now of Willard mad scientist substitution patterns.

My sister and I said the same exact thing tonight.

i think you might be right....

Desi unfortunately is too small and not quick enough for the NBA. But at the rate hes going who knows.

Delgado will never be an NBA player. Too small, not athletic cant jump, not good on offense, non existent on defense. Hes going to be a hell of a player for SHU, but when it comes to NBA players its a new breed. Some guys make it on a specialty, but you have to be able to play d and he cant really do that. And NBA has athletic giants. Still rooting for him though.

Whitehead is tricky. He doesnt have a position. Clearly has the talent, but he wont fit right now. Im sure there are coaches somewhere that think they can mold him.

I still give the nod to whitehead as out best chance. I know somebody somewhere saw that behind the backboard shot and wrote some notes down haha.

Again, NBA is a completely different breed. Desi could be our most athletic guy and there are 100 guys even more athletic.

Ive been dying to buy a jersey.

Desi obviously worked on his outside shot since last year and his hard work shows. Nice release.

 

[fdamato22]

Desi's first dunk just made Sports Center top 10 at #8. and his second dunk off the inbounds play just came in at #1 in the top 10

 

[Halldan1]

He's been our best player this year, IMO.

Without a doubt!
