No way bro. Not you.

Derozan Has saved the raptors every single year off his creating from nothing

We ARE talking about the DeMar DeRozan whose only elite attribute is scoring, yet who is a career 39% shooter in the playoffs, right? :scust:

And it's even worse because that's 39% shooting on almost entirely TWOs. Which means that his eFG% is....also 39%. :huhldup:


He does put together nice scoring runs sometimes, though always on high volume. Yet even last year, in his best playoff run yet, he sprinkled in 5-19, 5-18, 7-19, 4-15, 10-32, 3-13, 9-24, 6-17, 4-17, 8-21, and 2-8 games. Shootings TWOs.

He didn't hit a single three in those 11 sub-40% games I just listed. In just ONE playoff run.

That's just not enough to contribute to a champion when scoring in the only thing you do well. :yeshrug:

Yes he does struggle in the playoffs but we're talking currently.

He made "the jump"

I hope Draymond gets traded at some point in his career so dumbass nikkas finally figure out what a complete role player he is. This dude wouldn't average 20/10 on the Phoenix Suns. He owes his career to Steph/Klay and Kerr.

We'll see. :yeshrug:


He's suddenly making everything from 3-16 feet this year, as well as finishing at the basket way above his career rate, while still being mediocre as hell on long twos and horrible on threes.

I have a hard time imagining him continuing to destroy teams with those short jumpers in the playoffs. Those are rhythm shots and the playoffs are all about challenging everything inside and destroying rhythms. He's going to be taking way more long twos when the playoffs come around, just like he does every year, and he's going to be mediocre-to-poor on them, just like he is still is right now.


Not to mention that he looked dominant as hell when the season started, but has been really shaky the last month. Not a good trend line...

Derozan...

He is more capable of playing defense like Draymond than Draymond is capable of scoring like Derozan...

Draymond better than Love, Wiggins, and Milsap...all those guys can create their own shot and Draymond can't :mjlol:
