Question is.... Is the 3 point line just a psychological thing for DeMar? He consistently nails jumpers 1-2 feet inside the 3pt. line, I don't have any stats, but the eye test tells me way more consistent from that distance.
Didn't get to catch the bulk of the game yesterday, but watched some of DeMar's hilights. Two things that were plain and obvious was that one, his defender was going under the screen every time and TWO, there was a screen set for him to get an open shot!!! Where was that in the Chicago game with the game on the line?!! Serenity now....

Raps did a great job setting those screens for open looks.
DeRozan did a great job hitting the shots too.
Since January 5th - DeRozan's awakening - he has taken more 16-24 shots than anyone else in the league (192). Earlier in the season he was hitting about 39% of these shots. Since January 5th he is hitting 43.8% of them - 33rd in the league among players with at least 50 attempts.
