I sure hope he pans out though.
And then Ross will replace Demar.
WOOOOOOOOTTTTT!!!!

But instead, it is more about looking at Ross in realistic manners. Seriously, we need a reality check regarding Ross
For past 3 years, he really showed that he just doesn't have the 'heart'.
He is the type of guy who needs to go to Spurs or other military-like basketball system, to get the most out of his true potential
Well, unfortunately time is cruel and merciless.
I mean it's already been 3 years

And I don't know if you noticed but we still need perimeter shooting. I guess a lot depends on how much you buy in to his bone spurs and some off-the-court distractions affecting his play. I see a guy that is due for a solid year as a shooting roleplayer off the bench.
Most of the times, I see Ross just lost on the defence. I really don't think it had anything to do with him guarding tough players or not
Ross = Salmons 2.0 (in raptors system that is)Last edited by Triplethreat89; Wed Jul 15, 2015, 04:45 PM.
