JWash wrote: View PostBut the point was that DeRozan is not using a ridiculous number of possessions to produce his offense. Like S.R. said he's 13th in scoring usage (actually I'm seeing 12th but maybe I'm reading it wrong), but 9th in scoring, and it's not like we're a particularly high scoring team so that's very good.
If we're going to be paying DeMar the 5-year max, which is looking exceedingly likely, I'd like him to become a player who the advanced stats love. The keys to that, in my opinion, are being a better playmaker on the offensive end, and being a more active defender.twitter.com/anthonysmdoyle

Or do you concede that Demar's main purpose out there is to score the ball for us?

LeBron James' main purpose is to score the ball as well, but he generates a lot of offense for the guys around him as well. I'm not expecting DeMar to become Chris Paul, but I think him getting up to 6-7 assist per game would be well within his skillset, and might even make it easier for him to generate space for his own scoring.twitter.com/anthonysmdoyle

demar is already generating a career high in assists.
and the time of saying advanced stats is over. if all you have to do is go to a website and punch in a name, thats not advanced stats.

As for JV getting his, I assume then you are fine with Scola getting as many touches as he does? Because he's taking 14 FGAs per game ...
