Oh, right: Points per game. Fifth.

Well, I mean ESPN is projecting JV to average 16.4ppg 8.5rpg 1.8bpg this season in 33.8mpg.

I would be extremely happy with those numbers, but I don't think it's gonna happen. I expect more along the lines of 13ppg, 8rpg and 2bpg in about 30mpg.

Everyone on this thread should already know what DeMar does well, like draw fouls, get to the line,
handle a high amount of minutes, etc.
The fact that he is ranked 12th in usage yet is 5th in scoring is pretty interesting...
I'm not saying he's top 5, maybe top 10 at his position, but if you're going to site stats
to make an argument show both sides and make a balanced argument. Otherwise,
you appear to have the behavior of a politician rather than someone making a legitimate argument.

12th in usage and 5th in points is all I need to know. I thought he would of been top 5 in usage and like 9th or lower in points. He's a top 10 SG and if you are debating this you are being silly. He's not top 10 rank on ESPN rankings, but they put him behind Crawford, Reddick, Mayo, Allen and I'd probably still choose Derozan over those guards.-"You can’t run from me. I mean, my heart don’t bleed Kool-Aid."

- Playing primarily against 2nd units
- Playing with basically maximum energy at all times due to limited minutes
- Because they might be on the second unit, could possibly the only primary scorer in their lineup

He scores a lot of points for the amount of shots he takes, he played the same amount of minutes as Kobe, everyone who made more freethrows than him were all stars, and looking strickly at SGs Kobe, Steph, Monta, and Harden outscored him. He does what he does well, and efficiently when you include free throws as free money.
So why the hate?
If this is about whether he fits on the Raps that's one debate but doubting that he is/or is near a top 10 SG in the league doesn't work for me.

Just throwing it out there.
You can be skeptical or have doubts without hating the guy.
As for the top 10 SG in the league, if you are talking about top 10 scoring SG you have a great point. However there are many more facets to the game: defense, rebounding, passing, dribbling, moving without the ball to name a few. When looking at the complete package, I do think it is debatable.

So for DD that would be more than tripling his attempts from last season (1.9 per48).Heir, Prince of Cambridge
