sonny
i've always liked sonny as a backup 2. he can actually defend when he wants to. when he wants to. still i'll take it over whatever demar has shown so far. plus he comes cheap. main problem i had with him was decision-making, trying to do too much. but i like his overall skillset.
on the other hand, i'm not buying into derozan as a starter. too limited on both ends of the floor. there isnt even a single thing he does that i can say he does well. his drives are often forced as if looking for the foul is more important than actually making the bucket. worst part is he never gets the call. he's scared of dunking over people despite his major hops. his shooting mechanics actually regressed this year (even the made ones looked ugly). most importantly, his defense sucks. he's definitely in a funk offensively. but even when he's at the top of his game i still don't see much difference to sonny when he has his head on right. it's just that he's younger, but that doesnt automatically mean he has more upside. i hope he proves me wrong, but i just don't see the high ceiling.
