That would mean trading DeMar for another high usage player I think. The team is built around DeMar so moving him means you have to replace a fair bit of what he does. I love the idea spreading shots around, but there can't be a complete balance in usage unless everyone in your rotation are similar in talent level. We know that isn't the case.

I must say though, DD and Lowry were pretty good against Washington. Matthews on the other hand completely choked against the Bruins.Mamba Mentality

You can have an imbalanced usage lineup with low-mid 20's usage rates topping each lineup. You don't need a ~30% usage guy to make the offence work.

Could also run some more high post options, with cutters and off-ball screen play to try to get some easy offence.

Everything Demar Derozan
Demar knows he has to get better. He’s the hardest worker in the league. I truly believe he’s going to come back next year a better defender and a better 3 point shooter. He finally got comfortable taking 3s this year, and he was able to put more effort in on the defensive end than he has in a long time, he has to build on it. My opinion is that we try to find a taker for serge without giving up any picks, if not, roll it back with a new coach. We’ve got a bit more in the tank for this core, especially if pascal, OG, Delon and Yak get better, which they will.

I think Masai should try to get try to shed some long term salary, get a couple extra picks and load up on young guys who haven't panned out.

You go into your sets immediately, and keep motion going off-ball as well, to create holes in the defense. The Raptors weren't good at that this year.
