Everything Derozan

[Apollo]

Based on what you seen from DeRozan so far this season has your opinion of him changed at all compared to when he was drafted? Is he exceeding your expectations, meeting your expectations or not meeting your expectations in any area? Please discuss.

The Spurs are heading to game seven. DeMar had a nice game six.

meh, who cares about the Spurs

Random, but the title of the thread bothers me. It's DeRozan, not Derozan.

... sorry, OCD kicking in.

He looked pretty good! Took and missed a couple bad shots but ended up with a decent percentage, dropped a couple dimes, and seemed engaged defensively. Poeltl looked pretty good too, grabbed a lot of boards - he only grabbed 10 boards 5 times total in his time here.

Can’t wait to see Demar and the spurs play today.

Some really solid answers from DeMar. You could tell they were fishing for negative reactions but he was very equable throughout.

His answer to this was especially good, around 3:10.

Q: "In an era where guys go from team to team you're a guy that was loyal, how does that change your outlook on GMs, coaches, as far as being loyal to the players?"

A: "I mean you gotta base your self on what you stand for, your morals, you can't let nothing else change you... I'm gonna be me, I'm gonna be loyal to what's loyal to me, I'm gonna stand by whatever I believe in. I can't fault somebody else if they don't believe in it. You know I gotta keep my mindset, I can't let it change me, and be a completely different person because of somebody else's decision."

Derozan claiming he's gonna drop 50 on us. Dude will be lucky to get 15 against this team. Does he know who he got traded for???

DeRozan and Ibaka once everything's settled down.

Also does anyone else not read the stickies? They don't stick out to me for some reason and so my brain glosses over them.

Yeah, definitely with you on that. But oh well, guess if people are really interested in a thread, they'll find it!

Some good Derozan pics with the Spurs. I'm really curiois to see what kind of impact Pop has on him. He's always been coachable, this might really help his game.

Are you being deliberately obtuse? The Carroll thread is dead. No one cares about him, and no one cares where his dead thread sits. The DeMar thread will likely be active all season - and as such should be in the correct forum.

No, no I get it. Derozan's no longer a raptor, so he's in let's nba, not everything raptors, this makes some sense. And that's also a good point perhaps, if his thread's being actively used it especially shouldn't stay in the raptors area.

Anyhow, I was just trying to back my guy (see above) who seems to support the reasoning I'm still more in favour of re: the Demar thread, despite understanding why the move was made and will stay that way. Anyway. Let's move on here. Onto actual relevant basketball talk!

Sorry, Demar? Name sounds familiar but I can't quite put him and the raptors together anymore... It's not like he was ever part of the "everything raptors" thread or something, was he? Perhaps you mean Demarre. Looks like he's still a raptor! (as per the forum categories)
