      Thought I’d make a thread for the believers & nonbelievers, playing the best basketball of his career it’s DeMarvelous DeChozen. Also known as one of the most hated players by a few users here. Let’s see what he did yesterday:

      34 points, 12-19 FG, 10-11 FT, 6 rebs, 3 asts

      DeMar DeRozan BING BONG 💀 34 CLUTCH Points vs Knicks

      “Derozan & Lavine won’t work”
      “The bulls are a play in team”
      “TJ Warren = Demar”

      Now for the fun part let’s look at some of the doubters over the years:

      & now for the biggest hater by FAR. The one & only

                        I know Derozan is a good player but didn’t predict that he will be the Best Bulls Player this Season.

                          @luckykid yep. Nobody predicted Derozan to be averaging 26 ppg through his first 23 games.

                                  I expect us to chase a 4 at the deadline. AKME doesn't sit around and wait.

                                              For real. Those Toronto teams from 2015-2018 were probably about two levels below those Cavs teams.

                                                I’ve said it many times that I think people underrate how good Demar Derozan was with Toronto. He led the Raptors to the best record in the East 2 years in a row. My problem with him is the playoffs. His last series against Lebron & JR. He averaged 16ppg on 43% shooting and got swept after averaging 24ppg in the regular season… It does not surprise me to see him playing well in the regular season. He’s a baller… now I did think that maybe age slowed him down, but clearly it was just Spur’s old school system keeping his numbers back. Also my only problem with the bulls signing him is the amount of money he’s getting paid. He’s on a 3 year 85 million dollar deal at 32 years old. With how he’s playing now that seems to be a steal, but coming in.. I thought that was a bad contract considering Zo gets paid a lot and Lavine and Vucevic need to get paid too

                                                354E30DA-9975-4AB6-B3F1-B5AB651A3C62.jpeg

                                                  @hollygrovemikey spurs players usually aren’t putting up crazy numbers it’s really Pop’s focus on team ball which is a detriment when the team isn’t that good. You gotta go back to David Robinson & George Gervin for that..

                                                  That raptors team definitely went out sad but realistically it wasn’t there time. The 18-19 raptors not only got Kawhi for him but also the players just developed along with trades. Like you said it’s about the playoffs but I’m not too worried, the bulls are well constructed & everyone can shoot.

                                                    @zackdesenfants Kyle Lowry, Demar Derozan, Jonas Valencunias, serge Ibaka, Paskal Siakam, Norman Powel, CJ Miles, OG, and Fred Vanvleet we’re all on the 2018 Raptors team that loss to Lebron, JR, Love, Korver, Tristian, Jordan Clarkson, Jeff green. 2016-2017 Cavs had the better roster for sure, but Kyrie and Love both missed a lot of time with injuries. 2018 Raptors roster was probably better.

                                                      @hollygrovemikey Fred VanVleet, Pascal Siakam, Norman Powell, and OG Anunoby were all role players for that team.

                                                      Did all those players turn out pretty well? Yes they did,

                                                      But they were all role players for that team that did not even put up 10 ppg.

                                                      That Raptors team had a good roster on paper looking back at it, but was it really that good in 2018?

It was filled with role players just as the Raptors was. Mainly veteran role players. The main difference was Lebron. He averaged 34ppg for that series. Raptors should have never been swept.

Jrue guarded Devin Booker a lot in the finals and frustrated him. Middleton will probably guard Zo considering Zo isn’t looking to score… or you put Jrue on Zo and Lonzo gets taken completely out of the game.

It was filled with role players just as the Raptors was. Mainly veteran role players. The main difference was Lebron. He averaged 34ppg for that series. Raptors should have never been swept.

                                                                                            I mean having LeBron is a world's difference. Especially 2018 Bron, which I think is his best prime.

                                                                                            But that Raptors team was not built for the playoffs.
