Demar Derozan 2019-2020 Outlook

[stay_woke 610]

Another game, another below average performance from DeRozan. In 10 games this season he's reached his scoring average in my points league from last season just twice. Every one of his stats is down from last season except turnovers. This dude is such a disappointment 😒

I've been trying to get rid of him but he's not really doing any favors.

In the first post in this thread you said you thought he would return 4th round value and he's ranked 130 in 9-cat, so I don't really know why you're hitting me with the 'I told you so'. 

Thankfully I play in a points league where he has been a bit better but still underperforming relative to ADP. I'm starting to send out offers to see if anyone wants to pay for the name value. Does anyone have any reason to be optimistic that he turns it around? Or is this just 2019-20 DeRozan we're seeing?

I was going to look for target for my punt 3s team, and thought that DeRozan might be a great target, but after reading this thread, it seems like everyone is down or pissed off at DeRozan, why is that? sorry I have never followed the Spurs nor owned DeRozan. I was thinking sending my Conley for DeRozan but I am hesitant after reading this thread hahaha

Ignore the comments. DD is what he is, a boring but effective player. Gives you nice %'s, free throws, points and can grab some boards and dimes. Not a 3 point threat at all and turns the ball over a bit. Also, it's been like 10 games its wrong to write off players

Trade talks of Demar being traded to Orlando. Assuming this happens and San Antonio doesnt get a small forward in return, who do we think picks up Demars minutes? Who is the main beneficiary fantasy wise from San Antonio? Is there anyone specific from Orlando that the Spurs may swap Demar for?

lol too damn early to speculate anything. I'll just be upset that he goes from 11 playoff games to 10 lol

I gotta imagine one of AG or Fournier get sent back to the Spurs? Idk if the Magic are ready to give up on AG tho since he is still pretty young. Maybe just a salary dump for the spurs and go ahead and tank and start a rebuild?

DD is decent in points league, but for everything else he should not drafted in the top 80. All popcorn stats. No stocks whatsoever. A glorified old-Wiggins

That's irrelevant...DD will never be the reason you win a league. Have some critical thinking skills and analyze who is valuable or not yourself, don't just rely on outside rankings

You don't win your league by having the most players in the top 50 or whatever of the "player rater." The PR is best used as a resource for newbies who don't know the players well enough. I say this again - develop some critical thinking skills and learn how to assess a player's true worth on your own without relying on what other people say

Can u share your team? I would like to learn from your critical thinking ways. DD and all players will depend on your team buildup. While he does lack stocks, he provides fg%, ft%, assists, points, boards. Again it depends on your build.

so you would draft 80 players ahead of Derozan who finished last season with 20/6/6 1 steal and 0.5 blks, 48fg% 83ft% on high volume? Are you trollin? He was elite in punt 3s h2h builds and roto too if you got some 3point shooter.

Bro you gotta develop those critical thinking skills tho....

Fournier doesn't really seem to fit the Spurs. I feel like Gordon fits pretty perfectly though. But I can't imagine they can pull him from Orlando without giving up more. I feel like trying to get Vucevic makes sense, but, again, they'd have to give way more up. I don't really see why they'd be giving up Demar, they probably value his game more than any other team would.

Like I said, that's decent for points leagues but otherwise really meh. FT% is good but declining in FTA every year. FG% last year was an anomaly with respect to the rest of his career. The rest are fluff stats that you should be able to get from players who give you real meat stats while still putting up decent P R A. DD is a solid glue guy, but not a gamechanger. It is not hard to find 70 players more valuable

They’ll move Gordon in a heartbeat. Magic have Fultz and Isaac to build around and Vuc is still going strong. AG has a bad contract and is underachieving. I’d move him for DD any day 

[OxyBubbleMan 278]

I feel like a Kyrie disciple when I read a critical thinking reply to a user named stay_woke.

 

Demar isn't for everyone I feel. Some like certain builds more than others and Demar fits teams that would like to ensure that they lock down ft% every week because it has little variance week to week with decent fg% and popcorn stats with the added playmaking.

 

How do you guys feel about the rumors that the Magic is interested in acquiring him?

Edited November 13 by OxyBubbleMan
You guys think it is Gordon and not Bamba and Fournier?

Hes averaging better fg% than last season with the same amount of ft attempts. A lil too early to say last season was an anomaly. Also have to account for durability, he's missed less than 20 games combined the past 4 seasons.
