Honest career retrospective on DeMar DeRozan..... The least impactful star in NBA history?

[feelosofer]

I don't think Demar DeRozan is nearly as bad of a player of some of you guys make him out to be. Being in the NBA and scoring 25k is nothing to sneeze at especially when he could have been retired years ago. I get that he did little in the way of winning but there are lots of less accomplished players that you guys hold in higher regard.

DeMar is the wrong player to make this argument with. He doesn't play with much pace or take a lot of 3s

You didn't watch the video.

It has nothing to do with 3s or pace.

It's about how offense in general is easier to play because of rule changes

He's definitely not.

As I've been reiterating - the fact he's nearly 36 and still able to be a productive high-level scorer is testament to that. I get being criticial of him when he's in his prime and/or has high expectations of winning, but it's wild to see such disrespect of his game when 99.9999999999% of wings at his age throughout league history haven't performed at this level.


He was about the only guy to show up for the Kings when their season was on the line, but we have folks who're trying to shape a narrative around him being to blame as if All-NBA/All-Star Sabonis (who's in his prime), shytting the bed wasn't the main reason Sac's season came to an abrupt ending.
