Not airballing my layups anymore
Re: Raps reach 4-year agreement with DeMar Derozan
I like DeMar, I really do, and I hope he continues to improve and prove most of us wrong, but the money that Colangelo keeps throwing at these unproven players borders on ridiculous, especially given his flip flops between "rebuilding" and "contending now".

Riggin' for Wiggins!
Re: Raps reach 4-year agreement with DeMar Derozan
Agreed Q. I don't like DeRozan any less than I did before the extension, but I sure as hell like Colangelo less.

Bill Simmons @sportsguy33
But seriously - any time you can pay $60 million combined to DeMar DeRozan and Landry Fields, you have to do it.
Had a good laugh over this one.

Re: Raps reach 4-year agreement with DeMar Derozan
It's odd how universally panned this deal is. Usually you find some writer trying to find the tiny bright-side.
The worst part of this is that Lowry and Valanciunas are a pretty solid combo to start your "core" with. Neither are or probably will be superstars but it's encouraging. But now how do you add significant pieces around those two guys when you have so much money tied into mediocrity (Derozan, Bargnani, Johnson, Fields, Kleiza) over multiple years? Drafting a low-ceiling player like Ross doesn't help either.

Decent college freshman
Re: Raps reach 4-year agreement with DeMar Derozan
Love Lowry and Val, literally hate everyone else because of either their play, their contract or both.

This.
I'm still a fan of Calderon, but he doesn't belong here anymore and should be moved for future pieces. Hopefully to a team I don't hate.

On the clouds
Re: Raps reach 4-year agreement with DeMar Derozan
If DD keeps this up, he'll be worth that contract in no time. Want to see how he does against OKC and other tough teams.

He's been great the past two games. Hope he keeps it up!

Re: Raps reach 4-year agreement with DeMar Derozan
This Minnesota game was a step in the right direction. His defense was actually quite solid too although guarding the corpse of Brandon Roy doesn't seem that hard.

No props needed
Re: Raps reach 4-year agreement with DeMar Derozan
He did pretty well against Joe Johnson yesterday as well.

Re: Raps reach 4-year agreement with DeMar Derozan
Two games does not a career make....
Nor a contract justification....
But it is positive and interesting (!! ) to see Derozan and Lowry lead Bargnani and Jonus in total rebounds.

Not just Bargs and Val, but Amir and Ed too in total rebounding.
