He's consistent at least. Consistently a fucking disaster at the end of games.
DeRozan: 1-0
Nephew: 0-1
Let us proceed...
he just shouldn't play hero ball. DeRozan needs to take under 20 shots per game and focus on hitting the open man. No scoring out of post ups, he's not efficient there
Derozan absolutely made me pull my hair out at points in that game, but in the final 2 minutes, dude hit some big shots and got some boards. He wasnt an abortion, and surely can play better next game.
I just don't get it tbh....guy has such low IQ sometimes....he takes the worst angles when driving to the rim...makes stupid kick out passes when he should take the shot...
I've been beating this drum for months but he does go into hero mode. Time and time again. And it's a fucking disaster every time.Quote:

LOL. DeRozan in his postgame interview, and they keep asking him about Derek White. :lol
Not sure if you really want him in that long but at least Demar can play more than 33 fucking mins in a playoff game :lmao
Which is more correct in the final minutes when TEAM ball is most essential?
Passing the ball
Shooting every time a la Kobrick style?
:lol This is hilarious. What was the point of sitting Rental Nephew for 1/4 of the season if you're not gonna play him 40MPG in playoffs? What a stupid fucking coach :lolQuote:

Your fan base should be thoroughly pissed. I don't even know who you should be pissed at. Is Kawhi demanding the bench time, or is management trying to prove to him that they care about his health?Quote:

He’s like Tony Romo in crunch time.
I hate the jump passing and tunnel vision he gets at the end of games but he wasn't totally awful tonight. Hopefully he can build on this win and play better
I'm going to chalk it up to Nurse being a retard. But if Game 2 is close and Nephew doesn't see close to 40 mins, that might be a Dennis call tbh.Quote:

Tbf, if there's such a thing as a demoralizing win this was it. The Spurs didn't really win, they just kind of sucked/choked less than Denver.Quote:

We all saw how that series ended. Probably the dumbest thing I have heard in here in a while.Quote:
