Everyone deep down truly knew this.
No amounts of excuses like “he’s a better playmaker,” “has better chemistry with Aldridge,” “he can excel in’s system,”. was ever gonna change that. The sooner PATFO realizes this and trades him the better.
Spurs finally found their own Antoine Walker.
The scary thing is, even if the Spurs make the playoffs, DeRozan plays much worse.
What an absolute disaster of a season.

So Derozan is no longer better than Leonard on the forum? How long did it take y’all to realize this obvious ?
since he’s playing like complete dog , I expect him to sign a $150 million extensionEveryone deep down truly knew this.

My favourite was “He’ll make the Spurs a better team than last year!”Everyone deep down truly knew this.

The guy is an automatic net negative every time he steps onto the court and one of the worst defenders in the league. Awful awful awful all around.
What the were they supposed to do? Seriously. No trades were good. The whole ing thing sucked and Kawhi did everything in his power to reduce his trade value.
You're right. We should've just resigned kawhi. what was PATFO thinking!?
Trade for someone who literally hasn’t been a net negative for a majority of their career. Not getting someone back as good as Kawhi wasn’t the issue, getting someone who makes every lineup worse is.
Yeah? The Cavs traded Kyrie Irving for Isaiah Thomas, a couple of filler players, and the Nets #8 pick. Then Isaiah Thomas failed his physical, so the Cavs got an extra second round pick.
And that's without going back in time. Dallas got Nowitzki in exchange for Robert Tractor Traylor and some other crap. Barkley to Phoenix? I think Barkley was the MVP the next season, and made the next 4-5 All Star teams.
If no trades were good, then make no trade at all.
Its only the worse of the decade if tor wins the finals and kawhi stays. along with us missing the postseason
Actually, the Georgie to indiana? that got the spurs the 14th pick which ended up being Kawhi
was a worse trade because it cursed the Spurs with a backstabbing quitter who betrayed the franchise -
and
the spurs lost pops favorite player too.
The Harden trade and Gerald Wallace move were far worse, off the top of my head..
Take a look at the Los Angeles Birthday Cakers. Even with the best player in the world, surrounded by "better talent" than the Spurs, they still drop a game to the Hawks.
Not even top 10
Unfortunate how everything went down though
Maybe if you're looking at it from a ONE season standpoint..the Raptors got the 2 best players in the deal for this season..however, Kawhi will be a Clipper next year and Danny will either leave or won't play as well in a non-contract year..it didn't really change anything for the Spurs in the grand scheme..
Im just glad SA didn’t get stuck with Kuz and Ingram. That would have sucked so bad.
It certainly wasn't worse than Kwame Brown for Pau Gasol.
Agree that Nephew put the Spurs in a bad spot and teams probably weren't interested in an injury prone player who quit on his team. I just find it hilarious how some were convincing themselves the Spurs were better off with Demar vs Kawhi. Just read back to timvp's thread about the trade and why Demar to Spurs was a good move.
I'm not going to sell the guy out after one-half of a bad season...but it's seriously becoming concerning. Like...WTF concerning.
He just looks like out there. Bad shots, bad body language, can't score, isn't moving the ball properly anymore...It's like he wilted when the team actually started improving around him.
It's almost like he checked out after that trip-dub against his former team.
Why? Kuzma and Ingram won't be destroying cap space for the next three years. At worst, they're tradeable assets which can be used in future trades.
The good news is he can be worse.
Yeah, even if you factor in the rental part, this is gotta be one of the most underwhelming haul ever received in Superstar-centered trades..
The lack of upside in the return is staggering (unless SA hit on jimmy Butler or someone close with the 28-29th pick)..
What makes the deal really lopsided was also sending out Danny Green and receiving no one back to fill the void left at the wing position. Should have pushed hard for Siakam or even Anunoby instead of Poetl who hasn't done jack for us.
I said this decade
