Derozan- Sell High?

TheGoodDoctor · Post #16 » by **TheGoodDoctor** » Sun Nov 18, 2012 10:33 pm

I like the idea of selling high but:

1. Tyreke's not even locked in
2. We just extended him ABOVE his market value so I think it's going to take more than a few games to convince GMs to take on $10M/yr.

Evev if Tyreke was lovked in it wouldnt matter, hes a knucklehead who has regressed since his rookie year. Demar is a far better player right now.

Reke is putting up 11/5/3 with a 12 PER, not even close.

We might finally have a solid backcourt in Lowry and Derozan. ...After years of crap backcourt tandems.
Let's see if they can build some chemistry.

That's because you've been watching Calderon start lately.

I used to say this last season, but now that we have Lowry it's not that big of a deal.

Just wait until Lowry comes back & it won't be as big of an issue. Plus, Derozan seems to have figured out how to get the most out of his ball handling skills this season. His ability to get in the lane on his own has improved dramatically. There's no reason to believe that he won't continue to improve.

It's beyond ridiculous :lol:

But I don't think he has that that "it" factor or mentality of a star player. We already have another SG on the roster, Ross. I think we should look for a deal for a guy like Tyreke Evans, who I think has the talent to be a great player in the league, provides us with a guard who can break down the D and take over games late in the fourth. A guy like Casey can whip him up into shape.

Tyreke is a cancer and hes not a team player who doesn't care about winning, after his rookie year he fell off HARD

What will it take to pry Reke from the Kings? Let's just say assuming he's willing to sign an extensign here? Almost all the players we have here are negative value besides Derozan. If you could find a way to pair them together, even though it'd be the worst shooting tandem in the league I'd be all for it because talent matters more than fit in this league.

Yeah, lets get rid of DeRozan now so we can have something to complain about in the future. I don't understand.

Fail thread, Tyreke...you're joking right.

I see no reason to trade him right now, let alone for what is proposed in this fail thread.

I wouldnt give up much more than Ed for Reke as it stands right now.

Id take Reke as the backup 1,2 Try to develop him into a ginobilli role.

Weird logic and suggestion.

Ross looks promising, but not a sure thing yet, so I am not sure if we want to trade DeRozan right away.
Unless you have a choice where our backup is capable of starting, otherwise, the trade better be an upgrade at another position (SF for example, player in Millsap who can play SF and PF).

Not that I think trading a guy right after he's agreed to extend is a great idea but how about Bargs and Demar for Batum and Matthews. That's a trade that would allow for a lack of a stretch 4 on offense.

How are we selling high when he hasn`t even peaked :-?

Lol at the idea of replacing DeMar with Wes Matthews.
