yes Derozan does not shoot 3s and would not suit our team, but he is a lot more accomplished than Middleton, 4 times all star, 2 all nba teams, has been the best player of a 60 win team. Why do we keep laughing about him?
....and dunked on Thon or whoever that was in the last minute while Khris shot an airball and threw a pass to an official. He also had to take it right at Giannis and our D for better and worse. I don't want DeMar anymore, but he's better than Khris.
You know how in all these semi-close games Giannis decides to see if he's hot from deep with about 5:00 left? Really that's all I've ever wanted from Khris. He should want to close the game. He should want the ball. He should defer when Giannis has it going, but he should consider himself to be The Closer.
Instead he hides. He's the 38% 3 point shooter. He's the money free throw shooter. He's the iso player. He should perform like the guy some of you pretend he is. If he was, then some of the other lazy stuff I could look past.
