They’re Wrong About DeMar DeRozan and the Kings…

The Sacramento Kings made a BIG move by acquiring DeMar DeRozan via sign and trade, and now the question is whether or not he moves the needle for the Kings in a tightly contested Western Conference.
But a lot of people are wrong about DeMar DeRozan. DeRozan is still one of the most consistent players in the entire NBA. Even with the questions about how exactly he's going to fit alongside De'Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis, the Kings are making a smart move: get the talent, figure the rest out later.
And the concerns about DeRozan's fit might be a bit overblown. Although his lack of three point shooting may not mesh perfectly with Sacramento's high-volume, three point heavy offense, he's still going to offer more than enough to help bolster their offense and double down on their strengths. The DeMar DeRozan trade might just be what the Sacramento Kings need.

@JedidieughTV 18 дней назад

HB got significantly slower laterally on defense last year and became a below average defender. Replacing him with Demar will not hurt the Kings defensively apart from in matchups where size matters. HB was a very consistent 3 point shooter though so Keegan, Ellis, Monk, and Huerter have to pick up the slack on that end. Especially Keegan because his corner 3's were abysmal last year.

The Kings now have someone to go to the post when the game slowdown or when they need a bucket. This is something they done with Barnes but he was able to draw fouls many times only. But they're definitely going to go to DeRozan even more. When the game become tight...this could mean the difference between winning or losing. I couldn't count how many games where the Kings lose because they couldn't get a good winning shot off OR couldn't shift momentum due to the way they had to play fast OR how many possessions were wasted because the players they had on the court just couldn't generate offense EVEN though the game was close for them to close in or take the lead. I am sure DeRozen will help in this regard.

@dominicnocito3077 18 дней назад

Great explanation. Total floor raiser and I think people just forget how good DeMar is, along with the fact that he has never played with a playmaking big as good as Sabonis. DeMar, Fox, Monk, and Keeg together with Domas facilitating is going to be a problem for any defense to handle. Insane to think most of big media won't admit it. I think if the Kings can pick up a solid stretch wing/big, they become the dark horse in the west. Only teams I'd be scared about is still the Pels and Twolves at that point.

@Law-of-EnTropy 18 дней назад

People use the same argument against I.Hart that he can't provide spacing for OKC and so may not be fit in there while discounting the fact that literally the reason why I.Hart had a sudden leap in value is the fact that he can be in a lineup full of shooters and still provide for the team beyond being able to shoot (or lack thereof). The dude is a literal body down the paint who can grab boards and drill points with his weird push shot that no one seems to figure out how to guard yet. Spacing is MORE than shooting threes

@seancooney8799 18 дней назад

Considering there are very few guards that can guard Fox one on one even having a defender that needs to stick with DeRozan is going to be huge .... Also can we also mention that the Kings now have two of the best clutch players in the NBA on their team .... Considering how many games come down to 2 to 6 points that alone will be huge. Also the contract is 3 years 76 million .. though the last year is only 10 million guaranteed .. for a player of his caliber that is great and east to trade the last year. This reminds me of the Sabonis trade were everyone was saying Kings made the worst trade possible. That didn't age well.

@BadQuotes 18 дней назад

DeRozan doesn't need to be a 3pt shooter, if he can pass the ball there are plenty of 3pt shooters on the floor at any time. Murry, Fox and whoever else is on the floor will be enough to shoot 3s. It helps having half the team attacking the basket and the rest ready to shoot 3s.

@jalynjones9136 12 дней назад

He can pass the ball and he’s still gonna be his same great self

@shamptown 17 дней назад

I've been absolutely baffled by all the negative takes on this trade for the kings. Derozen is the exact type of player they have been missing on offense: a bucket getter who can score at will in iso. People like to point out how long he keeps his dribble but with all the shooting surrounding him in Sacto (I think Fox's 3pt efficiency takes another jump this year) he's going to have a ton of opportunities to make plays alongside Fox and Sabonis. My only concern is how Fox, Monk, and Derozen will share the floor if they decide to start those three. Malik may be stuck in his sixth man role for another season, which wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.

@slimharden4143 18 дней назад

Fun fact: DeMar DeRozan has 86 less career points than Steph Curry (same draft class) while having SIGNIFICANTLY less 3pm. Heard Nick say that on his show the other day and it might be the most mind blowing stat I’ve ever heard. Glad to see my favorite player stacks up to some all time greats in that regard.

@adrianpillai6645 18 дней назад

Another thing DeRozan is good at is getting to the FT line and hitting them. Sabonis and Fox are 70+% FT shooters , so teams don't mind hacking them (plus they get few calls). DeRozen will draw fouls at a higher rate (making it even tougher on opponents to guard Fox and Monk and Sabonis), plus he can make FTs down the stretch with Monk (a 90% FT shooter). Harrison Barnes, on the other hand, did not draw many fouls.

And with the plethora of knock down 3 point catch and shoot players the Kings have in Fox, Monk, Murray, Lyles and Ellis they should be able to space the floor well at all times.

Once again the kings get trashed on after a significant move lmao. No matter what move we made for sabonis or no move at all we would've been trashed on. In this instance if we keep Barnes going into next season we get trashed on. We replace him with a 6 time allstar who can get buckets and playmake for the offense we sht on. Maybe it's because our one piece away needed to be a defensive minded player at the 4 but that is not off the table just because we got demar.
