everyone saying demar sucks in the playoffs but if u watched those games u can see he wins series drops 30+ and has the occasional horrible game when double teamed and when his teammates didn’t hit the open when shots he kicks it out- all in all he’d be a fire second option
He got the name defrozen for a reason
Big hate in the comments
derozan you know what you have and you know what you dont in that sense. he has a solid but not superstar offensive game. in the same tier as players like Paul George, Dame , Donnovan Mitchell to me in terms of steady second option who go to the playoffs but not really making deep runs most years
@@RestaurantPOSForMac Paul George was a 2-way player and three point threat who led his Pacers teams to multiple Eastern Conference Finals appearances (oh and he defended/beat Melo's Knicks to get there). In his prime, and still today, he is better and more proven than DeRozan. If it weren't for his Team USA injury, nobody would dream of comparing the two.
@@pex3 he ain’t better than demar
Melo gets it. Respect to Melo!
Demar is that you
Bout time…. Should’ve came to the Bulls with D. Rose
@@Irving-et9edfacts 2010s could’ve been a diff story by now
As a raptors fan I would love to see DeMar get a ring before he's done, regardless of where he gets it.
As a Raptors fan, I see that he was loyal to the franchise, showed love to the city and the community, but I hated watching him fail in the playoffs every year and was ecstatic when the team moved on (and immediately won a chip). The number of times he would get the ball and jack up a brick from the midrange...
@@pex3 Yea, it was after he left that Demar increased his efficiency. Coach Pop effect, not only has Demar grown in shooting aspect, but Demar is a way way better playmaker now as well, something where on the Raptors he was not cuz he was never tasked to.
Real recognise real. Shout out Melo
Wonder how they feel bout DEMAR to the Kings
As Bulls fan, I agree. Chicago should have pivoted off DeMar last year and sent him to a contender. Now all indications are pointing to him taking a BAG from the Bulls this summer and this team being in basketball hell for the foreseeable future 🥲
They can easily resign and trade him
@@freddycalipari4242 I mean, anyone can be traded true. But you run the risk of overpaying for him given his age (35), and then having to attach assets to trade him later to get rid of his contract.
Going to the spurs really elevated Demar game to a new level
New level? He hasn't made it out of the first round since the Raps traded him
@@pex3 that’s team based what do you expect from the Chicago bulls individually his game improved a lot
Pop trained him well.
@@pex3casual take
@@aironenise Not a casual take. In fact, you could single handedly point to Demar as the reason the Raptors failed to make it out of the first round in 2014 and 2015. Lowry was the most valuable player on the Brick Brothers Raptors, and he proved that in 2019. Look how many times Derozan got BENCHED during those playoff series. He was a black hole on offense and that's obvious to anyone who actually watched the games.
Love Melo.....and Romani's prospective
Real recognize real... love you melo
DeMar is my favorite player so had to watch
Respect to melo, he know how great demar is
Big fan of Melo. The way he played the game his toughness never scared of the big moments. Great role model to everyone. Carried himself well as a professional and as a husband and father. Thank you Melo for the great memories.
FACTS THE GOAT
Demar needs his accolades give the man more respect he does the most 👌🏾🙏🏾
I love this pod. Good shit Mel & Mero 🫡
"I'm glad DeRoz came home, ya'll didn't deserve him neither!" We getting him that championship in Sacramento!
Yeahh LeBronto was crazy times what’s worse is soon as Bron left …Chip. DeMar was prob sick sick. But bring him on over we got a cheesesteak for him! And I appreciate this podcast Melo was my dog comin in 03 til his last game I rocked w him. My go to sneak to ball in was the 2.5s I wore 15 I threw my sidekick at my tv when the pistons drafted darko over him even tho I hate the pistons. Beat my boy out of at least 2 chips. Not to mention he should have won ROY but the LeAssociation blocked that. Just wanna say u ma dog Melo I hope I can meet you one day!
I accidentally started watching this podcast now I can’t stop this the the most authentic hoops podcast
Wanted DeMar in Miami last few years man our spacing wouldn’t be the best but man he can score so easy man
Love me some melo❤
I think demar would fit on the lakers. Maybe less next year than maybe two seasons ago. Since age is catching up to them all. But derozan can operate in a way where he can draw attention because hes so good to getting to the elbow or high post.
MELO 🔥
I'm rooting for DeMar to get a chip!
That man 🤦🏾♂️👑
That's right, get him to Philly. DeMar is playin for a franchise that's been limited and below mediocre since D-Rose injury and departure.
And honestly, I can see DeMar in Philly doin great because of his mentality. DeMar and Embiid is a crazy combo! Man, I miss the competitive Bulls.... and I know DeMar is super loyal and owes the Bulls alot, but I think him with the 76ers sounds actually super nice!
#STAYME7O
Demar always gets thrown under the radar man dude is a hooper Fr .
It’s hilarious when Melo says that Philly has everything Demar needs to win, when Melo had everything in Chicago and Miami for Melo to win lol
One thing melo was never in Chicago
Or miami
deserve and earned are different
Man as a bulls fan , TRADE EVERYONE
Sucks that it didnt work in Chicago. As a bulls fan i loved how that team was originally setup.
Plus folks have to remember: Bron wasn't in the East anymore the year the Raptors won. Other than 2018, he always had better teams in the East. No one got past him for 8 straight years
There was so much going on with that Raptors championship. Like Kawhi traveling on that buzzer beater, so who knows what would’ve happened if they got that call right.And faced a Warriors team FULL of injured players. But you know…A win is a win either way so 🤷🏾♂️
@@CoolTra18 Way more than just one play goes into wins & losses. Review the tape of that game several calls change hands.
Kawhi wasn't in the East either for those 8 yrs.
But you're right he's always had the best teams, never went thru a team rebuilding process since his early years .
Cavs rebuilt then he came back, which was genius.
Plenty of people got past him... in the finals. The only conclusion you can draw from the info you presented is the east sucked. And it did. Regularly you had 2-3 teams at .500 in the east playoffs and even teams with losing record lol.
While this is true, it doesn't change the fact that DeRozan was abominable in the playoffs.
People aren't even necessarily expecting him to have beaten Bron; they just expected him to look like a star calibre player. Plenty of players have gone up against Bron in the East and though they lost put up a good fight. Think of Victor Oladipo or Paul George for instance. DeRozan always surrendered timidly.
De mar is still my absolute baller
I love melo but in no way shape or form did kahwi want to go to Toronto wtf
He's tragic in the playoffs though. I mean he's a nice guy and all and definitely very talented, but his playoff numbers are shocking.
There's a lot of players whose mid-range games come to the fore in the playoffs: Devin Booker, Kevin Durant, Jimmy Butler, Chris Paul, Jamal Murray and Kawhi Leonard are examples.
DeMar has an excellent midrange game, but it completely disappears in the post season.
Book?
@@vittiriowashington5211 Yes, Devin Booker.
NBA finals in 2021 and put up some absolutely monstrous games in last year's playoffs against the Nuggets.
He has his flaws, but it would be an insult to compare DeRozan to him. He is orders of magnitude better.
because he only knows one way to do it. and teams can stop him. thats why it wont ever work in the playoffs, especially now.
his process is the following : dribble the air out of the ball trying to get to his spot, IF he creates enough separation from his defender he chucks it, if not then proceeds to pump fake that shot to oblivion waiting for the defender to bite and jump in order to get a foul, IF defender doesn't bite next move is to search for a bail out pass with like 2" remaining on the clock.
in the playoffs defenders aint falling for that ish.
Excellent is overselling, he's above average at midrange
scoring goes down for most players a little . demar maybe has an occasional 15 point game in a series but his numbers are usually the same like 25 a game average in a series.
THAT MAN…😂
BRO WHAT IS THE OUTRO SONG???
DeMar is a vet...he deserves his flowrrs. Mad underrated. I wouldn't mind him going to Philly.
He's a good stat player but makes no one better on his team. His style is suited for 90s play
This is why Lonzo getting injured killed the dynamic of the Bulls chemistry in the rotation.
what air max colour way are those?
I’d understand if demar was balling out and losing to bron but he was putting up stinkers in those post season games and still did post Toronto. Difference is Kawhi game elevates in the playoffs and derozan game don’t
Thank you. I am happy Demar had kept getting paid, he seems like a good dude who does great things for the communities he's a part of. THAT SAID: anyone who watched him on the Raptors all those years knows, his game does not translate into winning playoff games.
@@pex3 yup like I hate doing this cuz he’s a cool down to earth great guy but people seem to have revisionist history of what Demar really was. Kawhi took that same spurs team when he was healthy to a conference finals and with demar they only made the playoffs once in 3 years and has only made the playoffs once in Chicago. And like u said his game doesn’t translate in the postseason. And he’s not doing defensively what Kawhi did. People forget demar got swept in 2018 by bron when Oladipo and that pacers team took bron to 7 and that young Celtics team without Kyrie and Hayward took them to 7 as well.
He played so bad he got benched for the final 15 minutes in one of the games
@@momame8258 yup game 3 when bron hit the game winner.
Melo is showing face finally
As a LA dude that hates the clippers if they get Demar that’ll be dope
I think Demar can take the Knicks over the top and get them to a championship they will have scoring from all 5 positions and they will be big and deep at every position
🚬 🚭 🚬 🚭 🚬 🚭
I think the Raptors would have won that ring if they kept Derozan instead of trading for Kawhi!
Now that the Kings have him, let's get him that ring!
Luka the best getting to spot melo bias here cuz Dmar play similar to him
0:08 he should have went home to the Lakers when he had the chance
Raptors roster around Demar did not support him. We had no shooters sorrounding him. We had Patrick Paterson and DeMarre Carroll who brick every shot. We did not have a stretch 5 back then. So it is not on DeMar that we did not win. The entire roster changed.
Melo 🏀🏀🏀 jumper
Look how they did Tacko ball
He right derozan had a Kyle Lowry but the main person guarding bron was a rookie OG and that’s when lebronto was born lol
Melo just described what would have happened if Detroit drafted him.
The bulls fuck around and go 20-9 rest of the season we rolling
Demar is more built to be a second option or maybe a 3rd but I don’t believe he can get us to a ring with the wat we are constructed especially with no Lonzo. But we definitely have the talent but can bulls be more consistent
Bring him back to Toronto
demarr got traded for leonard
leonard took the same team in toronto and won a championship IMMEDIATELY!!!
ppl was saying if leonard stayed they could have only gotten better and possibly won more championships
Kawhi didnt take the exact same team lol, toronto ended up getting danny green, and marc gasol, who were both pivotal in winning the chip in ‘19.
@@PR1NCETD0T Yeah the team that won in 2019 was not the same. Jonas Valanciunas was gone, Siakam was now a starter, Marc Gasol was now the starting 5, plus role players such as Jodie Meeks, and Patrick McCaw. New Head Coach, and an entirely new coaching staff.
MELO IF HE WANNA WIN 🥇
HE WOULD BE A AWESOME DEFENDER WHONIS DEROZAN A BAD DEFENDER?
Let Melo talk sheesh. so much interruption from his co-host
Ikr!!
it's Mero's style, I like it personally. I like Melo and I follow the NBA closely but I wouldn't be watching this podcast if Mero wasn't on it.
Imagine if the bucks could move middleton and get De'mar..that team would rival any big 3
He'll no! Demarco worse than middleton. Middleton can't shoot, but atleasst he plays better than demar.
@JDMluvDSMkila - Middleton when healthy is better fit on bucks just based on his range and Giannis lack of range shooting wise . Demar and Giannis imo would have spacing issues offensively.
DEMAR IS THE CLOSEST TO KOBE THEIR EVER WILL BE
He wants to stay in chi lol so i think zach to ny would work for 24 and 25 then the bulls be great with three first
Toronto took them one year to 6 games. God America’s love to dog the one Canada team.
2010-2020 top two winning franchises
Golden state
Toronto
Toronto has done something melo was let able to do in his career, win a title
Demar used to bust to raptors ass when they traded him to the spurs.
How the hell does butler not accept effort when he admits publically he doesn’t play hard for 82 games a year?
Watched demar all this years in Toronto he did what he could and masai didn’t build around him like he did kawhi with ibaka and gasol
Tyrese Maxey is not 6’2😂😂
A mid range player could never play with embiid it’s not enough space on the floor
MELO SAYS WITHOUT SAYS DEROZAN ISNT A
HOF PLAYER 😂😂
IF HE GETS A RING 💍 MAYBE
I hope you’re speaking on experience, Melo. Cause the Bulls had the same setup for you…fuck the money and defense just come in and score but you chose New York
Demar is not that dude that can carry a team to a ring .He’s a great 3rd option tho
2nd option
Steph a wing guy
Is it me or is the cohost annoying
He needs to say less
Didnt melo choose money over everything
Bomani commentary sound so out of place here
Let’s be real.. lebron was the reason demar couldn’t get it done. Lebron had the east on lock for a decade.
SACRAMENTO!!!!!!!!!!!!! who cares about philly
He who cannot be named. the boogey man, lebron.
Melo's saying he doesn't know anything about playing pro/NBA-basketball, without saying it = DD does nothing for his teams, shoots meaningless shots, he knows hold "0" barring on the games outcome + he disappears throughout the games because he's afraid of the responsibility of being the leader, who everyone depends on for results that matter = Melo was the same, he just hasn't realized it yet
Melo not the same as demar. He wasn't an inconsistent chucker who missed alot of shots alot of times. He was a volume shooter who can get hot in a pinch and annihilate a team. DD is nowhere near that. That scrub can't even get 25 on a bad night.
I think personality wise Demar is a similar to someone like duncan or dirk. hes by all accounts a good teammate, has never had any off the court stuff but not a leader either. he does show up to play for every team hes been on. hes not ben Simmons or Kyrie or something like that. I will say Demar is maybe less naturally talented and not some high IQ player.
@@RestaurantPOSForMac Duncan & Dirk are champions
Espn cooked your brain.
@@freddycalipari4242 you're talking about yourself obviously
Demar should stay in Chicago.
DeRozan would've won wit Ibaka n Gasol.
Siakam had a breakout season and was at worst their 3rd best player behind lowry in the playoffs
@@RestaurantPOSForMac forgot he was the difference maker. All the more to my point.
No he wouldn’t have 😂 derozan chokes too much in the playoffs
The name of this channel is way too long
Don’t no one give a fuck bout no Melo podcast
I reallly be trying to like this show because of Melo but y’all be trying to insert yourself so much just let the man talk.
The only reason they won is Cuzz bron left.
de rozan is mj if he played in the 90’s
Mid-range master? LMAO
DeMar is a cancer for all the teams he plays for. Got rid of him in TO and then boom, they win the chip with someone better (Kawhi). Kept the Spurs youth from developing, (although did become less selfish of a player after his Spurs stint) then gets traded to the Bulls and single handedly ruined Lavine's career making him look bad and basically stole his team and the heart of Bulls fans to the point Zach wants out now. As a result he now hindering the youth like Coby and Ayo from fully developing with his crazy iso ball and obsession with being 'the man', 'king of the 4th' and all that sh!t they made him believe he was smh... DeMar is 2nd or 3rd option on a contender I agree, but he needs to stop thinking he that dude cause he not and that's why Bulls fans and Bulls media getting tired of him rn...
honestly the problem with the bulls is lavine and lonzo not demar. Lavine and lonzo are always injury prone so the bulls just have to play with a past his prime demar.
even when lavine plays well and is healthy the team loses. And same in the years in Toronto really. kyle lowry was his second best player. Siakam and Van fleet was just drafted and not getting minutes, Marc Gasol and ibaka too demar didnt get to play with. how many iconic kyle lowry moments or games come to mind ? and demar has almost never missed the playoffs whereas players llke Anthony Davis who play d and are considered superstars are out of the playoffs 8 out of 10 years in their prime. Dame misses the playoffs maybe half the time. To me Demar is closer to Paul George, Siakam, Aldridge, or Dame like if he has some pieces around him you can have a few 50+ win seasons if they are your leading scorer but he hes not going to single handedly carry a team if he has no real help.
@@RestaurantPOSForMac Yeah Dame Lillard has only been the WCF once, he also has been swept in the Playoffs 3X, while AD has missed the playoffs 7X in 12 seasons. Only twice has AD been past round 1. I have to criticize AD, and Dame harshly as you said, they are considered superstars but they are also Top 75 players. Yeah also Billy Donovan is such a terrible coach, he has costed the Bulls so many games with his bad lineups and lack of late game adjustments.
Also what the gentleman forgot to say he makes it sound like the Raptors traded Kawhi and they just won the chip all of sudden, what he failed to mention is that the Raptors had a brand new coach in Nick Nurse, a new coaching staff, also the Eastern Conference was different, the 2018-19 Raptors had 8 new players on the team. See I am from Toronto, and I watched the Raptors for over 16 years, people cannot fool me.
Tyrese Maxey is kinda sorta a “hybrid” player based off his play style… they must don’t really watch him
He like James harden lite back when he used to come off the bench in okc
Can’t subscribe to this channel
This show is trash, they need a player host who knows how to win, not a yes man
I think derozan overhyped asf as a "midrange master" he not close to the greats in terms of mid range and shaun livingston was real life automatic, kd another one. Automatic.
U buggin
@@jimtib8206 nah I've watched his game. It's lackluster. And I haven't seen his recent games, but checked it out and it looked like he was forcing some shots. 11-24, 8-19 that's not "elite midrange" takes
@@geraldking9385what standard are you holding him to ? He's not top 10 but he's a scoring machine. Demar is a shot taker/maker, he'll end up with 25k points in his career. Not everyone is Bron/KD
@@jimtib8206 he's a scoring machine, but the video is titled "midrange master" like his midrange is super automatic. He's good at midrange sure, but to call him a midrange master is farfetched. Devin booker is more close in terms to that than him and he hasn't even won a chip or even really been that guy on his team. Cp3 was the leader that time he went to the finals and kd is sort of their leader now, but point is there are levels to the midrange. One that u can see the minute the ball leaving their hand, oh yeah that's going in verses, he may or may not make that in.
This guy bugging. Box score guy. DEMAR is the King of the midrange. Best footwork in the midrange. Even KD himself acknowledged.
DEROZAN TAKE 22 SECONDS 😂
TO SCORE AND DOESNT RUN 🏃🏽♂️ BACK ON DEFENSE 😂
MAN IS TRASH 🗑️ SORRY
HE IS A NEW AGE VINCE CARTER
HE NEEDS TO PLAY A LOT HARDER 😢
Love you Melo, but you was a bum on defense. It s your podcast so you can paint the picture how you like, but this show is constantly clowning defense as if it s not equally important. You get a bucket or you get a stop. Don‘t matter. The result matters at the end
bomani a goofy acting like bron didnt leave the cavs the same time kawahi came to the raptors.
it would of been the same result for kawahi boy got lucky the king wasnt there
Bottom line, DeRozan can't be a team's main piece. He's a second option, period.
Is he a second option? Or does he need to come off the bench?
I agree 💯💯 % …. He would play good with embid … only problem is Demar would start getting big headed wanting the ball tooo much … & forcing shots ..
@@bigbossmanerezzo8148he wouldn’t, considering he’s never played with anyone better than him.
Nah he definitely not a second option, probably a bench player or third option
@@bigbossmanerezzo8148 As a raptors fan, you're not winning anything with Demar. He's a third option at best at this point. I hated when he would take forced shots during the last few minutes during the playoffs.
Terrible playoff performer, can't finish through contact and crumbles under the physicality of the playoff. Garbage defender.
You forgot to mention: can't shoot threes and only passes when he is forced to (at least he knows how to now)
Carmelo loves black players
Melo you bloated
