damn it u guys got me wrong
im not saying demar is mj and bruno is pippen
im saying that the raptors should operate to have them filling those roles
where demar is playing in the mid-range, high post area and gets a lot of post ups
and bruno is guarding the best wing, shoots 3s, gets cuts to the basket, crashes the glass etc.
like pippen, bruno is a gym rat and will keep learning by working with Demar
i think in the future as lowry's game sort of slows down (age and point guards with his style of play lose a touch or two) we should build our offense like this, with Ross being a 6th man type of guy, getting minutes at SG & SF

I would love to see Derozan taking shots off of screens and posting up much more. In that sense, I agree with you.
Bruno right now is a 3&D player with plenty of upside. He is a project right now, so until then, I would simply replace Bruno with Ross, as he(Ross) DOES guard the best wing, shoots 3s, and has potential to become a good rebounder.
He needs to work on his midrange and finishing ability.I know this may be a bit controversial but I think the Raptors have proven that they're the best team in the NBA from Canada

i love demar and bruno but they won't even come close to either of those players talent/success. it just is what it is. will they become one of the better swing tandems in the league? that's a more interesting question.

Come on guys, he clearly didn't mean can they be as good as Jordan/Pippen. As he said, he just meant their roles.
It's September, this thread isn't half as crazy as the stuff that's been said on here in the last couple of months.

Both Bruno and Pippen have long arms and are great mobile defenders. Both have good 3 point shooting and were projects coming into the league.
With time and developement, do you think Bruno & DD, not DD & Ross, is the future of the Raptors ?
