From everything I've read and seen, he puts forth the necessary effort on D, to be very effective at the next level.
But ya, I think he's got the perfect body to be a Vert Good wing in the league for many years.
He's not TOO big, where his quickness and abilities become effected, but is big enough to slide over and guard a PF on the switch if he needs too, and quick enough to keep up with the fastest of Wings in the L.
We need him.

To be honest, when I read the headline "Demar wants to be the leader of the franchise", the cynical part of me came out. I felt that Demar needs to demonstrate a better game first, then we can talk about becoming the leader.
Then I watched the video, and his exact quote was ... "a leader on the team". That may seem like semantics, but it's more representative of what I want out of DeRozan. As the No. 2 scorer who has past defensive issues, his statement sounds more like he wants to prove his value, by improving the aspects of the game that have been lacking - including defense and 3 point shooting. That to me, is more demonstrative of being a leader.

How about the Mo Pete three at washington? Or the AP rainbow against the same team?
Its all coming back to me know! and no, im not singing.
