  • Terrence Ross VS DeMar DeRozan

    Midway through the season, compare Terrence Ross rookie stats versus DeMar DeRozan's rookie stats

    Rookie Campaign

    Ross
    7.1ppg
    2.2rpg
    0.8apg

    DeRozan
    8.6ppg
    2.9rpg
    0.7apg

    Both have quite similar stats, both play the guard spot while neither is a 3 that can guard big elite 3 like Lebron, Carmello, Gay, or Granger, one is a slasher (DeRozan), one is a streaky shooter (Ross). Personally, I think Ross will have a higher ceiling, given time, he could turn to a Ray Allen or Reggie Miller but plays with defense, let's just hope Ross won't hit the rookie wall in his sophomore season but who knows. When Ross plays more than 20min per game, he's contributing at a higher EFF than DeRozan in his rookie campaign so obviously, there is the ceiling, and it seems he's a lot more coachable, less frustrated, more of a calm player than DeRozan. Although, I wish both will stay with the Raptors while perhaps in a few years, these two can make some noise in the league.

    wouldn't that be a sophomore wall?

              i don't know what to expect from derozan down the line. hes been given a few more minutes every season but production hasn't really changed at all. i'm hoping he reaches at least 20ppg by the end of this season, just so i can have a piece of mind that theres actually some growth happening.

              i get that the casey strat is to share the ball which might mitigate his numbers, but we still have to depend on a reliable scorer to actually win games and i really hope derozan fills that role.

              i mean 12 points in the 1st quarter of the magic game and then only 3 more points TOTAL for the remainder of the game? bah.

              i hope T Ross gets more minutes, but right now, raptors can't afford to have rookies on the floor.

                  Why not!?!?! yes the injury to Rondo, opens the playoff widow a smidge, but our odds are still quite small. Even if we make the playoffs this year it's not like we are going to make any noise. For this franchise to make the next step we are going to need serious contribution for JV and Ross. The question I would ask, would be is it better for their development to get more minutes/game if that means we miss the playoffs, or give them limited minutes in the hopes that we make the playoffs, because the limited minutes they get in the playoffs will provide a better experience? And I think it's a tough call, because there's no guarantee that giving them limited minutes will result in any more wins.

                  Personally, I'd rather let them play, if they learn a lot and we still squeeze into the playoffs that's ideal, but even if we don't get there this year we would be in better shape next year than if we played them limited minutes and still didn't make the playoffs.

                  It's not necessarily fair to compare first year numbers since there are still 38 games left to play this season but they are fairly similar. I actually expected ross to be more slightly more productive but that's not what this data shows. I think it would be difficult to say that Ross is clearly better than Demar was in his rookie campaign.

                  EDIT: sorry it's hard to read but you can see the stats in an easy to understand format by visiting basket-ball.reference.com which is where these stats come from.

                    Ross needs to either gain more confidence or learn to shoot better. His percentages are pretty brutal.. I know he's a rookie but those numbers shouldn't deserve starter minutes (DeMar shouldn't have been a starter either as a rookie though).

                    The one advantage DeMar had over Ross was his ability to get fouled. Although DeMar doesn't dunk as much as he should he still got to the rim a lot more than Ross does.. and those points in the paint are worth a lot more than those shots from the outside - especially since there is a far greater chance that the ball will go in when shot inside the paint.

                    I do agree that Ross makes DeMar expendable though. It's a big reason why DeMar's extension this early was idiotic.

                        When Ross gains some experience and gets comfortable in the league, he can easily take Derozan's place in the starting unit. Derozan can then be traded. If he(Demar) continues playing the way he is, they should get something nice for him.

                          I feel like we have similar situation, maybe not as good, as what Indiana has, with Granger and George. I think we should also follow a similar format as they've done, letting George develop off the bench for his first couple of years, and now look at him. Granger is easily expandable for them now. If we could be patient with Ross for a couple of years, then Derozan becomes expandable, and we can get a good return for him in the future.

                            Let's not forget that DeRozan had a double team magnet (i.e Bosh) to help his offense as a rookie. Ross doesn't have that luxury.
