How Cold Are DeRozan and Gay?

[jonathanlambert33]

Before the season, Demar Derozan had this to say about himself and Rudy Gay:

we dont have to worry about scoring nothing, none of that because we can score the ball at will

Well, I dont know if you have heard, but Demar Derozan and Rudy Gay are having a bit of trouble with scoring the ball (and its not a matter of lack of will). Its understandable if youve forgotten; all the face-palming and non-social drinking probably wiped it from your memory. Well, fear not, heres a reminder:

Pretty cold.
 
Defensively the team has been doing well though and that has allowed the Raptors to stay in games.

Great night from DeRozan tonight. Produced in every stat line pretty much and shot 6-11 from the field. Gay also took less shots tonight (4-10) and managed to get to the line and went 5-5. Hopefully this continues.

Gay sucks

59.1 % from the field and 37 points for DeRozan. I never thought he was ever inefficient - just a bad start to the season.

I think we could take DeRozan off from this now. He's been pretty good lately, shot really good tonight vs Philadelphia.
