Why is everyone mad over this trade (if it goes down)? Derozan >>>>> Davis. Sure ED has progressed a ton this year but he's still very raw. As is Derozan, but in my eyes Derozan has a way higher ceiling.
And yes Derozan and Gay play similar games but so what? When you have Lowry, Valanciunas, A.Johnson, Ross, Anderson on the team, having two skilled swingmen in Derozan/Gay is very usefull.
If one of them is off his game (Derozan has been extremely inconsistent) then you have another who can take over.
Valanciunas will play C for us and A.Johnson will take over ED's role.
I for one welcome this trade with open arms. If only we can get rid of Bargnani instead of Calderon though...
