DeRozan Agrees With James:
Chicago Bulls star DeMar DeRozan has agreed with LeBron James’ assessment that there are “a lot of sorry motherf–kers” in the NBA.
James made the comment in March after watching his son, Bronny James, play in a high school game.
“My son is definitely better than some of these cats I’ve been watching on league pass today,” James tweeted.
DeRozan was asked about James’ tweet during an appearance on Podcast P with Paul George.
“We do got a lot of sorry motherf–kers in the league,” DeRozan said. “Being in the league so long, you realize how many mother f–kers don’t love the game of basketball. Who take it for granted. Who feel so entitled.”
DeRozan said that he has seen a lot of players in the NBA who are more interested in their social media following or their endorsement deals than they are in winning basketball games.
“It’s like, ‘Bro, you’re not good,'” DeRozan said. “You know what I mean? I definitely got Bron’s standpoint of that, because you’d be surprised.”
DeRozan Calls Out Entitled Players:
DeRozan also called out NBA players who are entitled and don’t want to put in the work.
“There’s a lot of guys in this league who think they’re entitled to be here,” DeRozan said. “They think they’re entitled to play minutes, they think they’re entitled to start, they think they’re entitled to get paid. But they don’t put in the work.”
DeRozan said that he has seen a lot of players in the NBA who are talented but don’t have the work ethic to succeed.
“It’s a lot of talent in this league,” DeRozan said. “But there’s a lot of talent that doesn’t work hard. And that’s the difference.”
DeRozan’s Comments Spark Debate:
DeRozan’s comments have sparked a debate on social media. Some people agree with him, while others disagree.
Those who agree with DeRozan say that he is speaking the truth. They say that there are a lot of players in the NBA who are more interested in their personal brand than they are in winning basketball games.
Those who disagree with DeRozan say that he is being disrespectful to NBA players. They say that there are a lot of hard-working players in the NBA who are trying to make a living.
DeRozan’s Comments Are a Reminder of the High Standards of the NBA
DeRozan’s comments are a reminder of the high standards of the NBA. The NBA is the best basketball league in the world, and it only takes a few bad players to ruin the experience for everyone else.
DeRozan’s comments are also a reminder that the NBA is a business. NBA teams are businesses, and they are looking to make a profit. They are not in the business of losing money, and they are not in the business of developing players who are not going to help them win.
The NBA is a great league, but it is not perfect. There are always going to be players who are not good enough, and there are always going to be players who are not willing to put in the work. But the NBA is also a league that rewards hard work and dedication. If you are willing to work hard and dedicate yourself to the game, you can achieve anything.
