After an injury-plagued offseason, San Antonio Spurs’ All-Star duo – LaMarcus Aldridge and DeMar DeRozan – know no one is going to feel sorry for them once the start of the 2018-19 NBA regular-season gets underway next week. “Nobody is going to feel sorry for us,” DeRozan said following the Spurs’ preseason win over Orlando. “Nobody is going to make nothing else easier on us.”
This rash of injuries puts the Spurs on shaky ground to start the new season with the team’s home-opener against Minnesota looms. Said DeRozan, “We can’t use that as an excuse. We have to use that as motivation and I understand that every single guy that goes out there and dresses up has to do a little bit more.”
Jeff McDonald: Pop on DeMar DeRozan’s transition: “He’s turned out to be maybe the best passer on our team, frankly.”
Jeff McDonald: But also this from Pop on DeRozan: “He’s trying to find teammates and blend in and understand what the offense is and how we’re going to play. But when the real lights go on, we need him to score. I’m sure he’ll be ready to do that.”
Tom Orsborn: Casey on DeRozan adjusting to #Spurs “He’s at home. He loves his teammates. He loves his team. He likes the fact that I think everybody has kind of counted San Antonio out, which I am not one of those. I think they are going to be a very good team in the Western Conference.”
