[Johnson] DeMar DeRozan: “I can’t fake it. I’m beyond frustrated. Everybody in this locker room is frustrated.” (alien.top)

DeRozan took exception to Pascal Siakam attempting a 3-point shot with 3 seconds left and the Raptors leading by 12 points when Siakam could've dribbled out the clock. DeRozan angrily chastised the Raptors bench and coach Darko Rajakovic, who told coach Billy Donovan that Siakam attempted the shot because point differential matters for In-Season Tournament ramifications.

The Raptors actually had been eliminated from In-Season Tournament advancement before the game, but apparently, word didn't get to Rajakovic and Siakam.

"I don’t care about no In-Season Tournament points, none of that. Just respect for the game," DeRozan said. "If the roles was flip-flopped and I had the ball, hold it. It is what it is."

Between this statement and also talking about how he takes pride in not needing to take many threes DeMar seems like the ultimate oldhead in the NBA lol

DeMar definitely got that old head mentality but he still a good dude and seems to get a lot of respect around the league

If there's time on the clock you can score, if you don't like it then make sure your team is up at the end of the game. whiny ass bitch
