Don't snooze on DeRozan as a Spur based on what you saw in the playoffs against the Cavaliers. There's more to DeRozan's game, and San Antonio appears the perfect destination to unlock it under the tutelage of defensive-minded coach Gregg Popovich.
Forget Popovich for a moment and think about Spurs assistant Chip Engelland, who deserves much of the credit for developing Kawhi Leonard into a 38.6 percent career shooter from range. Working with Engelland, DeRozan won't abandon the 3-pointer in the postseason like last year. Plus, DeRozan can lean on LaMarcus Aldridge to do the work in the midrange. -- Michael C. Wright
