CLEVELAND—Another dose of public disrespect isn’t going to bother DeMar DeRozan.
After seven seasons with the oft-ignored Toronto Raptors, he’s used to it.
The Raptors, opening their first NBA Eastern Conference final here tonight, awoke to see slathered over social media a poll run by a CBS Sports website asking who would win the NBA title:
- Warriors.
- Thunder.
- Cavaliers.
- Other.
Yes, other.
“It’s never going to stop with us, no matter what we do, no matter how far we go,” DeRozan said with a shrug at the team’s shootaround at Quicken Loans Arena this morning.
