DeMarre Carroll was signed by the Toronto Raptors to be the LeBron James stopper come playoff time. Unfortunately, that isn’t who he is. Carroll’s $60M/4-year contract looks worse by the day. It’s easy to say DeMarre hasn’t bounced back after an injury-riddled season last year. In fact, Carroll has been significantly worse from the offensive side of the ball this season. On Wednesday, he finally got pulled from the starting lineup in game two against the Cavs after starting the last seven playoff games.
Despite coming off the bench, Carroll played almost four more minutes in this game than when he started in game one. DeMarre was 0-6 with no points but managed to get two steals and a block. He wasn’t good in this game but wasn’t the reason for the loss with only a plus/minus of -2. The Raptors lost this game because they didn’t play team defense. Even though Norman Powell played LeBron James pretty well in the first quarter, it didn’t matter. The Cavs still managed to open up a big lead early with their supporting cast.
