The energy is so much better when you have someone who appreciates sneakers, the culture and being a guest on the show.

[jivillain]

He’s such a nice guy. He brings friendly vibes everywhere he goes.

[Drose]

DeMar has brought so much energy back to Chicago & the Bulls man. Seems like such a down to earth humble person. Hoping he gets MVP this season, this man deserves it! 🔥

[lucashull]

That cashier had to be the most laid back, chill, and non awkward cashier so far on complex

[veesofficial]

I miss Derozan on the raptors!! Really hope he wins a ring before he retires, he's humble, hardworking and deserves it!

[ChanceJolivette]

So happy to see an enthusiastic guest who actually likes shoes this episode

[blaxisez]

can we also take a moment and appreciate the fact that he's supporting his friends! He bought so many "Honor The Gift' clothes, which was created by Russell Westbrook. BIG UPS

[patrykrusin]

A lot better episode than the previous one, please invite more pople like this.

[j_lacourt]

We definitely need more episodes like this… you can tell he has the knowledge and passion for the sneaker culture. Especially being a hooper! 🔥

as a raptors fan im glad derozan is getting the attention he deserves, we knew he was special, now everybody knows

[nateosborn]

He was so humble yet dropped a bag with his knowledge of Jordan-it was refreshing to hear his own experiences. MVP ☝🏼

[SA-opxu]

I really like the fact Demar and Joe know the importance of the 16, 17s and the whole experience with having the suitcase. If someone from Jordan Brand is reading this its time to release the 16 and 17s, I'm tired of seeing just 1s to 4s. I understand its your cash cow, but people, especially causal hoopers like myself still desire the shoes Jordan wore in his tenure with the wizards.

[alwayzdolo]

My boy Demar been getting hella press/publicity for the right reasons. Well deserved🙌 great season so far

[seize]

Real ones know DeMar is a true OG when it comes to wearing Kobe's. Man has been wearing them for YEARS

[dtoonz]

Always been a huge DeMar fan. Super humble and a beast on the court.

[danieloceans]

DeMar finally getting the respect he deserves. WE GOT YOU DeMar

[Drea_A]

Kobe always believed in DeRozan 🥲 I loved how he always supported up & coming LA players. I wish he could see how he's playing now

[primcebangcoyo]

DeMar so humble man I wish my lakers got him last offseason tho. Great interview Joe!

[haire-gordon]

From Compton to Chicago DeMar will always be humble. Great episode.
