I don't think anybody said that. The more offensive options you have, the better.
But having a player that is only effective with the ball in his hands and that is absolutely no shooting threat on the perimeter (DeRozan) together with a high usage playmaker like Luka who's spot-up shooting qualities are currently average at best is not a good combination. Luka needs shooters around him that draw defenders to the perimeter and hit when left open to help on or double Luka (DeRozan can not do that) and at least one of them should be able to put the ball down and create plays as a second option (DeRozan can do that).
