White did play some in the playoffs, and played well when he got the chance, especially on offense. He got beat on a couple back door cuts to the basket and Pop pulled him.
He just finished playing for the national team two days ago. I still wouldn't expect him to show up for the Las Vegas portion. Can't expect him to play without a signed contract.
Solid observation, you're right.
What I would do:
Murray, White, Green, Gay, Aldridge.
Pretty much the best line-up we have as of now.
Like Tony and Manu, learning soccer in your youth helps your footwork.
Finally watched the tape of the Utah-Spurs game. While I dont think Walker covered himself with glory I don’t think he was the bust some here seem to be panicking about. He showed some very good tools on defense with his length and quickness, moved his feet well, disrupted some plays. On offense he missed a lot of shots but his form was good and the shots weren’t Murrayesque in being nowhere close to the basket. He seemed to get a little more aggressive on offense toward the end putting the ball on the floor. I think it’s WAY to early to pass judgement on him.
Allen did look like a good pick up for the Jazz.
Showcasing him for Spurs?
Or their replacement for Saric.
Yup. Too early to tell. Lonnie showed some good flashes in defensive-end since his offense is already decent and somehow better compared to the other current Spur. I mean it's an 18th pick, it's not like you'll instantly expect him to be star or instant contributor. I'll more going to panic if I'm a Hawks fan, they traded Luca (who is still a question mark as well) to Tray who already showed some disappointment (chucker, defensive liability) in his first two games considering there's a lot of expectation to him.
I get the youthful exuberance of White and his hair, but he needs to go bald. Seriously. It looks like a black wildfire is chasing his head right now.
He's too young to accept he's balding already (common problem imo)... I'd say, Let him enjoy the last of his mane b4 he can't have an any, specially if his lady friend doesn't have a problem.
Yeah.. if the significant other enjoys it (if there is one and she's a damn good one...), then it's all good, I guess. Not going to generally argue with that.

Hes got small hands for sucha tall guy!
From the vision I've seen last year & this year, I think Derrick White will have the ball in his hands more than Murray. It's not that he's dominating summer league & g-league, it's the fact that he's polished in all areas & has good instincts & vision. He's handles are tight, footwork is good, shot is good, but most importantly, he's able to make multiple decisions about whether to shoot or pass very decisively. He's not overly quick or athletic, but he could be a Jamaal Tinsley (but with a better jumper) type when he was playing really well for 3 or 4 seasons in Indiana.
Poor man's Austin Daye? Are we playing Talent Limbo?
Derrick White has to be the most overrated Spur in ST history tbh.
His skin color is light enough that I thought you might give him a chanceDerrick White has to be the most overrated Spur in ST history tbh.
Man too late now obviously but if we could get a do over....
