Derrick White: Out 6-8 weeks

**Pavlov** · 10-22-2018

I don't feel like dealing with trolling gots today, tbh.

If that's what you're calling me, why are you dealing with me?

Gay is going on 33 yrs old. With his recent problems with injuries, Spurs need to sell high on him this year to a desperate team trying to add a piece at the deadline for a playoff push.

This front office has the bed outside of the draft the past 3 summers and it was a factor for Kawhi to start thinking about LA.

Gay is probably worth a 2nd considering Evans, a better, more desirable archetype, could only fetch that last season. He has more value to the Spurs, since they're clearly focused on trying to make the playoffs.

Way too early to give up on Poeltl. He's been shockingly terrible, but mostly set up to fail. A rim runner needs a playmaker(s) and shooters to thrive. Use him to salary dump Mills and the Leonard trade looks even worse.

They have, but if it was a factor, he should have had the balls to say it to them or better yet attempt to prevent some of the damage by asserting himself.

maybe they don’t do nothing because White will come back soon ( pop said 2-4 weeks ).

There's no excuse. As I alluded to, just having another NBA caliber PG and/or wing could create more compe ion and unlock more lineups possibilities. They're so limited in what they can do right now.

This guy is already halfway into his 24th year and he doesn't even have 18 games played here. A typical RC Drunkford draft pick if there ever was one.

**Pavlov** · 10-22-2018

He'll be fine.

Yeah, I'm tired of getting a bunch of old rookies. Jonathan Simmons was like 26 years old in his first year too.

Jabroni hasn't learned anything from last year.

**objective** · 10-24-2018

Jabari thought Dejounte walking next to RC the night of his injury without crutches or a boot was a positive sign

**Mr. Body** · 10-24-2018

We need some of our young guards back, asap.

Just told my wife this. Patty and Forbes on defense look so heavy footed. I'd rather have a Lonnie Walker athlete darting all over the floor even if they sometimes turning the ball over.

Our team seriously looks .500, but I have faith White/Lonnie will make a big difference.

**Spurs fever** · 10-24-2018

I see a lot of Lonnie support but does anyone even know if he was gonna be part of the rotation even before his injury? Just asking.

I don't think he was. Doesn't mean he didn't deserve to (in the eyes of some of us). But without Murray, at least we'd be able to see him develop in a lost season.

No. Spurs fans are delusional tbh.

**BackHome** · 10-24-2018

Next draft is really important so before the season ends I want to know what we have with:
Walker - can he stay healthy and can he replace Forbes and Mills?
White - Can he play PG and can he stay healthy and can he be a legit back up?
Metu - Can he show enough to get playing time real playing time?

I am disappointed in Poodle man when a two way contract guy Eubanks gets more playing time and does better it’s not looking good

must get rid of all the vets who have failed, stop with the stupid loyalty contract program... time to go youth and more athletic, every other team out there is faster and bigger then the spurs...

With a healthy Dijon, White, Forbes and (of course) Patty (not to mention DeMar), Lonnie was going to spend the season in Austin, imho.

**HankChinaski** · 10-24-2018

With the depleted back court yeah I think he gets an opportunity to, but he will spent time up in Austin to evaluate his recovery.

I think they will out of overall necessity he is going to get minutes due to a lack of depth an to lower minute usage of the backcourt.

Initially I thought Austin bound with a couple opportunities to prove his ability to get minutes. Just not right away.

**stu scotts eye** · 10-24-2018

I think it was one of the bright sides, if there was one of DJ going down, is having White and Lonnie Walker thrown into the fire and growing that way. Not spending all year going to the NBDL as walker would have.

And the alternative is what my plain eyes see now and its not looking good. Demar is the only wing that can facilitate and make something for someone.

Alot of this is chemistry of course, but I just don't see how we compete with this roster. But ill judge better by the holidays.

Yep. I want Lonnie to play no matter what. He's got the most potential out of all the young guys. Might as well just play him. And also, the main reason I want him to play is because i think he has more defensive potential than anyone else on the team not named Dejounte.

**John B** · 10-25-2018

I think he’ll play. We need all the defense that we could get in the guard position. Does he start along side Derozan though? I think Forbes is earning all his minutes and proving to be a viable option next to Derozan and Aldridge. He’s opening up the lanes

**pookenstein** · 10-25-2018

How is everybody sure White and Walker will see meaningful minutes this season? We all know Pop will play Mills wether he deserves it or not and Forbes so far is one of the bright spots on the roster. Don't see Pop cutting his minutes.

**objective** · 10-25-2018

Don't know if I'll watch any more games live until White or Walker get back and play.

It's so tiresome to see Mills. I'd rather just check the score and fast forward past the Mills minutes.

**SAGirl** · 10-25-2018

Pop not even trying to give an estimate on his return. The team hasn't put out any kind of statement of expected time aaik
