Hang in there buddy, you’re bound to be right on your assessment of some player. You know, it’s a blind pig/acorn-type thing.
If White gonna consistently play like this, I might have to redact my opinion. But I ain't wrong to this point all the same.

George hill was always a poor mans version of George hill.
Poor man's george hill? Maybe poor man's Paul George!
derrick white showing more upside then say murray
Derrick white is the best all around player on the spurs
The birth of the opposing White- Murray fan boy clubs. Now that Manu’s retired and Parker’s gone we needed a replacement.
Let's see D White hit double digit scoring average at least before you get to talking, buddy.
Let’s see Jimmer make it out of summer camp before you assess another player.![]()
Coming at me with your -ass alt.
In the third quarter, and half of the fourth, Stevens had Smart bring up the ball, and Kyrie playing off of it. White had his ass locked down. Wow.
Locked Kyrie the down, made life for anybody that he guarded tbh, this guy is a ing stud in the making. Hope he stays healthy.
Who is this Derrick White?
stfu with your trash takes already got
George Hill was/is a choker. Unless he was playing the Mavericks, but he was dog against Phoenix and Memphis.
I still have to see White in the postseason but he has a potentially higher ceiling than IUPUI.
Can’t wait to see the Murray/White defensive combo next year. Going to be brutal.
He's the guy who wasn't over himself last year and it wasn't fair to the team to give him minutes.
That's why there was so much Mills & Forbes backcourts and Mills in general last season.
Or, just maybe, White wasn't as good a player last year as he is now. How do you know that all that time in Austin wasn't exactly what he needed?
Stop making that much sense. Surely Pop ed him over merely out of silly loyalties and some such nonsense.
Tonight again proves White has a brighter future than Hill
Because it's what Pop did to Hill and Splitter. You think Splitter needed a year in garbage time after being MVP of the best league in Europe, right?
I watched White in the gleague, he could have played minutes last year

Did you see his post game interview in which he acknowledged his time spent in D league contributed to his success and allowed him to get comfortable ect.
White is looking more and more like a complete player, his individual/off ball/help defense is much better than Hills imo too. Hill's defense was always overrated because of his length.

Besides, if he says anything different it's a sign he's not over himself and needs to be humbled. I bet if I went back I could find similar quotes from Splitter when asked about whether his first season spent watching was helpful.

But some might believe that the mature 23 year old who was pac-12 defensive team was completely clueless with no ability to contribute and only learned how to play the day after last season ended.
There's a reason why some people were calling for him to play last year ... It's because he looked like he could play.
That's an argument for exactly what happened, as opposed to what you wished had happened. G-League talent isn't NBA talent, but it's a step above NCAA talent and it lets players learn the sets during actual game-speed action instead of just riding the bench.
