Derrick having his best game as a Celtic tonight. He’s been huge for them on the road with Marcus Smart in foul trouble, especially defensively. Been a good offensive game for him too though.
DWhite making every play
Winning plays

And right as I type that he airball’s a wide open 3 and gets benched
Still been great tonight though.
Great defense tonight
There goes that man just making winning plays
Keeping his team in it as the stars struggle
Haters gon hate
But they be wrong
But it was a good trade
White needs smart players around to be good
Will
Always root for him
That's my boy
He would've been an amazing complimentary piece if he had been drafted when the Spurs were still contenders.
Damn I’ve talked about Derrick but man I’m loving every second of this game for him. Biggest game of his life and he has showed up. Glad the world gets to see his talent.
Happy for White.
Not sure Celtics make finals without White this series. Great for him
They almost lost the game when he went out and didn’t return.
Congratulations Former Spurs assistant Coaches Ime Udoka, Will Hardy and former Spur Derrick White on advancing to the NBA Finals!
What about Spurs All-Star scrub Quinndary Weatherspoon?
My bad.
I like Celtics defense better against Dubs, than the Heat. Marcus on Curry. Jalen on Thompson. I hope Pop is calling on Ime how to beat this Dub team. I always thought Spurs defended Curry the best before any other team followed, if only we had the personnel. But Celtics does. Let’s go Celtics!
I'm not convinced we received enough assets to make this deal worth it. Essentially, we got the 25th pick in the draft, a one-year rental of Richardson, a rehab project in Langford, and a pick swap in 2025 (that may not even be used if we finish with a better record than them). Is that enough compensation for Derrick White?
Boston also ate $52M on the remainder of his contract. Most teams would charge YOU assets for that, not send any along in the deal. Derrick was a #29 pick, and we got a sure asset of a #25 pick. The pick swap,and assets for JRich are more nebulous, but possible, still.
"Ime, take your smallest defender and switch him into Durant every time. What, they don't have Durant? Hmmm. Find someone who should be playing and then bench him."
more then enough. You're crazy
Probably not. I said for months before the trade that the Spurs could get a first round pick for White whenever they wanted. That's what they got, a late first in a week draft, a young bust and a vet for another season plus a phantom pick swap. Couldn't even get expiringe to have Max caproom without machinations.
For what it's worth, the pick swap is in 2028.
Maybe they can get a couple of seconds from a team with a big enough trade exception for Richardson
Happy for Derrick that he found success with Boston. Hopefully Boston beats GSW!
He was hunted in switches but completely shut down their off screen shooters.
Hopefully White can win it all now.
