That's cuz White would often play passive af. Especially if he happened to start the game with a couple of clanks. I distinctly remember posters routinely begging him to be more aggressive in game threads.
It was clear to see that White was better than KJ and had the tools to be better than DJ.
Even if I'm completely wrong and just misremembering everything. It's much much easier to play option 3 on a stacked Celtics team than it was to do same on a mediocre to the core Spurs team. So, yeah he looks better on the Celtics.
You aren't. Everyone from the fandom up through the top of the organization wanted Derrick to be more aggressive, but Derrick refused the reins, even after Pop anointed him onto Team USA. That was the "here are the keys if you want them" moment; D White just didn't take'em.
He has 14 now.
Still hasn't passed the eye test, tbh.
Then smell test after that. How's his coffee-making?
A certain poster needs glasses.
i LOVEd how he played today. Some impact plays on D, some passing, some penetrating, no ballhogging and setting plays with purpose. All I want to see tbh.
I think we should create a Poll......."Does Castle pass the eye test?"
He is the Black Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
You should probably get that checked out. Might have pink eye.
The eye test was the easy part for Castle. He had that from o.
It's the meteoric rise in all statistical categories that's the most eye-popping. That and the winning which he seems to engender (perhaps unfortunately now) once he's in any starting five -- whether here or at UConn.
Oh ffs, it's a joke because a certain member has been ting on Castle all season long with that phrase.
Should have had 25 points or so last night too, missed a lot of shots he normally makes. but he's got ROTY basically locked up at this point
This is a no joking zone (except in designated areas).
Gotta use the blue font.
People here are too smart to understand sarcasm.
My post wasn't good enough for blue font -- I know my limits.
Can we pin to the page a running list of dumb people have said that are just memes at this point, and when repeated aren’t intended to be taken as actual opinions:
Zach Collins is having an objectively good season
Stephon Castle doesn’t pass the eye test
Devin Vassell is very good, consistently
Devin Vassell has turned a ing corner
What am I missing?
Fox is a midget who does nothing except for iso scoring.
Would you trade Sochan for Amen Thompson?
Wemby's conditioning sucks because he was out of breath after being "sick"
His conditioning sucked well before the DVT
He was averaging like 35 minutes before the All-Star Break while being expected to be the #1 option on offense and the #1 defender while averaging 24 and 11 with 4 blocks and 4 assists. Oh, and he's 7.5 freaking feet tall.
Are you mad because he wasn't playing 42 minutes a game? Welcome to the list.
I think it's more about how he was consistently clearly gassed at the 7 minute mark of the first quarter. I think you bring up some good explanations, but his conditioning is a legit criticism. Not a major criticism, but it is a real one, IMO. Hopefully it is significantly mitigated by a better team around him and not requiring him to be superman every game.
I think this is the big thing. When he is on the court, he wants to do EVERYTHING...which is why he is such an amazing player.
But the human body is only capable of so much, especially at his size.
why don't you just admit you were in the wrong and castle was playing losing basketball for no reason?
