I don't want him back, he would help some but he isn't the type of player the Spurs trully need. A better offensive PG would be ideal.
White's stock has really risen with the Celtics, and for good reason.
I saw a thread where they did a re-draft of 2017 and a lot of people had him going in the 5-10 range. Crazy that the Spurs got him at 27

Derrick really would have been the ideal PG for the early Wemby years. The trade didn't really pay off directly for us, but was necessary for the Wemby-tank. No regrets.
LA only has one tradeable FRP, 2029. LeBron can’t play forever, and when he retires, klutch loses a lot of clout.
In case you wondering whether or not DJM has matured.
Ain't no way anyone actually wants this emotional back![]()
Overrated and he’s still easy to gameplan against. Derrick white was and has always been better than him. Only guys like me and FkLA saw that.
The White all-star talk I've been hearing brings a tear to my eye
As much as I miss him I'm glad he's in a winning environment that gets him the love he always deserved. Truly the perfect complementary player, tbh.
I take him spurs ship them pop
Spurs have pop
For me White never was better than Murray. Why? Especially availability ... apart from one major injury Murray was more durable.
I am happy for White that he has gotten over his constant niggling injuries and plays at this level with the Celtics.
White’s style of play translates to winning basketball. Remember we still made the playoffs with him Demar and Aldridge. Starting Murray brought us nothing but play in spots. The fact that Murray is still on the trading block and “Stephen Jackson”his way off another mediocre team tells you between the two who’s more valuable.
Pop is silent Generation Not greatest generation.... Wow it's pretty easy being ignorant as ... You don't even know what you're missing.
White was running around like he was on eggs s the last year or two of his SA tenure. Not his fault, but the NAGGING injuries never really subsided for White in the 2020 and 2021 seasons.
It's too bad for SA on that one. I think DW is pushing 30 YO now - maybe not the right timeline anymore.
B-but the Hawks don’t want him so he doesn’t want them back
Murray the emotional woman![]()
Sending quite the message there
Murray is under contract for the next 4 years after this one. What good is removing Hawks stuff from social media going to do?
I think Murray proved he doesn’t make a team better when he went to the Hawks. They had a decent roster when he got there and had competed well in the eastern conference playoffs the year before and then they floundered after he got to the team. He put up good numbers as he did here, but he is not a difference maker when it comes to winning. Statsheet Murray.
No gracias.
We made out well on that trade no reason to ruin it.
They didn't make the playoffs the year before Murray got there. Their ECF trip was two years before. They did drop from 43 wins to 41 wins the season Murray joined them though.
Murray can't be traded until January 9 because of the extension he signed. He might be convinced that Hawks have already a trade agreed in principle for him and are just waiting that he becomes trade eligible in a week.
It doesn't make removing Hawks stuff smart but it makes it understandable. He likely feels betrayed by them and thinks he will be gone in a week.
I don’t feel players are aware of how good it is to be on the Spurs where they go out of there way not to do trades. DJ probably thought the trade talk was all garbage then the Hawks told him it wasn’t…Loyalty broken in his eyes, which causes him to lash out by taking out all his Hawks stuff on social media. Luckily for him Toronto is not the destination. Hawks are a mess with him or without him.

It's been reported that the Knicks are really interested in him, but after the OG trade it seems like any trade for Murray would have to be draft pick heavy which would be great for the Spurs.
Oops...my bad. But similar point. He didn't move the needle in a positive way.
Granted, he'd likely help here...anything vaguely resembling a point guard would greatly help this mess of a Spurs team. If Atlanta is seeking anything substantial for him though, like handing back those picks, I'd rather the Spurs keep those and look for other options. I don't see Murray as the point guard of future for this team.
The Knicks still have two of the picks from OKC’s disastrous Ouseman Dieng trade. One is a Detroit pick and another is a Wizards pick. Both of them have decreasing protections over a period of time, Detroit’s eventually drops to 1-8, and the Wiz pick eventually drops to 1-9.
