For the short term you mean? There is nothing that tells me this kid can't improve his percentages, he already has a good foundation with his current form. Chip will fine tune it w/ him over the next few seasons surely.
it'd be a waste making him a curry clone when driving is his best skill. I agree he should try to get the percentages up, there's no reason he couldn't, but it's much easier to get great shooting guys like forbes and mills for cheap, much much harder to find superlative ball handlers and PG. The spurs have a great record finding gary neals, but have struggled to find true backups to parker (and were very lucky that Parker was so durable).
Interesting. I actually met Coach Pop in Memphis the last time they played the Grizzlies in the playoffs (last year or the year before I think it was the year before.) Him and some of the coaches were sitting at the bar at some nice steakhouse. I recognized Borrego and some of the training staff and then I saw Pop. Didn't talk to him for more than a minute bc I really didn't want to bother the guy but when you've got an opportunity to meet Coach Pop you do it. Super friendly guy, introduced himself as Gregg lol. Asked where we were from, Spurs lost the night before and Pop said something along the lines of they'd try to get us (well the fans in whole) that win tonight. I'm sure I've shared that experience here before, nothing crazy but it was cool to see that the coaches were friendly and outgoing.
WTF was that game 4 nonsense? Un-ac-cep-ta-ble.
I DEMAND EXCELLENCE!!!
Bertans is underrated as a defender honestly.... Where he has issues is bigger traditional power forwards who can just overpower him against guys who like jumpers and people driving he is adequate to good he isn't a first rate rim protector but does provide help when needed. My issue is he is a bit streaky and i worry about his knees.
i only watch t he 1st quarter, thought he did well, then disappeared the whole game...wtf happen
on offense he camps further away from the 3pt line,
when he receives the ball to shoot his either to far, or its a last second bail out shot
his putting himself in position to fail, same with the idiots who dont look for him on offense
It's like he is scared to take the reins...
The reins were given to Dejounte but White earned them with his play. He shouldn't be shy.
Guy needs to shoot more.
That’s what I’m saying. He doesn’t even want to shoot. He’s wide open pretty often and still doesn’t even take those. That Boris Diaw mentality haha. I think Boris had moments where he was wide open under the goal and passed it.
Or he is just young, inexperienced and his play is uneven and inconsistent at times because of that. He still isn't at the point where he is confident enough to feel like he's the best player on the court.
I don't believe he'll ever reach that elite level, but he definitely has the smarts and skills to become an all-star level performer.
Gotta hope he has a big performance tomorrow night....
One mistake and that fat koala is sent to the scorer's table to sub in, and people wonder why he's scared to make a mistake sometimes.
Pop has done a good job of making sure Derrick knows he is behind LMA and Dumbmar in the pecking order.
White is our future
Imagine if Durant joiined us, we would be unstoppable

He could switch jerseys with Rudy, no one would notice
Derek White is a gift. Pop likes to look gift horses in the mouth.
White trolled the out of spurstalk in game 3. You should have seen the optimism in you guys faces.
