White coming on strong. Is an injury far away?
I think now is a great time to sell if it helps rebalance this roster.
White coming on strong. Is an injury far away?
White has been a major pivot on whether the team's successful or not since he came on board. If he struggles the team struggles.
White would be a valuable trade chip if the Spurs wanted to upgrade their front court or acquire draft capital. A package of White + Thad and/or McNuggets is something the Spurs should explore this season. I am fan of White but he's 27 and his age doesn't really fit the timetable of this team unless they acquire a stud big man (unlikely). Denver is the ideal landing spot for him (they need a ton of defensive help) to pair with Joker and could slide over to the 2 or be the 6th man off the bench when Jamal Murray returns, but I'm not sure the Nugs have any bigs or draft capital the Spurs covet (Gordan on a terrible contract or Porter Jr. with a broken back?)...
Maybe a package of White, Thad, Walker or McNuggets + a FRP for Diva Ben lol
Let's hope Poetl doesn't take him out like last season. He took down KJ already lol
dp.
getting better and better ... this guy really needs 20 games to get himself going ... if he can stay healthy the lookout for the rest of the season is great
It’s nice that Derrick is finding his shots again and being aggressive. He kind of remind me of Nash somehow with his penetration in the baseline, not giving up the dribble, just keep sucking the defense to pass/ally op to a cutting big, or cleverly shoots the ball. I hope he keeps attacking like this, because sometimes I feel he’s just too “nice” and not have enough dog in him. I mean I don’t see him getting “angry” or with a game face, just smiles when things don’t go his way
Poeltl is a clumsy af player tbh
Damn dude, reading my mind! I concur.
main thing about him is he is playing with a renewed sense of confidence. being assertive, quick trigger finger on 3's
I really love Derick -- great human, team guy. But, yeah, at 27, on great deal, I think next summer they need to shop him hard of future assets. I also put Jakob in this camp, who has also been awesome for Spurs (probably team's 2nd most important player) this year.
Feels like the longterm core includes DJ (25) and Vassell (21), with Primo a TBD.
Trade him now before his china doll feet shatter again…
hurry!
White, 27, doesn't fit the timetable but DJ, 25, does it?
how much better is murray today than he was 2-3 years ago. cant say the same for white tbh
were going to find out
Let’s hope White keeps this up
That's another question.
White was better out of the box. He was a four year D1 player. I think he was a better distributor as a second year than DJ is now.
It’s the same question. They have very different trajectories
I know there is not a chance in we actually make a trade but doubling down on selling DW every-time
he plays well.
Nah if White keeps playing like this I wouldn’t want to trade him. Just try to get what you can for Thad, McDermott, Forbes and Walker
U fell for it again... Like an abused wife when her husband brings flowers... White plays well for 20 games a season, and y'all keep holding on to hope that he will be consistent m.. it never happens
