Yeah Simmons was an enigma
Such talent untapped
Wasted
Prolly cause he ain’t that smart
Worse 3 pt shooter, better driver / more athletic. Defense not as good.
Derrick is better against set defenses. Simmons was better in transition.
Derrick is the better player.

LOL, Simmons played all of four seasons in the league and is in China. WTF is wrong with people, LMAO.
Not sure if Celtics fans realize White gets hurt a lot. He’s not playing great, but at least he is playing. Enjoy it while it lasts.
Derrick is a very good all-around player. He’s high bball iq and could help Celtics in the playoffs.
I wonder if J-Rich TO’s as of late is what concerned Celtics. J-Rich could make head-scratcher decisions sometimes
Derrick white looking worse and worse each day
Either Brown or Tatum will be gone from Boston by the 27-28 season. That long of a lag time could be huge. Hopefully the Spurs will be back in the saddle by that time.
Is there a limitation on the pick swap?
The only limitation is 2-30 it conveys, 1st overall, no go.
That'll work. It may come to nothing, but it could also be a big deal for the Spurs.
J-Rich with 25 pts in 3-5 from 3
d white- 6/1/3
Man if anyone has watched the Celtics in the last couple months, they are freaking balling. The roster changes they made have been great for them (getting rid of Schroeder for Thiess, Richardson for White). The team is much more balanced. They use to fall apart when the bench came in.
Since January 1st
Second best record in the league of 27-9 only behind Phoenix 31-6.
Best net rating of 12.3. Second is Phoenix at 10.2. Third is T-Wolves at 7.7.
By far the best defensive rating of 103.4. Second best is Phoenix at 107.9.
The thing about their defense is that it should translate to the playoffs. Offensively they will need Tatum and Brown to be big on offense and everyone else needs to be able to hit 3s.
Also, Boston’s also number in the league in opponent paint points since Jan 1. You’re going to have to beat them from 3 or mid range.
It's hard to know who will come out of the East this year, but I'd put Boston way up there.
I imagine Brad Stevens is very happy with the D White trade. Boston's not only 13-3 with him, but that win total includes quality wins against Denver, Memphis, Philly, and Brooklyn. White's always been a glue guy, so he's in the perfect situation supporting five solid starters for Boston. Gotta admit, it would be kind of crazy if Boston won a championship this year, after what happened with the Kawhi trade.
Their defense is so good right now
The fact that some people are still here pining over Jonathon ing Simmons proves they are either trolling or just straight up re ed.
Dude was lucky to get a payday from Orlando off of one decent season (where he only got playoff minutes because Kawhi is a ), and now he's out of the NBA.
Richardson looks better than Simmons ever did so far, but you don't see people wooing over him right now.
Quality trolling ..definitely top 3 on this site...I've been right about everything Spurs.
Derrick had no future here so moving in was the right pick but the fact that Boston’s pick this year is gonna be bottom 5 definitely sucks. But whatever, gotta move on. Hopefully that future pick-swap ends up being worth something.
Wait. Time Lord is off now.
I was trolling but also pointing out both potentially looked better in our system.
I think Boston knew that trading for White would improve their overall defense. They weren't bad by any means, but the trade moved their defense up a notch or two. It also helps that he can score and shoot an occasional 3. It was a decent trade for both sides. Our upcoming pick and the pick swap in 28 will really decide who truly won the trade.
Jump to the 1:04 mark for Grant's DW assigned character. DW's reaction is priceless
Meh reaction actually
I appreciate the honesty, and agreed to both points
