    The day we got Derrick, I put $100 on the Celtics for the chip, at x46

    No regrets.

    Wasn’t this article satire or something? I remember hearing that the last time this article did its rounds

    Virtually all of Brad’s moves have been exceptional, starting with the trades for Al and D-White. Throw in the trades for KP and Jrue—and don’t forget he was head coach when JT, JB and Pritchard were drafted and started developing—and this title contender is clearly Trader Brad’s team…

    “Here are the facts. Josh Richardson is a better shooter than Derrick White, and aside from Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, he was the best shooter on this team. Richardson is 6’5” with a 7-foot wingspan, White is 6’4” with a 6’8” wingspan. White was never asked to defend wings in San Antonio. Richardson did that regularly, and now there’s no wing depth with Langford gone, too.”

    “I can say this without hesitation: Derrick White is the most unspectacular player in the NBA. He’s not fast, can’t jump, doesn’t have the handle or passing to be considered a pure point guard, and lacks the bucket-getting instincts of a modern scoring guard. He’s shooting 31 percent from three on 5.3 attempts. Richardson, and even Langford, were more reliable outside shooters. The Celtics currently rank 22nd in three-point percentage and unfathomably traded their best catch-and-shoot player.”

    “He’s also got an injury history. Last season he only played 36 games battling ankle and toe injuries. He’s had everything from heel injuries, glute contusions, fractured wrists, and plantar fascia tears.”

    Those were very common refrains at the time of the deal. It almost felt like for some reason some people could not accept the idea of Brad being a good GM who knows what he is doing?

    White had an underwhelming first season with us so I don’t begrudge the author, but he’s been amazing the past two season. Unreal trade looking back on it

  7. This has been posted so many times as if its serious but the article literally has a disclaimer that its satire… that said derrick white was not even close in ’22 to what he is now and people who were disappointed in his play had good reason to be.
