In search of reinforcements in the position of point guard, Boston won during the trade deadline with the recruitment of Derrick White vs Josh Richardson and Romeo Langford. Secondly, the general manager Brad Stevens cleaned up the old Spur by trading Dennis Schrder on the Houston side. White immediately proved his new leaders right by integrating at high speed: 15 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists once morest the Nuggets then 14 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists once morest the Hawks. 2 games, 2 wins for the Celtics who are on a streak of 8 consecutive wins. The coach Ime Udokaformer student of Gregg Popovich San Antonio, feasts with White on the bench. Repositioned as the sixth man, he finished the last two games, a sign of confidence from the coach:
He is great for a coach and a team. It’s what you kind of rely on game following game. You know what you are going to get with it. It does a lot of little things as well as some bigger ones. But he’s a guy who really changes the pace on the court. He makes quick decisions and reads the game well most of the time. He’s had open shots where he’s passed, but overall he’s playing the right way. And then he’s another versatile defensive player. This is standard, because the attack stagnates less, of course. We have more guys who can attack. And whether he’s making the pass or receiving it, he’s getting the right read most of the time. It’s up to him to shoot the open, drive-and-kick or find the inside near the circle. We are therefore talking regarding his ability to pass, score or shoot. And then there is no shortage of rotation on the defensive side. That is why it is so precious to us.
Mrs. sound of bell at her new partner Jaylen Brown. The two teammates rubbed shoulders with Team USA during the 2019 World Championship. For Brown, the arrival of White strengthens the Celtics’ attack, especially at the end of the match when the team had great difficulty finishing their opponent.
Derrick is a great addition, he’s a real threat. You have to respect him in attack, otherwise he will take the shots and if you don’t close out, he will do the right thing. It definitely takes the pressure off everyone, especially the times we’ve had before when things weren’t going well. Derrick is a guy who can do simple passes and simple reads that can help us get through the tough times, those times when we struggle.
