Youngsters (regardless of how talented they are) should be taught by their coaches to watch the way Derrick White plays & emulate that.

Man we’d be so much better if we could trade Jaylen for a player or players who would compliment this team better. Nobody is going to touch that ridiculous contract though.

White for cigar

VC to White. He just continues to be incredible. Never in the wrong place. Always makes the right decision. CP goes to Al. Just a huge 2nd half full of timely shots and even more timely rebounds against a big frontline. He's really settled in quite nicely off the bench and is playing the kind of ball we know he can play in that role.

KP just raises the ceiling of this team so much. As another poster put it"He makes everyone better on this team simply by existing". It is so important that we keep him upright and healthy.

DW was awesome, went Jrue with the other vote as he was quietly excellent all night.

Gonna start a petition in the offseason that JT use his middle name Christopher instead.

First tech was warranted. Second tech was dumb. They should investigate these refs with quick techs.

Hope Brunson's okay. Just unlucky. Game was already over.

JB passed the ball today though. Passed it a lot. I don't even remember a single forced/contested shot in the half court.

Hauser had more blocks, assists or offensive rebounds (1 each) than he had made FGs (0), 3pters or otherwise.

Maybe he has some great plans with his wife for tonight.

Cs need to go on another win streak.

I think the real shame is as valuable as d white is for us. I have the feeling he won't even get any real consideration for all star game selection.. I mean I could be wrong but... Hali Maxey and Brunson...LaMelo??

Yeah. Al is too old to be playing 32-35 MPG as a starting center.

6th man role playing 24-28 MPG is just right for him at this stage of his career.

He's viewed as a role player by majority of fans esp outside of Boston. He doesn't get featured enough for him to even get the numbers. Zero flash too.

D.White will get his flowers once the Cs win a chip.

Great guy, great player, it's just a matter of time.

Deuce and Big Deuce exchanging butt signs? What's up with that.
