The Adjustment That Is Making The Boston Celtics Unguardable.. | NBA News (Derrick White, Tatum)

- The Boston Celtics have arguably started off the 2023 NBA Playoffs looking more sound and complete than any other team that still remains. And while some would have expected this to be the case with the stellar play of their stars in Jayson Tatum & Jaylen Brown throughout the season, along with the above average coaching of HC Joe Mazzulla in his first year, there might some things the Celtics are trying to pull off that we’re not used to them attempting.
Aside from JT & JB clearly leading this team, they are obviously full of playmakers and facilitators in guys like Marcus Smart, Malcolm Brogdon, and even Al Horford can do the trick at times. But the man that has made the biggest jump for the Cs this year, and especially so far in the 2023 NBA Postseason, is Derrick White. With Derrick White not just excelling in scoring, but also by operating the offense himself, the full Celtics rotation also including Robert Williams, Sam Hauser, Luke Kornet, and potentially even Grant Williams and Payton Pritchard if need be, the Celtics offense is operating in ways that are leaving teams like the Atlanta Hawks with no valid answers.
And if the coaching of Joe Mazulla keeps up in this regard, even the Celtics defense could make a run to be more impressive than their offensive output. And if that’s the case, Boston could find themselves sitting as a two-way juggernaut for whoever might get in their way on the road to a 2023 NBA Finals appearance.

How far do you think the Boston Celtics will make it in the 2023 NBA Playoffs? 👇
The Celtics are winning the Finals. The Revenge Tour is Real!!!!
@@therealdarrell282 the revenge tour was last year, now we have to finish it.
@@avocado.prod11 When they loss the to GS in the Finals last season, this season became The Revenge Tour.
Boston will win the chip
2023 champs we’ll be hanging banner 18 ☘️
6 seasons under his belt at only 19 years old Tatum is something else
The 19 year old joke is getting old.
this is why we need to give him a 5 year deal.
The most surprising part for me is definitely Derrick White. It's like the Celtics have a 3 hall of fame scorers out there. And still have a very good sixth man of the year to come in and get buckets. The absolute firepower of this team is amazing. Celtics are winning the 2023 NBA Championship as long as they stay healthy.
Derrick White, as Gregg Popovich said, is a player who has a natural feel for the game. He has a knack for knowing when is the best time for him to score. He is a player who adjusts to his team’s needs. The perfect fit next to 2 elite score first mentality all star players.
Round 1 not yet finish😂😂😂
@@nicesea905 oh no don't tell me you actually believe the hawks are going to win lol
Also love that Brogdon has completely accepted his bench role and is going crazy. They put it best on Inside the NBA the other day: he's essentially just a sixth starter that beats up the other team's bench, and then takes over for Smart to put in work with the other starters later in the game. He could easily be 2-5 option (maybe 3-5 on Boston lol), but he knows that as the newcomer to the team it makes more sense to keep the main 5 intact for chemistry purposes. True team player and true six man. Boy oh boy are we gonna have some salary issues though lmaooooo
Its good to see D-White finally figure out his game for the Celtics.
I say, its good that the COACH finally figured out HOW to play D-White HIS GAME.
@@spankmunky316 i say i hope the COACH DOESNT FORGET TO PUT HIM IN THE 4TH QUARTER.
Really miss Derrick White playing for the Spurs. It is great to see him start to get the recognition he deserves. One of my favorite players in the league. Hope his success continues!
The key for White was hitting 3s because now defenders have to respect him and close out
As a Celts fan, I can honestly admit when we got Derrick White last year, I thought..."Ok, another scrappy defender. I guess that's good for us". But he seemed to get better by the day, and by this year's playoffs it's getting damn hard not to say he might be the third biggest star on this team, and this Celts team is ridiculously deep with Time Lord, Al Horford, Malcolm Brogden, Smart, and I haven't even mentioned contributors like Grant Williams and big time 3-pt shooter Sam Horford, and then even Kornet, Pritchard and Griffin have chipped in. With all this talent on team, White has emerged as the most consistent contributor, and he just never seems to have an off night. We ordered hamburger, but what we have here is prime wagu steak, lol. I'll take it!
You forgotten mike who can also shoot the 3
@lifesshorthavefun1832 I think he going to step up right now he's not needed for ATL but Philly or bucks yeah as we need a big body
Sam Hauser* 😁
What you never watched spurs😂😂😂 when we got Derrick white I was like, yes! thats it. His performance last year was a disappointment, but he made it up this year
Who the hell is Sam HORFORD?
people forget White led the spurs to a 7 game series against the nuggets in 2018 with no kawhi or DJM, glad to finally see him get recognition
Jamal Murray's father
Nope people don’t forget. They weren’t aware of it in the first place or don’t care at all. That is the case when a player is in a small market team like San Antonio. Derrick White is already a well established player in San Antonio but Celtics fans being oblivious to his past only look at the time from when he got to the Celtics where he is still adjusting to the new system in Boston and the team still does not utilize him optimally to now when he already has an established role in the team.
@@baconbits3731 Okay, everyone but Spurs fans forgot. Happy?
@@baconbits3731 We got the Derrick White gatekeeper over here LOL it’s not that serious bro.
“I’m pretty sure most of you at least expected me to mention him in this video” yeah the thumbnail points to his face 😂
I think what makes the Celtics so special is that Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum don't need the ball in their hands to make an impact. They play great defense and (can be) very efficient with the ball, both in terms of how long they spend with the ball and shot-making efficiency. This allow them to play off-ball and hunt mismatches while also giving other players like Smart and White, to show their strengths.
I love Derrick White! I wish he was my grandson. Because if he was, I would be bragging about him incessantly. He's intelligent, humble yet confident and such a powerful force on the court. He reminds me of the hockey great Bobby Orr. Like Orr, he outshines everyone in the game. Go Celtics...win it all for the grandmas!
As a Sixers fan I saw them pick up Derrick White and immediately threw my phone across the room
As a celtics fan I am so used to them just chilling on the perimeter now they are going in the paint and scoring efficiently at a high volume
Underlooked part of d.white and the team is the chemistry that is obvious. They love playing for each other, and they know their roles and they look like they're having fun most of the time.
Derrick White is definitely a fan favorite. As in, a Spurs fan favorite. I think the Celtics are the team most Spurs fans are rooting for since we are tanking now. Also, y'all are against Dejounte so we are double pulling for the Celtics.
All I can say is there hasn't been more than a 3-game stretch for this team in loses. Banner 18 I need you, go C's!
Derrick White is quite reminiscent of another Celtic White, namely JoJo. The latter also had remarkable touch on his floaters and that uncanny ability to finish in the paint in a crowd.
Stop
Good size at 6'5", can play both guard positions, plays great defense, great slasher and off-ball movement, can shoot the three. Derrick White is the perfect fit in Boston. This is what I thought we were getting when we traded for him, it just took a while for him to figure out his role on this team. But if he plays like he has been, Boston will be very hard to beat.
we love D white in boston he’s become a fan favorite, its gonna be hard to stop here in the post season cuz they can try doubling tatum or brown but now we have another elite scorer and playmaker in Derrick white i dont know how anyones gonna solve it
DW getting slme love. We miss you at San Antonio. We hope you win a ring in Boston
Derrick White is outstanding. To me he's Bostons silent assassin. Whether shooting threes, which seems always at a time when the Celtics need it most, it's his ability to take the ball to the well that impresses me most. Of course when you play on a team stacked with All Stars it opens up others to feed on the open buffet. These guys are very good and very deep. Mental mistakes are their worse enemy but I can't see any team beating these guys in a 7 game series.
D white and brogdon are our x factors especially when brown and tatum rest...they both have been huge
Boston will be a 2022-2023 NBA Champion and DWhite as X-Factor. he will be a mirror of my favorite player Manu.. he is everywhere every plays...I am a spUrs fan and DWhite will always be a spUr. Celtics Vs Nuggets in Finals
Picking up White and then Brogdon was huge. They have both been amazing for the team.
Sheesh. That DWhite-Brown-Tatum-Horford-Rob Williams lineup with a 76.4 Defensive Rating must be a nightmare for opposing teams.
That lineup doesnt even have the defensive player of the year. Insane roster
Small size at 6’4?
The casual fan might think I'm crazy but Dwhite has played better defense than Smart this season. Trae young is getting bullied on the court by the only guy who has goofier hair than him
Na that’s hands down he’s got to be all defense smarts not
D-White has definitely played himself onto the 1st or 2nd All-Defensive team. This year he's been much a better defender than Smart on a night to night basis.
@@asid448 to be fair smart hasn't been a 100% of recent he said he was let's not forget smart been through some injuries since last plays off
To be fair smart probably helps d with defense same way he helped pp
@Chris Wright I agree. He's still an excellent defender. I feel like he's better guarding bigger, stronger guys than small quick guards. Just my opinion.
Popovich knows talent.
I don't see anyone stopping the Cetics this year! I think it's banner 18 for sure!
U said his numbers weren’t great in 2022 and I thought the complete opposite. Idk what his stats were I just remember him never disappointing and always being a super reliable option last year. He was a big piece for that Celtics run last year and I’m callin cap on the numbers cause I watched almost every Celtics postseason game last year and always talked him up
Hey guys, Hawks fan checking in. Having to watch them play us in the first round this year, I can say those Celtics are good. With that said, Hawks in seven.
White and Brogdon is like Tatum and Brown duo.
Jaylen Brown your next video Hoops Digest 🙏🙏🙏
White isn't small for an NBA player, he's like 6'5. He's actually big for a guard.
Derrick White & Malcolm Brogdon big key for Boston get #18 banner 💪💪💪
he was the chosen one in Spurs.
If the Celtics go to the finals and win this year
They're going to be champions for the next few years if they keep the same personnel
Jaylen Brown will leave he hates the front office & city.
Winning it last year could of started are dynasty
@@101noz101 he loves tatum and deuce more
@@101noz101you just believe anything you hear huh?
@@101noz101 must really suck loving life based off headlines……
Best advice here...get two jpbs, live in a car, and explore the southern regions. I hear argentina is fantastic place.
White was coached by Manu for years and it shows
Since last year I Knew DW was a good trade . It was a matter of time for him to be comfortable with the C’s offense and Defense schemes . DW was showing flashes since last year and how vital his play making will be however Celtics fans were very impatient nonetheless Derrick White was one of my favorite trade including Danilo Gallinari! They both are match up nightmares for the opponents!!!
I never forget game 1 against the warrior derrick was hot
Danny Ainge drafted the team, and wonderboy "Trader" Brad Stevens put all the final pieces together...C's really are a wagon
Derrick White is so good
Yes if he Celtics can play with intensity for more than a couple games and limit their rurnovers
D White is a big reason why the Hawks need to consider Trae Young's future in Atlanta
I mean it makes sense to me, I’m a bucks fan, I remember when they got White from the spurs I was like 😬 a lil nervous. The spurs hadn’t made a lot of noise in recent years, but his name still kept popping up. He proved he can run an offense out there. Now he has two people who’s defenders are not going to sag off of them to help create a double team and the other two defenders aren’t going to want to leave a big man in the hole. Basically the only team that can beat them is one with a PG who can lock down anybody like Jrue Holiday. I think if it’s a Bucks/Celtics ECF whoever wins that (if they are healthy) almost automatically wins the whole thing.
bucks are almost out though
Woohoo #700!
Also, Celtics ftw. 😤☘️
Derrick White is like having Pierce back on this team.
Haha let's calm down. Pierce was finals MVP in 08 and carried this team for like a decade. But I will say, he's been flying a jumbo jet under the radar somehow.
@@anthonyjs8048 I meant a 40 year old Pierce 😂 but seriously he sometimes reminds of how Paul used to play
Celtics is ridiculously great this year.
I hate sports betting with a passion, but I would put my house on derrick white winning finals mvp
Great video Hoops.
most surprising part to me is derrick white is having a far better defensive season than Marcus smart, although Marcus was injured a decent amount, white still leads all guards in total blocks.
Derrick White the unsung hero
Celtics fan here. I just can't remember a team superstar like laker-cobe, James, Bird, ever missing so many shots when they're right at the rim like Tatum. Yeah, he's good, but he chokes so many times with the ball withing a foot of the rim. Geez
We are going to hang banner 18 this year
Yo mr white we gotta keep playing man
MyCareer Team, Let's go. 2023 NBA Champions.
everyone should know this but so far, D-White has totally outplayed Trae.
yeah
All I remember is when we would play the Spurs this dude Derrick White be roasting our ASS.
And I'd be like who TF is Derrick White ?
😂😂😂😂😭😭😭💀
Comes in full circle
Atl doesn’t have defense either but I hope this continues through out the playoffs
NO ONE is beating this Celtics team, if you believe this team is losing 4 games in a series against anybody you don't know how good this team is then
"Literally Everything" Caption during the interview. At least the first two games they're not wrong.
Relaxxxx bro it’s the hawks
Dwhite has been killing teams since allstar break pay attention
@@ryanb9305 imma pay attention when they play Philly
Why I say how slow the Celtics were playing in the 3rd quarter, I thought they would loose this game. They had no hustle in the last 2 quarters.
They’re playing the hawks…
The hawks are league average. Not like they are bottom of the barrel.
And ? It's not like it will be anything different against those other teams 💀
They also had the best record vs the top teams in the league
@@noahlandkaioken1192 the hawks have offered no resistance at all. things will be harder.
@@hehe-tr5zi they were literally the 5th worse defensive team in points allowed
Spurs legend
LET HIM ROAM
Why do Pritvhard, Grant not play ??
the depth is just too good so not everyone gets minutes every game. and its also dictated by matchups on a game to game basis
Haha the Celtics are always good like this. I swear people be saying stuff like this about them every playoffs and they lose in some horrible fashion. Maybe this is their year though.
If JB wants to leave the Celtics, fine. Pay D-White
he isn't on the same level. I'd 100% try to keep d-white, but jb is a must have.
@@Backup_Punter Not currently on the same level. But the pay isn't either! Would you rather have JB at $50 million a year or D-White at $20 million? I think White will keep getting better and will be more valuable long term to the Cs since they can save $25-30 million to sign another player. I think for the price that JB wants you can keep White and Brogdon.
@@4dwyn Still no reason not to pay JB. You can replace brodgon and white, but JB is an all star.
Yeah but Hawks are trash so the small sample size is skewed. A better metric is the eye test the entire season where JT, JB, Smart, Horford, RobWil, Brogdon, missing large parts of the season, DWhite was literally the only player in every night leading the offense, but more importantly, the entire team. DWhite and Brogdon brought a fully manned Bucks in tryhard mode to OT without ANY Celtic starters
Watching this after they lost game 5 no way y’all struggling Vs the hawks bro they suck no way y’all getting past the 2nd round
Gotta say, I'm surprised Grant is on the bench. Although I do like Hauser as well but Grant can guard bigs better.
Yeah, I still haven't been able to figure that out. I think the Hauser move was a good gamble, though. But maybe it's time for that experiment to end... idk
hawks arent playing their bigs that often. grant cant guard trae or dejounte so its the give and tske. the separator is 3 pt shooting.
The Celtics are focused on the task at hand - grant will need his body in fully health for Embiid and Giannis. I would be shocked if he doesn’t play either of those series. Right now we don’t “need” him so we’re saving him. Same with Blake. Blake is just a body we can use on the big boys and they both take charges. It’s honestly so sick hahah equipped for many situations as he alluded to in the video
He will be in the rotation against Milwaukee to lock down Giannis like he did last year but we don’t
Need him against the sixers or hawks
@@curtislinden9297 I don’t even know if they gonna use him against the sixers
i think celtics have a one way ticket to face lal or phx in the finals
Banner 18
Not so sure the Celtics are going to win at all. Long time Celtic fan not much confident they are definitely a heckle and Jekyll team …one round at a time…….they have not done anything yet….🤞.
Small size for an NBA player? D White is 6'4"... Only 190lbs... But he's definitely not "small"... Peyton Pritchard is another story..
Excellent breakdown
As a Philadelphia 76ers fan I will say the Boston Celtics will beat your 20 2223 NBA champions. Joel Embiid is hurt again just like every playoffs he’swe are done after Brooklyn
They playing the Hawks
Playing a bad team. Tatum at 4 will hurt interior defense. Wont work vs 76ers or bucks
It's the lineups they're throwing at the Hawks. They'll have different lineups against bigger teams. You'll see.
Who does Philly have at the 4?? Tobias Harris? I think he’ll be ok loo
@@jaredg217 embiid..need help with size
@@jaredg217 dropped 52 on celtics this month..ya celts ok
@@xavierb9061 with Celtics resting almost EVERYONE
when RW3 is healthy...Celtics become a totally different team
2-1. Dont get ur hopes up😅😅😅
Not playing Grant Williams might win them a title!!!!!
He’ll eventually get his as long as he’s patient.
He’ll play 30+ minutes against the Bucks
#gospursgo
Relax, Hawks aren't good defensively, the fxcking Pacers are unguardable to the Hawks
Well this video aged poorly
Celtics in 6
Against Hawks? Nah brotha Its a sweep or a gentleman sweep 4-1
Celtics in 6 against the rest of the playoffs
In 5 or 4
Celtics in 4
@Toothbrush we sweeping the hawks, 6 in the finals v the kings
AAAANNNNNNDDDDD....... The Celtics lose by 28.
Unguardable???? Hawks just won
Great WHITE 🦬!!!
SKOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
It’s an interesting time for him to be playing so well, considering all the jaylen brown uncertainty
Derrick White thinking he's a star is why the Hawks will win the next 2 games
The hawks suck who cares
God doesn’t want anybody in hell because He loves us, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). We’re not sinners because we sin, but rather we sin because we’re sinners. Sin is the nature of our flesh that we are born with due to the sin of Adam in the garden. For someone to be justified before God they have to be sinless. We’ve all sinned (Romans 3:23), and the the law demands death for those who sin (Romans 6:23). God is righteous, so He must punish our sin, which is what He did through His Son Jesus Christ on the cross. Jesus is Holy and sinless, yet He received our sin when He died on the cross, so that we can be righteous before God (2 Corinthians 5:21). When He died on the cross, He said “It is finished” (John 19:30), which means He paid the full price for all of your sins (past, present, and future) to be forgiven. He was buried and rose again from the dead. God will forgive anybody who puts their full trust in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. We aren’t saved based on our good deeds, but only by the grace of God (Ephesians 2:8-9). His precious blood that He shed is the only reason why we can be forgiven of our sins (Hebrews 9:22). If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised Him from the dead, then you’ll be saved (Romans 10:9). You are born-again with the Spirit of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17), and are not only legally justified before God, but also are accredited His righteous (Romans 4:24). Believers live for Christ now, so get to know Him through His Word. I recommend reading the book of Romans and the gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), and watching Pastor Joseph Prince’s online sermons!
This is not the place for your religious opinions.
Some folks will believe absolutely ANYTHING. Thanks for the demonstration but maybe save it for a Franklin Graham (et al) video.
Ahahah this trash will get destroyed by Giannis
The same team that dumped yall by 41 fully healthy?
Boston's depth is what makes them scary. JT and JB need no introduction but something I think that defines championship level teams not just in basketball but in all sports is verity. The ability to score, defend, and win in a variety of ways and a lot of depth pieces to allow for leaves you with very little weakness to exploit.
If a team dominates the paint but can't shoot 3s, you can clog lanes and force them to shoot. If a team's scoring depends on 1 superstar double team him and force the role players to beat you. You cant take that simple approach to Boston because can win in so many types of games with different guys as the focal point. The biggest thing is for them to not beat themselves
Dwhite is a fucking monster and highkey is the DPOY
They playing the hawks of course they look un guardable
6’5” is not small wym😭
