If Tatum or someone else did what Murray did then forget suspended, they'd probably be arrested 

If Tatum or any Celtic Player……

TWO Brinks trucks loaded

Definitely some overhype going on.  White is doing great but he's also benefiting by playing on a team loaded with talent.  He's worth Jrue's contract and maybe a bit more.  He's not a Max guy.  He's certainly not a #1 on a team.  Not sure which teams he'd even be #2.   

1. White was the distant 4th offensive option on this team, with his usage rate of 18.6% falling way below Tatum (30.2%), Brown (28.9%) and Porzingis (25.1%).  Despite his relative low priority in the offence, he still averaged 15.2 PPG and put up three 30+ point games (2 in the regular season, 1 in the playoffs).  I have no doubts at all that he could average ~22 PPG if he were given a bigger offensive role on a less stacked team.   

2. Over the past two seasons he has shot 46% / 39% / 89% splits which are extremely impressive (borderline elite) shooting splits in an era where shooting is one of the most prized commodities.   

3. Not only can he score (and do it efficiently) but he's also clutch.  I've lost count of the number of huge baskets White has made this year in crucial moments. Every team aiming for a championship run values players who are big in the clutch - it can be the difference between a championship and a 2nd round exit. 

4. In addition to scoring, he also averaged 4.2 reb and 5.2 assists while committing only 1.5 turnovers, so he's not a one trick scoring pony - he gives you a little bit of everything and does so with very low risk / high efficiency.

5. In addition to all of the above he's also an elite and extremely versatile defensive player - which is probably the second highest valued commodity in today's NBA.  He's a guard with good size who can defend 3 positions, he led all guards in shot blocking (1.2 BPG - 16th overall) and I'll be shocked if he doesn't make an all-defensive 1st or 2nd team this year.

White is the ultimate glue guy.  He may not be a #1 option and may even be a stretch as a #2 option - but he's the kind of glue guy that makes exactly the play you need, at exactly the moment you need it.  He's the type of guy that could win you championships.  The kinda of guy who win Finals MVP as your #3 option. 

I feel there are teams out there who would pay a LOT of money for a guy like White.

He should get the same contract Jrue just received. 4 years, $135M.

He is 4 years younger than Jrue.

Murray got a $100K fine but no suspension.

The fine is admittedly a fat one, but I fail to see why Dejounte Murray bumps a ref and gets a game last year while Murray throws junk at a ref TWICE and doesn't miss time.  The Nuggets got really lucky.  I think it's pretty clear that the league isn't going to suspend a star player from an important playoff game unless he comes on court with a shotgun.

There is way too much TV money involved for the 0-2 Nuggets to lose their second best player due to a suspension. I bet if the Nuggets were up 2-0 or if the series was tied, then he would have been suspended for one game.
