As much as we've been on White for his shooting, his playmaking and D are still good.

But one of his biggest contributions is the ability to play PP as a 2 with him. You couldn't do that with either Schroeder or Richardson.
Ding ding ding. It allows PP to give the opposition a headache with off-ball movement and shooting.

His defense actually looks improved, too. I think he realized that he's got to be solid there defensively if he wants to play in Ime's system.

You'd think with his size that he'd be exploited more, but I don't see it all that much anymore.
I think he's gotten stronger. He's not at that Kyle Lowry level of ridiculously stout and little, but he's not bowled over by everyone bigger than him anymore.

Of course, guys can still rise up over him. But he does what he can.
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
SF: Brandon Roy (08-09) / Walter Davis (78-79)
PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

At what point do you say this is beyond a funk from White? These threes aren’t even close. He has a very flat footed shot that needs work.

GS is a good matchup for him - not so long - and when they get Klay onto him the Ca send help.

I like Poole. He'd look nice in green.

I don't watch any NBA games outside of the C's anymore.  I had no idea Poole was this good.

Great run to get the lead back to 19.

Is it me, or does Brown look like he’s miserable. Even when they win

Okay, that's it for me. Even with Step missing the 2nd half, they more than made up for it with Poole stepping in. Great game guys and TPs to everyone on page 20!  ;D
