Derrick White is not the same player he used to be. When he shoots, the Celtics win.
BOSTON — As the wrapped their final practice before the came to town, was working on missing. Remember that in Miami last year? It wasn’t random. White practices that. That’s why on Monday, a big plastic egg crate covered the rim where White and his coaches were working. His touch has been so good lately, that they couldn’t let him practice offensive rebounding without a lid on the hoop.
“So I think when those guys get more and more shots, it means we’re getting to the different layers of our offense which is important against a team like this.” The thing about White is he takes some bad shots now, but somehow usually in the right moments. He used to be reticent to take anything out of the rhythm of the offense, but launching this shot with 17 seconds on the clock is audacious. White broke from the play to take a 3 that Garland nearly blocked, because he felt it.
