Watching this video has made me appreciate OKC's team defence this year. A lot of times there a teammate would help contain penetration and allow Dort and the others to make the next defensive play. Was real cool to see.
Imagine him on the Mavs 😂. Do the magic want THJ? Lol Dallas starting Luka Kyrie Washington Isaac and lively/Gafford would be the #1 defense in the league
There’s something about watching defenders who are this good that is so satisfying. Mad respect to anyone who can stay in front of these ball handlers, even though every single thing the defender does is a reaction to something else. You basically have to read people’s minds. 3:17 is disgusting
He spooks the other team and it forces the momentum the other way. Who else does that? He is almost like a mythical creature slowly building minutes back from injury coming off the bench.
Most brain dead comment. What he does off the court does not matter. I’d love to see you get the injuries he’s had and come back after 2 years out and be the best defender in the league
Great title, and appreciate you letting the clips run, giving the plays full context - so often, DWhite's big blocks flow fairly seamlessly into transition points, and it is one of those points of nuance that doesnt get picked up in the stat sheets. Also, the number of transition points he wipes out with individual effort is staggering. Feel like he doesnt get credit for his track burst, either - he can catch up to pretty much anyone in the game in a dead haul. Incredible basketball player, nice video. (though I'm not crazy about the song)
Stevens got a defensive stalwart in White. He has blossomed into quite the handy player. Jrue I'm sure has a great deal to do with his progression. No doubt.
Bro this dude's energetic performance is really helpful for the entire team to play better in the clutch moment. (Help me find a word better than performance 😢 I am not native speaker)
