The Celtics came out victorious over the Heat in their home opener to go 2-0 led by Derrick White's heroics.
Jimmy Butler got loose on a breakaway, Derrick White sprinted back. Butler thought he had another easy dunk as White rejected his two-handed jam at the rim for the second time on the night. He displayed multiple emphatic blocks as he usually does as the league's best shot-blocking guard last season.
Many would argue White may have became the third best Celtic last season. The team was vocal about wanting him to be more comfortable and get to his regular self offensively as that basically came about. He had an incredible postseason, and a big reason to why the Celtics almost made history last May in the Eastern Conference Finals.
"Credit to those guys, just giving me confidence and trusting me that I'm gonna try to make the right play each and every time," White said."I mean, hearing it from some of the top guys in the league that they want me to be aggressive, it obviously gives you more confidence.""Joe's given me confidence since the moment he stepped into the head coaching position," White said."So, all of those combined and I just gotta go out there and be aggressive.
