有时候，单刀直入或许是最佳选择
当德里克·怀特 (Derrick White) 被交易到波士顿凯尔特人队的消息传来时，你还记得自己身在何处吗？
我们都知道，德里克·怀特被交易至凯尔特人队，换来了约什·理查德森 (Josh Richardson)、罗密欧·兰福德 (Romeo Langford)、一个最终选中了布雷克·韦斯利 (Blake Wesley) 的2022年首轮签，以及一个在2028年与波士顿互换首轮签的权利。
但你是否知道，当德里克·怀特得知自己被交易到波士顿的那一刻，他正在哪里呢？
被交易这事儿太疯狂了。我们当时在亚特兰大。波波走进来，说道：“嘿……呃，我们把你交易了。”然后他就没再多说什么。我当时就问：“交易到哪儿？”他回答道：“我们不会坑你，我们把你送到了波士顿。”我回应说：“好吧，行，那很酷。”我心想：“嗯，我在那儿会适应得很好。”但当时我也很茫然：“呃，那我该怎么办？”（助理运动训练师）布伦丹·鲍曼 (Brendan Bowman) 给我发了条短信。他问：“要我来瓶酒吗？”我说：“要。”于是，我和鲍曼就开始玩多米诺骨牌，喝起酒来。
此后，怀特随这支豆城劲旅赢得了一座总冠军，并且至今仍是球队体系中不可或缺的一员。随着杰森·塔图姆 (Jayson Tatum) 赛季报销，在球队努力渡过难关，等待他们的超级巨星恢复状态归来期间，怀特的角色可能会变得更加重要。

Open Thread: How Pop let know Derrick White know he was being traded
Sometimes the direct approach is the best
Do you remember where you were when you head that Derrick White was being traded to the Boston Celtics?
We all know that Derrick White was traded to the Celtics for Josh Richardson, Romeo Langford, the 2022 first-round pick that conveyed as Blake Wesley, and the right to swap first-round picks with Boston in 2028.
But did you know where Derrick White was the moment he found out he was being traded to Boston?
Getting traded is crazy. We’re in Atlanta. Pop walks into the room and he’s like: “Hey…uh we traded you.” And he doesn’t say anything. I’m like, “To where?” and he was like, “We wouldn’t f*** you, we sent you to Boston.” And I’m like, “Alright, yeah, that’s cool.” I was like, “Yeah, I’ll fit well there.” But it was also like, “Well, what do I do?” (Assistant Athletic Trainer) Brendan Bowman, he texts me. He’s like, “You want me to get a bottle?” I’m like, “Yes.” So me and B start playing dominoes and drinking.”
White has since won a title with the Bean Town’s best and remains an integral part of their program. With Jayson Tatum out for the season, his role may increase while the team attempts to keep their heads above water until their superstar is back in shape.
