Derrick White & Jrue Holiday: The Stock Exchange



Derrick White & Jrue Holiday: The Stock Exchange

Derrick White and Jrue Holiday react to their nickname “The Stock Exchange,” and say they need some suggestions from Celtics Nation about a Stock Exchange handshake. They dive into what it’s like playing defense alongside one another, including Jrue’s disbelief at how Derrick blocks shots in so many ways as a guard. They also discuss how they communicate to each other in the middle of games, and give their takes on what makes both a great individual defender and a great team defense.

  1. Two great players, twp Great young Men, Just both Team first lock down defenders who can go and flow on BOTH ends of the court. Hope they both retire as Celtics. (rare in todays world I know)

  2. Having Holiday on with D White was a smart move to get White a little out of his shell.

  3. I’ve like Jrue Holliday, his whole career from way back with the Sixers as a rookie! I was so happy for the Celtics to get him and D White, just doing what he does and doing it extremely well! Low-key but he’s got game☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️👏👏✅

  4. Derrick definitely got more than just his busted tooth fixed 😂 Them things are blinding lol

  5. Celtics offense looks completely dominant, but sometimes if the 3s don't fall the 3s don't fall and there's nothing you can do about it… but you can always lock up on defense, home, away, game 1, game 7, rain or shine, whether you shoot good or not. THAT'S why the C's won the chip and it's why they can do it again. I don't have faith in this team to get buckets in the last minutes of a Finals game, but the other team sure as hell ain't scoring either. When our defense is locked in, it's wraps. Thank god for these two guys right here.
