the kid has a talent for timing charges, and unafraid to put his body on the line to stop the fast break; it’s something i’ve always immensely respected him for given many of these guys are practically as strong as cars. moreover, he’s often not drawing charges on guards but rather 225lb+ pf’s and centers. willingly standing in front of a moving car to help the team win will always be commendable in my book. as much as 🥦 man drives me insane, his hustle is indisputable.

You see, his caption is smart because although he’s not da goat. He fits the description…which could be interpreted to mean he is in fact…a goat by nature. Not quite sure who billed him that describes though. We reached out for further clarification, and have yet to hear back.
People prefer players who make blocks and smack it into the stands. A charge gets you the ball back and a foul. I don’t know if there is a stat for offensive fouls drawn but he gets cracked more than anyone. He isn’t baiting he’s just flying over screens and taking bumps. Every one is a turnover. I love anyone who’s willing to put their ass on the line for the boys.

Wow much respect to Derrick White!
Podz is ass.
Respect.

I swear every time he draws a charge, they give right back by turning it over on the other end, and its usually some BS like an “illegal screen” am I tripping?
for his contract, he’s actually incredibly good value.
Notice how his name is in trade talks and hasn’t moved the needle? Bucks aren’t clamoring for him like you think.
That’s wild how Brunson same height has contested so many more threes than podz 😂
Yet he’s “bad” at guarding threes because he’s short
Would be awesome if he could teach the skill to other players and the Warriors averaged like 10 charges drawn a game. But I suppose that’s not possible for a number of reasons. His lack of size probably helps. Didn’t Post try one recently and got the blocking foul instead?
Yeah my guy needs to be taking more shots on the defensive end
