Chucker

Lacks athleticism

Terrible defender

I don't like him.

A guy who dunked on Lebron when he was in College, lacks athleticism....?


Uhhhhhhhh...

I agree with the chucker and terrible defender, but......

The lack of athletic ability comment is absurd. If you look at his body, I think this the comment is coming from the fact that he doesn't look athletic. There are a zillion guy like this. Barbosa doesn't look as fast as Rondo but is. Dave Cowens was the fastest guy in the league for years.

Crawford is a little quirky looking but is fast and is a tremendous jumper

[ManUp]

Crawford is the very definition of a chucker.

I'm not a fan.

[CFAN38]

I think fans need to take Jordan for what he is a young player from a bad team who is accustome to " getting his" . He can definelty score in the nba considering the cs got him for nothing and have him next year for cheap, I'm happy with him . Cs have 1 1/2 seasons to see if doc can help his bball iq and make him a terry like bench spark of the future.

Serious argument about the quality of Jordan Crawford's athleticism.

Serious questions about Jordan Crawford.

[csfansince60s]

A lot of players are looked at, even by other NBA coaches and players as not very athletic, but they are deceptively so.

None other than our own PP would amaze Doc when he was coaching the Magic.Doc has said that he would scratch his head and ask how that unathletic guy could have just dopped 25 on them.

Crawford is a scorer. Doc tells him he is in there to shoot.

Something cool just happened at the end of the first quarter with the Cs having the ball for the last shot.Crawford had the ball, gave it up to Green who then gave it back to Crawford.

Crawford on the left side outside the arc put his head down to drive to the hoop and hit a pretty stepback jumper at the buzzer. He then went right back to sit on the bench, put his head down looking for no accolades, almost humbly.That impressed me because of his alleged selfishness.

 It also was encouraging given it was in the flow of the game at the end of a quarter, when PP usually isos or Rondo pounding the ball runs out of options and throws up a forced jumper.Who would you rather take a shot for you at the end of a quarter? Rondo or Crawford? I'd take Crawford.

I like this kid.

We've got a guy to give the ball to when the shot clock is running down. His name is Jordan Crawford.

That's what he does. Doc, use him wisely.

[BudweiserCeltic]

Jordan certainly is a player that looks for his shot, and takes some bad shots at times (some which he actually makes), but in all this a lot is being missed, he's making some nice place for other players consistently, he's been a willing passer.

[SHAQATTACK]

Love his game...he is fearless.
