We shouldn't cut Crawford if for no other reason than we can package his contract into a trade.

Wow, you really don't like Crawford, do you? I understand that he isn't the most mature kid, but he is hardly a scrub - averaging 13 ppg over 25 mpg in his first three years in the league. I get that it was mostly as a Wizard, but he has talent and has certainly shown glimpses.

The kid is a career 40% field goal shooter, who hits 30% from three.  Those are terrible numbers for a SG, and are scrub level.

Then, there are his numbers from this series.  4.5 points, 33% shooting, more turnovers than assists and rebounds combined, a 3.0 PER.  That's in a healthy 14 minutes per game.  Crawford got deservedly benched.  Calling him a scrub in this series is probably an insult to scrubs everywhere.

Crawford is absolutely the last guy who should be opening his mouth.

Absolutely. Did not see when he got his 4 min. in the final game, but I was hoping Doc would make him sit the whole game.

I thought it was a puff piece featuring Lala Anthony.

Turns out he's just confusing J-Craw with vet min bums. J-Craw has trade value.
