Brooks and Crawford Just traded. (Per Woj Tweet)

[LooseCannon]

Don't know why a lot of ppl like draft picks...I rather have proven NBA players than all these picks that, who knows, all may be busted picks

It depends on the player and depends on the pick.  A late second has more value than MarShon Brooks.  Jordan Crawford is probably worth more than a second  and less than a first.   

Plenty of poorly-run teams have killed themselves by treating picks like candy and throwing them into deals for established veterans.

Is "T Will" in town? Heard he might be headed to Maine. Would not mind having him fill an empty spot on the roster.

He signed in LA (the D-league team) I believe.

People are sleeping on the best benefit from this trade: no more threads about playing MarShon Brooks.

Amen brother  .......yes it's worth a 2 nd rounder to rid of him .....

Jordan Crawford is a terrible player however. So he is putting up 13 and 6 on a terrible team playing what, 35 to 40 minutes a night?

Sadly, your perception just doesn't match the reality. Crawford plays 30 minute a night (posting 14 and 6 in the process). That's on track to post 18/8 if he did indeed play 40 minutes a night -- just in case you wondered

...Crawford is a terrible player, though. And he was a bad teammate from an objective perspective. Anyone who watched a game realized that Crawford was not in the long term plans for a competitive team. He shot more shots than everyone on the team other than Bradley and Green--that could explain for his high point totals.

He averaged the most TOs on the team, and his FG percentage had dropped to just 1 pt higher than Bayless' on the season. I think you're giving the dude too much credit. A lot of players' stats look great when spread out over 40 minutes.

On a per-minute basis, he took less shots than Bradley, Green and Sullinger. He also took just .5 shot per 36 minutes more than Courtney Lee. Pegging him as the 4-5 scoring option on the team is probably an accurate assessment.

I'm glad you loved Crawford. He needs that. He was so awesome as a Celtic. I bet you will be rooting for him in GS. It should be a nice ride for you as they are a pretty darn good team.
