Maybe I'm over-reacting a bit, but it seems like Crowder hasn't played too well since the Twitter rant. He could very well need to be benched if only to make him work harder and be consistent.

I also wonder if giving Jaylen more of his minutes would help the rookie's the development. So far....I think Stevens has been under-using him. Jaylen has tremendous athleticism. There's no question that he has a higher ceiling than someone like Jerebko.

Brown cant beat out Gerald Green. Why would he deserve to be a starter when he has shown only glimpses of being an NBA player.

Crowder is fine. He will have his good spurts and bad spurts just like any other player.

Any clue why Jaylen hasn't been sent to Maine?

...It really doesn't make sense having him waste away on the bench with so little time on the court. Would like to see him develop more and see what kinda stuff he has

They are hoping he will play his way into the rotation. But it is Green that is playing his way into the rotation. Also, Jaylen might blow up the D league or get injured.

Team needs another professional scorer like Hayward or Butler and PG.

Jae is a good spot up 3pt shooter and that is it. His D has regressed badly.

I have no idea if Jaylen ever improves or who he could morph into but i sure hope its not Jae.

He immediately benched him right after he fouled a jump shooter.

Yes but more minutes for Gerald Green not Brown.

Because Jaylen Brown has been oh-so-great?
