For about the 1st year he was here he would pump fake and take it strong to the hoop and finish. Slowly he has morphed into a horrible offensive player.

What's going on? Is it just brads system?

I say throw JB in the starting lineup, what do we have to lose? Jae ain't cutting it.

No its not you. In fact that is what got him injured. He is not going to do that again until he gets paid.

Unless you can show some numbers, I say it's just you.

He's just not athletic enough, can't get by anyone. Should be a bench guy on a better team.

I totally agree. For whatever reason he does the outside shot thing. I don't know how but his rebound #s are actually up a little though

No it's not u, I can't stand it!!!  Too many contested three's, stands and watches the ball when the shot goes up, horrible D, lackadaisical effort!   I seriously have been trying to figure out what he brings to this team besides a cheap salary.

I would not mind the outside shooting if he was making them. I think sometime next year brown begins to take more of crowder minutes.

Crowder, outside of his 6/8 3pt game, has had a bad playoffs.  He just isn't making the impact that I thought he would.

It is just you, he has played horrible for all but one game in the playoffs, 2-9 today.   I would not mind seeing traded at this point, because he thinks he is an offensive stud and he is a dud!

I have a bigger problem with his defense. He just doesn't impact a game like he did the previous 2 years. He's a 20-30 min player off the bench on an elite team.

Crowder pack your bags and your attitude and get out of here lol. That's why Celtics fans chanted Gordan Hayward because he will be your replacement.

Crowder might make a great sixth man.

Pretty much this. He's been just as terrible, if not more, defensively as offensively. Both Crowder and AB have been major disappointments this series so far, especially the last two games. They're not helping IT out offensively, and they're not making up for his lack of D defensively.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.
