Jae Crowder's defense vs the Magic.  I like it how he pushed his own teammate Zeller lol. That's serious defense.

CBS said Jae Crowder is like a bigger Marcus Smart. Which could be trouble/reduce min for guys like Jeff Green, Evan Turner  when that "kind" of defense is required.

Another one of these threads. Wright and Crowder are both gone within a year. Wright can't guard anyone in the post and his offensive game consists of dunking. He is a nice 15-20 minute per game player and a good weak side shot blocker. If Stevens said Crowder is a bigger Marcus Smart, all I can say is

wright is better than perk as a center.

I respect your opinion, but no way.

Crowder is a keeper. He's the kind of guy you surround your stars with(We currently don't have one but we will eventually). He's a defensive specialist w\ a cheap contract, can guard 1 through 4 and occasionally hit the three ball. He is only 24 and still has upside.

I hope we keep him. We need to get tougher.

It depends what his cost is.  His offense is well below average, and his defense against SFs is probably average at best.  He's a guy who is nice to have at the end of the bench, but he's nobody that I'd want to rely upon in the rotation.
