Jae Crowder, See Ya When We See Ya

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Something that went unnoticed to me about Crowder is his finishing touch around the rim. He had some very nice layups last night.

Guy is looking promising in his Cavalier role.
 
Not a fan of benching this guy. He instantly became a important piece and moves off the ball incredibly well. If anything JR's ass should accept the bench role and get his starter's ego out his head.

Playing Rose/Crowder/LeBron/Love/TT is better than JR being in there.

Then you flip it around and let Wade create for JR and Korver as instant fire power off the bench.

But back to Jae, he must be doing something wrong because he didn't see many 2nd half minutes and now he's moving to the 2nd unit.

It baffles me for a team that needs defense.
 
My exact thoughts

I didn’t even know this

He changed the starting lineup for the season to Rose/JR/LeBron/Kevin/TT. And Jae, who has been our best player during certain stretches, is the one getting stuck benched.

Low key, that second unit of Wade/Korver/Crowder/Green/? is going to murder benches though.

I don't think the move of TT back to starting and Love to PF is a big surprise. Probably not a good idea to bench JR after just giving him the starting nod, but having Jae and Lebron in a 2/3 setup would probably work. Jae will still get mounds of minutes.
 
Dont over react to the benching of Crowder, its to try and get the lineups even.

Crowder's biggest issue is his best position is sf and we have a better one of those.

Lue has changed linups now 3 times is 6 days, he is not done tinkering but wants to see what works best for the starters and the bench.
