Jae Crowder, See Ya When We See Ya

[rastamon87]

How does JR greet him?

My guess would be a back fist to the jaw.

With shirt off...

Iggy hit everything in the finals. Iggy has that superstar clutch gene. He fucked up with that dunk in 2016, but he made up for it in 2015 and 17.

For sure. The question now is how does Shump fit in? Can we move him for someone that defends guards better than Wings? JR, Crowder, LeBron, and Jeff Green gives us enough wing defenders. IT and Rose aren't known to be good defenders, we need a SG or combo guard that can defend PGs

Plus Osman... there should be another trade before training camp... we have too many players on the roster... hopefully we get another big

Hopefully we did some wink wink deal with Boston to pick up Calderon if we waive him. I think Shump and Frye get traded before the season.

Not really from a pure numbers standpoint. We'd just have to cut Felder and Edy.

IT/Rose/Calderon
JR/Korver/Shumpert/Osman
Bron/Crowder/RJ
Love/Green/
TT/Frye/Zizic

But I agree that there will almost assuredly be another trade before the season starts. Shumpert is def out someway somehow.

Backup SF is very crowded now.

Korver, Green, Crowder,Jefferson, Osman and even Shump.

Sure Green can play some PF, Jefferson Likely retires, and OSman and Shump can both play SG, but wow is that a crowded position.

I know many are saying what do we do with Shump now, but its allot more than just Shump.

Yah, hopefully get a bit younger and more athletic... RJ, Shump, Frye, Kay and Tavares might be good for a team looking for a salary dump... not sure if Calderon can be traded...

I'm fine with cutting Edy, I would give Felder one more year especially with IT on the team. Hopefully IT will help Felder develop so he has some trade value going forward.

Hopefully Calderon will get waived before the season and Boston or another team we trade with will pick him up in a wink wink deal.

Would the Bucks do a straight trade of Shump for Delly? We really need someone to defend PGs.

Calderon will be here. Rose is injury prone and IT might not be ready at the start of the season. Calderon is a solid 3rd PG who doesn't turn the ball over and can hit the 3.

He's not a backup PG but he's a good fit for this team.

Any chance he starts at the 2 over JR?

Crowder is a SF/PF type guy more than a SG.

He will play heavy minutes and will likely be on the court in key moments though.

He will certainly be starting on nights LeBron rests.

 

[KilgoreTrout]

I've been hoping for Crowder for a while. Finally a guy with some toughness. All is forgiven.

 

[brownsbuck6]

All those fantasy trades with Love going to Boston with Crowder involved.. very ironic we get him but with Kyrie involved. Who would have believed this was possible a year ago. Insanity.

Of course the bucks would. But Shump can guard PGs a lot better than delly.

Not sure Shump can guard anyone all that well right now. He is a fugazi defender. He looks great to the naked eye as an athlete. He can stay with almost anyone athletically. But he does a million things incorrectly on the mental side that completely negates his physical prowess out there.

He's neither a very good defender or a very bad defender. He's just an average to marginally decent defender that can be taken advantage of mentally. I much more prefer JR's D overall.
