I'm guessing from Crawford's vote on "biggest impact"... the question can include a negative impact? lol
Blake and Deandre also received votes for being most athletic even though Westbrook, Lebron and Lavine got the bulk of the votes

I was going to give the general managers the benefit of the doubt in assuming that they recognize his "negative" effect rather than positive, but the rest of the list contains players viewed fairly favorably. Well, if that's the case, one of those GM's better make us an offer. I'm not sure what Doc is asking for but I wouldn't expect much back unless we were packaging him in a bigger deal.
