We'll see. Jimmy was also a poor shooter in his early years. Justise is only 20, a lot of development years left. Jimmy didn't break out till he was 25.

Brown is not going to take that long, though. 5 years? He may be an All-Star by then.


Another 2 more years. Definitely has all star potential.

NBA has sure screwed up the game with these stupid ref reviews. Watching curling would have been more exciting than watching the last 3 minutes this game I swear. And I hate curling.

Seriously. If it's Game 7 of the Finals and you're trying to figure out who the ball went off of, replay away. If you're trying to figure out how to play politics with Justise Winslow's knees and Marcus Smart's balls in this 9 point game with 30 seconds left, **** off. Making the refs the center of the action like that is ridiculous.

I think you are seriously underrating a healthy Crowder. Main reason we had so many wins last year and why our team plays like total crap when he is injured.

Crowder is a backup on a Contending Team. No doubt.

No team is going to win a Championship with Crowder as the Starting SF.
Other than that, though. Yes, he's a good Glue guy.

Tons of teams can win a ring with Crowder as a starter. But it stipulates you have your 3 other stars.

Put Crowder on GS last year and they have a much easier time closing out that 3-1 lead on LeBron.

I mean 3 and D are perhaps the most sought out asset to start next to 3 star teams since they fit so flawlessly.

Well that's what happens when the refs fall behind with bad calls - bad technical against Whitehead, bad blocking calls when Celtics had position, costly bad flagrant call against IT, and while I have no problem saying what Winslow did wasn't accidental, it is something that is never called and was only called as a "makeup." Blame Draymond for doing it on purpose so obviously, so often. The net result of these calls hurt the Celtics, and it was good to see them find a way to finish it.

Crowder has hit his ceiling. Good player but limited offensively due to lack of handle, quickness, athletic ability. Jaylen only has to improve his handles and shooting to be better than Jae. Jae's handles are a mess which limits his ability to penetrate and get int the paint. We've already seen that aspect of Brown's game. Once he gets a legit jumper/3 point shot..lookout.
