Jae Crowder is a defensive specialist. What makes him even more special is his contract, very team friendly. But, having watched him play last 2 seasons, he takes a lot of terrible shots. If he can fix that mental issue he will fit in great with the cavs and would be a great asset. Celtics were never going to win with Thomas, he can't defend anyone. That was displayed last season in conference finals as Irving destroyed him.

I'm real excited to see Irving work with Brad Stevens. Could be a special year for him.

Crowder won't be shooting a lot with a team like the cavs. He'll probably hear a lot from the more potent scorers on this time if he does that. There are probably 5 or 6 guys that are a better scorer than him so he'll likely focus on what he's good at which is playing defense

But he could be a potential options to shoot in case the situation arises. I'm sure he will need adjustment to fit in the system of Tyron and shooting outside will be less of a priority now as compare when we has with the Celtics. But if there are night when he's on fire, I'm sure coach Tyron wouldn't mind Joe Crowder shooting 3's. But he's priority will be on more a defense, would agree. And he is very athletic as well and can play 2 positions. I hope coach Tyron will find him a good place in the Cav's lineup. He's young a lot of improvements can be made and if you can cope with the system, he will soon be a star on his own.
That's why I'm saying he needs to fix his mental issues, as he does not recognize he's not an offensive player. So instead of passing the ball to a better shooter he opts to shoot himself.
Jae Crowder is not bad at shooting in fact last season was his most improved season in terms of both FG % and 3PT % definitely he will be a good scoring option in the Cleveland Cavalier's 2nd unit as he also has a 40% 3pt percentage. But enough with the talk on the individuals personally this team has re-shaped a lot with the departure of Kyrie Irving a lot of things will change because a new point guard will control the point and that is Isaiah Thomas, one good thing about here is Wade knows Lebron James.


None the less, if you have a team like the cavs who has a couple of mvps and finals mvp, people should know what their roles would be. It isn't like in boston where aside from isaiah, he'd be one of the primary options. Hell, isaiah won't even be in the top three options for their current team

Draymond Green is really unstoppable in terms of trashtalking. Cheesy

Draymond Green says Cavs 'didn’t stand a f*****g chance' in NBA Finals

“It pissed me off we didn’t sweep them, though.”

Cavaliers already accepted the defeat and I think they forgotten about it now and move on. Green really mad at Lebron James since prior to their NBA days. Smiley

Reading that article says
1. Green on beating the Cavaliers in five games:
First that article is really trying to make Green want to fight with anyone, he didn't beat the Cavs alone but it's his team Golden State Warriors. I don't know what's with this guy but it looks like he wants to mess out with everyone.

NBA legend Michael Jordan has warned the “superteam” era will create a league with 28 “garbage” clubs that will struggle.

He said this:

“I think it’s going to hurt the overall aspect of the league from a competitive standpoint.
You’re going to have one or two teams that are going to be great and another 28 teams that are going to be garbage,
or they are going to have a tough time surviving in the business environment.”

If the priority of the draft choice for the worst teams and the salary cup had to balance the strength of each team in recent years it seems that the gap is increasing. Perhaps it is no coincidence that so many records that seemed unbeatable in recent years have been made easily.



I will point the blame to players itself and the team management itself.

Superteam is a team consist of players who are still in "PEAK" without any strong competitors outside. Where does this started? When Kevin Durant joined Golden State Warriors. Warriors doesn't need KD and when KD joined the squad, Warriors is currently the dominant team in the league. For those who wil say that superteam era nowadays began when Lebron joined Miami, you are wrong guys. Back in that season, there are lots of teams who are dominant like Los Angeles Lakers, San Antonio Spurs and my favorite, Dallas Mavericks. Miami Heat didn't even grab the NBA champ title back then.

If we will take the concern today, I don't consider recent trades as superteams. Why? Because players involved are not in prime anymore. OKC is a super team for example? for me NO. Houston Rockets, still no. Cavaliers, again no.
I agree people who have joined with this super teams like Cavaliers, Golden State Warriors, and maybe Oklahoma City Thunder are players who are desperate to have a championship on their names. And I can't blame them because one thing that is missing from this great players are rings and that is what will make things complete for them. But look what will happen even some playoffs teams have lost their hope on winning a championship.

I agree with his statement, NBA is not a real competition but an entertainment, players are paid from the income generated by the team
so if the team is not good and fans does not support it they will lose the market and that is not a win-win for the players and the owners. I'd like to see players who has balls like Westbrook because he stay and prove he is better even without durant.
But look at him now he got George and Anthony though its early to celebrate but for sure they got the winning chances now even competing with super teams and with MJ statement it can be a challenge to overall management of this league as we knew things will not be good for those teams which can't afford to build and pay superstars.

I think that Jae Crowder case was wrong.
I don't understand why the Boston Celtics had to get him, he is already 27 years old and I couldn't see him doing anything special at the last season that should get him picked so early.
He is a good Small Forward, I agree, but I think that there was better options at the draft pick.
Let's hope that the cetics knows what they are doing.

I hope Celtics management will not be regret for trading Jae Crowder.

He did a great performance throughout the pre season and expect it will show up on the regular season games. A big man that can dominate inside that also have a good hands out from the three point area, awesome guy and really fit for Cavaliers system. Although he is still on building chemistry with the Cavs, surely he can play his usual plays.

Yes he have a pulse at rainbow area even his days at the Boston Celtics that's why other fans really surprised that Celtics gave up this rising star.

He was actually a Small Forward but with his athleticism he can also adapt Power Forward position when needed. In their recent game against the Cavaliers, he made 3 out 4 shots from the rainbow area which is pretty good stats. And yes he still under the adapting the system of Lue but surely soon he can cope up.
