Crawford helps nobody, He doesn't defend and has horrible shot selection. Bibby, Marvin, Flip and Zaza are all free-agents and they're cash strapped (hence trying to deal Josh Smith) They could easily take a huge step backwards next season.

Man Crawford is probably one of the sickest one on one players in the game. The guy has the ability to get hot and drop 40 points in a game but the guy is like cancer or his style isn't just condusive to a winning team. Doesn't he hold the record for games without reaching the playoffs?

its official now. he can be a good scorer behind JJ and Marv on the bench. nobody will start him on that team. terrible move for GS, bcuz claxton is injured and law is a 3rd stringer.

Pure salary dump.
Speedy's insurance covers 80% since he pretty much ain't playing again due to injuries.
Law is only guaranteed $2mil.

why didn't colangelo get in on this.

banks + hump (GS needs a PF i hear), roko for crawford.

crawford is everything we are missing: slashing, creating his own shot, dribble penetration.

even if he is a "cancer" we could control his minutes coming off the bench.

NOBODY on the raps could guard Crawford.

I don't even think Crawford has even made the playoffs.

even if that's true, kush makes a good point. he could help us a lot with offense and maybe help our team into the playoffs again.

of course, after we draft DD in 20 minutes!

claxton is injured and is salary will be paid by insurance.
and claxton is expiring.
this is a salary dump by gs.
and crawford had to agree not to opt out of his contract.
they wouldnt touch banks with a 10 ft pole.
