Ummmm yeah, does that one play in particular remind anyone of a certain game winning game 6 shot by a certain someone from Chicago, against Utah, in 1998?

not really, because Craw didn't need to push off

crack, crack

as in a Craw coming out of its egg shell, ready to fly...

Crawford does that move all the time....he usually bricks the hell out of that shot. He needs to make a variation to that move. Maybe double cross over and drive to the right.....or hesitate and just go right......or hesitate, do a in and out dribble and crossover to the left......his handle is great but not when he does that same move that never (except against a idiot that don't watch film)works.

Gordon is a sucky defender and can't do anything but chuck.....that's why bums like Duhon are starting over him.[:(!

It we have to be critical, there is extra motion in his arms as he elevates. Rather than a silky smooth shot, he is adjusting as he rises and that will result in bricks more often than not. You will notice he brings his arms slightly down before he begins his shot. But, I think he could have done the "I'm a little teapot" dance rather than shoot and I would still love the clip.

his feet look set to me. Your feet don't HAVE to point to the basket. The point is, by the time the move was over, he was WIIIIDE open and he came to a quick stop, hence, it was a simple set shot afterwards. It was all so quick, but it's a move Jamal can do. A year ago, Jamal would have attempted that move from 28 feet away, the defender just would have backed off and when he picked up his dribble, he would have gone right back up on him, knowing that Craw would have jacked it up, (Which he would). This year, he has a good arsenal from midrange, which is becoming more and more defined each game. If he can keep it up, we will be set at our guard position.

I have no problem with that move. I hate it when he does that then fades away and shoots an airball. That move right there is pretty unstoppable!

Yea that pissed me off a lot last season. He would make that move, get free, and then shoot a fade-away even though there would be no one in front of him.

Jamal has the tools to be a great one-on-one player. With Brown here, I'm hopeful that Craw will use those skills wisely to become the player he can be.

That move should only be used for last second shots--that's called the same crap we saw all last year

....and this is called extreme hating

I think the bigger issue is that he adjusts the shot on the way up = erratic shooter ("Chucker")

He can get that shot any time he wants, but will not hit it at a steady clip unless he changes his shot (which I don't expect)
