he sucks. Crawford without the highlights
whoa buddy your buggin. Ben Gordan is WAY better than Jamal Crawford. Check the stats and efficiency.
The shooting efficiency from both practically mirrored each other last year.
must be talking abt circus mirrors.
it took crawford 300+ more shots to avg 2 more points than gordon. and gordon was 5% pts better than crawford from the line and from 3.
43% fr the field overall is a helluva lot more respectable than 41 esp. when you consider gordon is 5 in shorter and also lives and dies shooting jumpers over people.
My original point is this --- that Gordon and Crawford are comparable talents, but with the way people reacted to my first post, you would think that I compared Jordan to Ronaldo Balkman.
And despite the fact that they're fairly similar, three point shooting none withstanding, Crawford has been relentlessly hammered here.
In Crawford you're talking about a guy that has been a largely undisciplined player, who played on a wildly dysfunctional team last year --- and despite that still performed reasonably well. I guess the point is that I dont think the disparity between their talents is that dramatic that we need to break our necks to bring in Gordon in favor of Crawford.
It was hilarious that somehow Gordon being short was somehow a plus in his favor according to your post. Crawford's a talent and I think he can flesh out that ability in a more effective system.
