    If defended halfway decently, nothing. But it's caught the defense asleep for easy points a few times. Dame is reading his defender. If the defender overplays, we've seen Dame break to the rim for a back door layup. If they trail, he uses the big man with the ball as a screen to rub his defender off and get the ball with some room to attack. Sometimes they give him enough room to get off a 3.

    But usually it's just a handoff.

    How many teams are in your league? Crabbe isn't even rosterable in a 10 team league

    I blame coaching. Why the fuck aren't they addressing this in practice?

    Fuck fuck fuck, why didn't I start Crabbe? This really fucking sucks. He's gonna have his best game of the year.

    Maybe Olshey is putting pressure on Stotts to play Vonleh, since Vonleh was the centerpiece in the Nic Batum trade. So far, he's not shown any flashes of anything.

    God Crabbe was such a great pick up for a 2nd rounder. He's doing as good as you wanted from him this year. He should be even better next year.

    A few games ago, he had a 15 second stretch where he hit a three, blocked a shot, and then dunked. Great flash. He also hit a game tying three down the stretch of a game a couple weeks ago.

    Crabbe and Barton were both awesome picks.
