    Crabbe is the guy I am disappointed on defense he got burn 2 on back door play and in the 1st half he just stood there and watch lee get the ball and cause Nurk to commit foul for his hustle.

    The guy got paid and just doesn't give a shit anymore. One year of basketball got him 70M, now he can enjoy it!

    Would be the perfect backup C to Nurkic. Could also play some PF next to Nurk, as he's a very good midrange shooter.

    Would you trade the Cleveland pick for him?

    That would explain his herniated discs.

    Not according to some guy sitting in my row. As soon as Damian made his first shot of the third quarter - "AIN'T NO GAME WITHOUT DAME!" "OH IT'S LILLARD TIME!" "WHAT TIME IS IT, Y'ALL??" Then every foul on us wasn't actually a foul, and any missed free throws resulted in, "COME ON, HE DOESN'T SHOOT THAT BAD IN 2K!"

    Bullshit. He's having a great year. He's arguably the best shooter in the league. He would've been a star in Brooklyn.

    The only dude who'd argue he's the best shooter in the league is you.

    Do you realize he shoots the 2nd or 3rd best 3point percentage in the whole league?

    Mind you it's on a TON of attempts

    Hell, we could probably get O'Quinn for Napier and a 2nd or two.

    1.) All of those are created by others
    2.) He doesn't shoot many
    3.) He hasn't proven its sustainable at 44%
    4.) His shooting doesn't open up other areas of his game.

    Don't even waste your time, the Crabbe hate has blinded these idiots.

    He's the fourth most important player on the team behind the the dame, Nurk, CJ trio. I don't even want to think what our team would look like without him on it. His shooting bails this team out so many times it's ridiculous.

    Huh? JJ reddick doesn't go one on one and hit 3s in people's face.

    He shoots like four 3s a game which is pretty above average and still hits for one of the best 3point shooters for the league

    He's been shooting above 40% from 3 all season. Just because he doesn't do stupid heat check 3s with 22 seconds left on the shot clock like Lillard does means he hasn't proven it? lol Lillard never even shot above 40% from 3 in his career.

    Play like him Rip Hamilton period

    Crabbe is nice your hella trippin
