How long til we can trust Jae Crowder?

I think the better question is, how long until we figure out that Crowder just isn't that good? He's not good on either end, and his "hustle" is getting confused with recklessness.

I think he is definitely good. He's just very unremarkable as a player. I do like his ability cut and get to the FT line. Hopefully at some point the jump shot starts to fall at a higher rate.

He's been a good shooter one time in his career. Every other year has been below average. And even if the shot goes in, he's a reckless ball stopper who consistently makes poor decisions. His defense/hustle are very overrated as well.
 
he needs to play more as a 4 and have less responsibility on offense.
 
I'm surprised this overreaction thread isn't about Favors. Sure he seems like regular ol Favors but we just have not been good with him out there at all.
 
After watching him for 4 games now, I trust him to play hard but I don't think any of his jump shots are actually going to go in.

He has really weird form. The shooting coaches need to work with him to fix it. He could be a good shooter, as he gets his shot off pretty quickly and generally squares up well, but his form is almost like Lonzo's, but not as exaggerated.

In general for me the jury is still out on Jae. I am not sure we got equal value in that trade, although considering that likely we would have lost Hood in the off-season anyway some value is better than none. I do like his defensive intensity, but he really needs to solidify the "3" part in "3 and D", as well as play a little more under control.
 
1st of all ,Jazz need to let Exum play for better or worst because the better is that Exum and DM could give Jazz some serious speed and athleticism that they are just flatout not use too.
This grit and grind play of Crowder and O'Neale is not going to get Jazz to the playoffs or make them better for the long run. The points have grinded to a halt and Jazz are struggling to score when they need to the most.
For this offseason ,go get Hezonja ...he would look really good with Exum and Mitchell
