Jae Crowder is ***

I added my last paragraph just for you my friend. Crowder wasn't paid 30mil a year. Neither is he paid 20mil this season. If you think 15 pt a game is "good" for a guy we traded 3 guys, 2 FRPs and 30mil in salary cap for, I don't know what else to tell you.

Also like I said, his last seasons number is doing a lot of heavy lifting for his overall numbers. His 2019 and 2022 seasons number just aren't good no matter how you look at it

Crowder has made around $25 million combined the last 3 seasons. Conley has made around $90 million.

And we could actually argue who was better in the playoffs the last three years. The fact that it's a discussion at all shows how bad the Mike Conley trade was.
 
Lessee...Conley was supposed to be the third of the Big 3 that would lift us into contention. He was apparently worth $30 million a year to do so. And he put up stats just barely better than a role player like Crowder? Man that is just sad.

You are making the mistake of trying to stick to Conley vs Crowder alone.

The argument really should be Conley vs Crowder+Grayson Allen+Brandon Clarke+ the first round pick we are about to select for Memphis. Like I said, one team will become a perennial title contender because of this trade and that team isn't the Jazz.

He's definitely a negative offensively and probably overrated defensively. I do think this team has missed his attitude and toughness.

This team needs attitude and toughness for sure but it makes me wonder if a player like Crowder was with the Jazz, would he change the culture or would he be run out?

I think Jae loved and was loved here. I think he was very disappointed that he was traded. And I don't see any reason to believe that Rudy, Joe, Don or anybody else was happy he was traded.

Like I've said all along, Jae Crowder should have never, ever been traded. Teams need more guys like that not less of them. We should have insisted that Memphis take Favors instead. We could have still made the numbers work adding Bojan.

Jae has been really good and also really **** at different points in his career. It seems completely random whether he plays well or not. That's just the type of player he is, you never know what you're going to get.

You’re going to get a dude that gums up the game for the opponent and has his teammates back no matter what.

That **** matters.

Not to mention both Crowder and Favs were signed for the same exact contract in 2020. One helped his team to the NBA final again. One has to be salary dumped to OKC just one season later, costing his team a FRP in the process.
