But all star? nah top 5 sg in the L? hell no. sorry to say this but he should be a sixth man microwave on a contending team. he's too inconsistent to be a full time starter. especialy on a team that try's to define itself and tries to win ballgames he’ll be they leading scorer.

he was always trying to prove himself- and had success individually, althouh his teams werent winning. so he tried to adapt to larry brown’s coaching style/pg style, but just coudlnt succeed in that system. now everyone thinks hes washed up. he didnt JUST NOW decide to start proving ppl wrong….he tried to adapt to being more of a role player…something he isnt used to. i think if coach dantoni played to his strengths more, he can still put up very nice numbers- especially in his system where there are more shots to go around.

this all to say that i still think larry brown killed steph’s career. every off season you hear steph saying “im working out hard and am gona come back strong this year” hes ALWAYS trying to prove himself, especially bc hes in nyc, his home. but this is all NOT an excuse for his attitude- that is something he stilllll needs to fix….

speaking of pg’s trying to adapt styles. how many points do you think nash could avg if he wasnt a pass first pg? 25? 27? hes not super quick, but he gets anywhere he wants on the court and has one of the nicest/consistent strokes in the league.

Thought another year at Michigan would have helped him reign in his game a little bit, but he can flat out ball. This article asks an intriguing question, and the idea of a supercharged Jamal Crawford is exciting, as a fan of his and a general Knicks supporter. Regardless of the end results for the team, I agree with the sentiment that Jamal is poised for a successful individual season. I don't know if players over 25 can have "breakout" seasons lol, but Jamal should have one of the better seasons of his career this season. Jamal Crawford is immensely talented.
