    he played sg in boston just fine. especially when bradley has been sidelined for a significant portions of his time there.

    anyways you seem to still be stuck on this specific label when it really doesnt matter much. a lot of minutes are in store for crowder

    it basically is lebron at the 4. theres going to be plenty of cross matches bw crowder and lebron, depending on who the opponent is. and yeah theres not many big 4's anymore. most of these guys play away from the basket which allows versatility defenders like crowder, tucker, moute, etc to match up against them. AD even fits that. he may be tall and long but he still plays out on the perimeter for much of the game.

    won't be playing much at SG, especially over wade, JR, and even korver [if they stay healthy]

    i know exactly how the league has transitioned.

    no amount of positionless strategy is gonna make harden a good power forward or ryan anderson a good shooting guard..

    harden is better defensively at "pf" and this ryno example does not apply bc he isn't versatile enough to play "sg" hes a 4/5 in this era which is what he plays at. know the player first

    hilarious you think hes better off guarding perimeter guys. i guess when you get put on the worst offensive player on the opposing team it makes people like you think that way

    lol, I had forgot about this...it looks like Crowder isn't going to be some marginal bench player for the Cavs after all which should've been obvious

    "Crowder will be lucky to play more than 15+ minutes per game."

    that's a direct quote from u

    that's still getting minutes.

    and he's still not playing SG.

    tell me how crowder is going to play shooting guard over wade, jr smith, korver, and shumpert?
