Yeah, Brad Stevens let Crowder blossom his team into a first round exit shooting 28% from the field and 24% from the three. What a developer.

The last paragraph was explicit in why he ultimately isnt higher.

Not if Crowder is your example. That is just explicitly dumb.

Crowder has two positive attributes...he can handle the ball and is a good defender.

Negatives? Not a good passer, not very athletic, can't shoot, and is rather small (like 6'4 1/2 without shoes).
