Does Crawford have 6th man of the year locked down now?

With Carl Landry going to Sac-town to start, who does Crawford have to contend with for sixth man of the year honors?

What happened to J.T. and Al Harrington,? they were the front 2 guys the 1st month or 2 of the season.

Crawdawg is having one of those seasons where you don't even have to look at the other candidates. You just know there can't be anybody else in this great country (or Canada) who is as worthy, especially when you factor in his team being a "contender" and the Jet has never fit neatly into any type of categorization. Craw has proved to be a one-man bench.

Thats a bold statement man. Who knows maybe someone will give their team a huge push from here on out to get their team into the playoffs.

I still cannot understand why Crawford isnt starting? Don't you want your best 5 guys on the floor to start the game? The sooner he is in there, the sooner he

will get warmed up, find his rythym and start draining shots. You want to jump on your opponenets early and having your best 5 start the game helps you to do this.

Why don't we start Zaza and bring in AL off the bench at the 5 minute mark? Sounds dumb right? Well it's the same thing with Crawford sitting over Bibby. Makes no sense.

It isn't the same. Horford's primary skills are defense and rebounding. We can never get enough of that.

Crawford's primary skills are dribbling and shooting. There is only so much of that to go around. I'd rank our scoring priorities when in the game::

JJ - dominates ball

Crawford - dominates ball

Josh

Bibby

Horford

Marvin

Since Woodson frequently doesn't like to integrate bench players with the starters and goes more wholesale in his substitutions, it makes sense to stagger JJ and Crawford so that you have one of them in the game at all times to dominate the ball.

What is more important is who finishes the game and both JJ and Crawford are on the floor for that.

Since Crawford is getting plenty of minutes, I have no problem with our current top 6 rotation.
