Will this guy ever pass the ball?

He passed once, his mom asked him for the butter.

Will this guy ever pass the ball?

 

Hes had 11 assist in the previous 2 games. For college that is a lot!

With all the things going on to complain about, your going to complain about someone who is 6-10 from the field at this point?

I saw poor defense and lack of execution as a team on offense as the main problem!

He's the slowest gunner in UK history.

Crawford's not even close to being up there with some past UK players...For the most part, he takes good shots and squares his body well and hits for a decent %...Where did this thread come from????

He's a gunner for sure but he's got a long way to go to match Derrick "Deke" Miller on Pitino's first team.

Crawford just tries to do too much.

 

I think Joe, much like Kelenna Azubuike, has had a difficult time making the transition to college basketball. They were both prolific scorers in high school, but at that time they were far superior athletically. In college, they lack the ability to truly create their own shot off of the dribble. Sure, Crawford can pull up and shoot over top of somebody because of his excellent elevation, but when was the last time you saw Crawford take 2 dribbles and pull up and shoot a jumpshot? Honestly, I can't remember it.

:thumb: :thumb: Well said.

I think Crawford will come into his own by the end of the season.

I think he is a selfish/lazy player as well.

That was back in the day when UK basketball was actually FUN!

I don't think he's lazy - I think he works his butt off to get a shot. I think that he presses like every shot will determine if he makes it to the next level or not. He tries too hard instead of letting the game flow to him.

Good point...I remember Keith Bogans was pretty much the same way and then when he finally realized that if he let the game come to him and stopped forcing things, became a very good player who made it to the next level, but, it was well into his Jr year before that happened, so, let's give Joe the time to work out his own situation and find himself as a player...
