Jamal Crawford Rumors & News

Chris Palmer of ESPN.com has written a piece based on a ride to practice with Los Angeles Clippers guard Jamal Crawford, who spent the 2011-12 season with the Portland Trail Blazers. Their conversation turns to Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry and how he would fare under San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich. Crawford turns the discussion into a reflection on his time with the Blazers. "A lot of success is about situation," Crawford continues. "How much do you think Steph would average under Gregg Popovich? "At least 22 a game." "You think he'd average 22? No way. Uh-huh." "...

As has been supposed for the final month of the season or so, J.R. Smith of the New York Knicks will win this year's NBA Sixth Man of the Year Award. Howard Beck tweeted this morning that it will be officially announced later today. Which clearly means that Jamal Crawford of the Los Angeles Clippers will not win the award. Crawford, who won the award while with Atlanta in 2010, will inevitably finish second in voting this season. That Smith will win the vote is not particularly surprising, but perhaps it should be. When All Star reserves were announced, Smith and Crawford were each fre...

Per ESPN: Knicks guard J.R. Smith has won the NBA's Sixth Man Award, a league source confirmed to ESPNNewYork.com's Ian Begley on Monday. The Knicks have called an afternoon news conference at which Smith will be given the award, the source said. The news was previously reported by The Associated Press. The eighth-year guard has averaged 18.1 points in 80 games, all off the bench. He had 29 games in which he scored 20 points as a reserve, tying him with the Clippers' Jamal Crawford for the NBA lead. Smith helped the Knicks win the Atlantic Division title for the first time since 1994....

The Los Angeles Clippers had so much fun during this, the most successful regular season in their history, that they apparently decided to keep it interesting to the very end. So they let the Sacramento Kings hang around and hang around, and even take the lead 98-97 on a Patrick Patterson three pointer with two and a half minutes left. But Jamal Crawford hit back to back threes of his own in response, the first coming on a broken play with the shot clock winding down and a hand in his face, and the Clippers got enough scores to hold on for the victory. Goodness knows they didn't get an...
