McDaniels can defend. The two are very different types of players. Have you seen anything suggesting Crabbe can be a competent defender? He was abused during the GSW series.
Crabbe is a career 38.5% 3-Pt shooter, and just completed his 3rd season. It is somewhat limited, because he totaled 66 games in his first 2 seasons.

i'd say the biggest difference between Mcdaniels and Crabbe is that McDaniels sucks and Crabbe doesn't.
Problem is that we don't know what McDaniels is, has not gotten a fair shake. Crabbe is a good player but not one you overpay for on the market.
KJ can't get on the court! its ridiculous to compare him to Crabbe or for that matter any rotation player in the league. If he was what you guys want him to be he would have played. especially this year.
