Jae Crowder had no idea how it would be received. The Bucks winger was making his first comeback to his old room in Phoenix tonight. It was also his first game at the Footprint Center this season since he had stayed away from the team while waiting to be transferred to Milwaukee.
“ Things ended on a bad note, so I appreciate the affection and the applause received tonight », release the interested party after the meeting. Applause yes, but also boos from his former audience when he entered the game, a few seconds after the broadcast of a tribute video during a time-out.
A remarkable comeback like a small “trashtalk” session between Devin Booker and him, at the end of the third quarter. The back had just planted a complicated shot in front of him, despite his good defense. Nothing really bad between the two men that we saw smiling together after the meeting.
Perfectly integrated with the Bucks
” It’s always nice (to fight with him). He is a high level competitor. I know what it is. We have experience together, I have a lot of respect for him and we give it our all on the pitch. Booker book. ” At the ‘training camp’, I am looking for this duel. I want it because if I can contain it, I can contain anyone in the league. What you saw was worthy of our training. Lots of ‘trashtalk’, contacts “Describes Crowder, renowned for his defensive qualities.
Last night, it did not shine only in this sector. With his 11 points (3/4 to 3-points) and 5 rebounds, the winger especially signed his second best offensive performance of the year. Jae Crowder notably converted a prize-winning shot into the form of a “dagger” one minute from the end. “ It’s my thing. It’s nice but I think we had a high level end to the match. We work for it “, remarks the 32-year-old player, who has averaged 6 points (48% including 39% from afar) since his arrival.
But whose contribution, like a PJ Tucker before him, goes beyond statistical production. ” He brings a winner’s approach, a competitor with a big IQ. Defensively and offensively, he knows what it takes to win. What he brings may or may not appear on the stat sheet. And humanly, the guys love him, he has integrated very well into our locker room. He has a voice, leadership, we are very lucky to have him “, Appreciates Mike Budenholzer, according to whom his recruit sometimes does things” that we’re supposed to do that other guys who’ve been here for five years don’t “.
So many services now rendered to the team that beat the Suns in the 2021 Finals.
