The Drew League

An off-season league where players go to play and have fun.  Sometimes big names like KD show up but mostly players further down the bench.

Here's a video of Jordan Crawford goes mano-a-mano against Nick Young.

It's schoolyard, we shouldn't expect more, but what I notice about this video is not only how many Young highlights there are, but how often his defender is Jordan Crawford.

Our guy can shoot in a myriad of ways, but his defense?  Crawford makes me crazy.  Aside from his herky-jerky style of play that resembles a basketball versoin of Tourettes (except that he has the power to control that, sufferers from Tourettes don't) he strikes me as being a one-trick pony and his trick doesn't integrate well into a team-centric motion offense.  

In HIS defense, Nick Young is a handful.  He's 6'6" 200# vs Crawford's 6'4", 195#.  We've seen him go off against us on the Sixers numerous times, and that was with Bradley and Lee trying to stop him.

I wonder if pro scouts frequent this league?  I sure hope so...
