I was about 80% sold on him after the regular season and now I'm 100% sold on him.
I watched all 7 playoff games and he was tremendous for the most part. He showed poise and never seemed to be shaken under huge amounts of pressure. For a rookie that is huge and cannot be taught. He will take it as a learning experience and improve because of it.
He has a great work ethic because he had to earn a spot on the team and shows that he can play a huge workload. His coach and teammates not only like him, but have confidence in him so that's a huge plus.
I fully believe they will be able to re-sign him in the offseason and Salak will be their backup. Salak is a huge talent as well, but I can only imagine it will push Crawford even more.
