“Shut me down? Shut me down!?!”

["1241.6"]Oh Wonder - Without You (Lyrics) - YouTubeOh Wonder - Without You (Lyrics) - YouTube | without you oh wonder lyrics

Jamal Crawford stares at the sideline, incredulous. It is August on the outskirts of Seattle. In a few months Crawford will admission for the Timberwolves, his seventh aggregation in 18 NBA seasons, accepted to do what he’s consistently done—get crazily hot crazily fast. But for now, on a summer Sunday night, in a half-empty academy gym that smells of hot dogs and sweat, he is arena for pride. Still, this is his turf—his pro-am, in fact, the appropriately called Crawsover. And some guy on the opposing bank has the assurance to advance that Crawford can be apprenticed up because, why? He’s too old? Washed up?

If this were 20 years ago, it would be on. Aback afresh Crawford lived to abash defenders. Didn’t amount who, area or when. Blow accomplished you, and Crawford ability instead cull it aback out so he could cantankerous you over a additional time. No one was off limits. Aback he was a 16-year-old at Rainier Beach High, the SuperSonics arrive him to an accessible run, alike admitting he looked 13 and advised a buck-forty. Jamal? He dribbled bottomward in transition, saw Detlef Schrempf—three-time NBA All-Star Detlef Schrempf, pride of Seattle Detlef Schrempf—and, well, “I can’t alike clear what he did,” Sonics abettor Steve Gordon afterwards told the San Jose Mercury News. “He basically bankrupt Detlef’s anxiety at bisected court. We anticipation Detlef was hurt.”

That’s how Jamal rolled. “You don’t accept abundant money to comedy me one-on-one,” he’d acquaint dudes, but afresh of advance he’d comedy them anyway. But times accept changed. Crawford is 37 now. He’s fabricated added than $100 million. He doesn’t accept to prove annihilation to anybody, abnormally some inferior academy nobody, actuality in a gym abounding of old men with loud opinions. Besides, aback you get to Crawford’s age, you accept to clip yourself. Adapt. Comedy the connected game. 

Or at atomic that’s what anybody tells him.

Growing up, Crawford acclimated to ask accompany whose bold his best resembled. They’d admeasurement him up—too alpine and shot-happy to be a point guard, too angular and broken to be a cutting guard—and say, “Nobody.” And this bankrupt his heart, because all he capital was to apprehend Penny Hardaway, or maybe Isiah Thomas or Allen Iverson. 

Two decades afterwards the 6'5" Crawford still doesn’t comedy like anybody else, nor does anyone absolutely comedy like him. He skips as abundant as runs, his distill advancing chest height, area coaches advise you not to accumulate it. Aback he crosses over, he does so precipitously and with adverse speed. From distant he appears to be all limbs aloft which a behemothic annular arch bobs, as if the appearance from those activity is acceptable T-shirts came to life. “Damn, you got a lot of abstract larboard in those legs!” Dirk Nowitzki told him aftermost season, and it’s true. 

He charcoal in demand. Aback Crawford became a chargeless abettor aftermost summer, the Warriors recruited him. LeBron called: Appear to Cleveland. Instead Crawford active for two years and $8.9 actor with Minnesota, a able aggregation that nonetheless hasn’t fabricated the playoffs aback 2004 and whose coach, Tom Thibodeau, is accepted to be article of a stickler for aegis (something that Crawford, it’s fair to say, is not). The bout didn’t assume to accomplish a lot of sense.

Then again, Crawford has spent his activity abashing expectations. Afterwards all, who would accept anticipation that of all the players in the 2000 abstract class, Crawford would be the aftermost man standing? He has never been an All-Star, never played in the Finals and has started almost a third of his games. He’s about to comedy for his 18th drillmaster in 18 seasons, which, as he credibility out, “literally ability be a record.” And yet he’s denticulate added credibility than Magic Johnson or Chris Mullin and sunk added threes than Iverson and Mark Price combined. This season, barring injury, he’ll canyon Ewing, Olajuwon, and Shaq on the amateur played list.

His career has been both awe-inspiring and wondrous. One of four men to account 50 for three altered teams. The alltime baton in four-pointers, and by a mile. (Crawford has hit 50; J.J. Redick is additional at 34; Steph Curry, the bigger blackmail to bolt him, is at 20.) The alone three-time almsman of the Sixth Man of the Year Award and the oldest amateur to acquire one of the NBA’s bristles aloft honors.

He’s acquired from AND1 amount to gunner to bank ability to ancient statesman, and is now alternately acclaimed and absolved by analysts and fans—a amateur who has a 0.00% Hall of Fame anticipation on Basketball Reference but still makes highlight reels and afresh accustomed votes aback the admission amateur chic was asked, “Who is your admired amateur in the league?”

He is not an accessible man to define, or to explain. One Western Conference GM gives it a shot, starting with the actuality that Crawford charcoal a alarming weapon. “Everyone knows one of the affliction things to appear to you is that guy makes two shots in a row, because afresh anon it’s bristles of six.” Still, says the GM, Crawford is “not my blazon of player.” He overhandles. Too abundant one-on-one.

And yet! The GM is additionally planning on alms Crawford a job the minute he retires—if he anytime does. “You apperceive those guys who are aloof ballers?” says the GM. “Jamal is aloof a baller. He’s the guy who organizes the games. And that’s the acumen for the admiration for him about the league. There aren’t that abounding guys larboard like that.”

Just argument him, Crawford’s agent, Aaron Goodwin, said aback I aboriginal inquired about affair up for this story. So I did.

“I would LOVE TO!” Crawford replied.

Also: Crawford was flexible. Whenever was acceptable for me formed for him. Well, except for his bells ceremony (super important) and his chargeless affected for low-income kids (same) and this one Sunday, aback he was demography his seven-year-old son, J.J., to watch a three-on-three tournament, though, on additional thought, I should absolutely accompany them. 

And so it went. Later, aback we went out for cafeteria in Seattle, Jamal insisted on acrimonious me up at my hotel, but alone afterwards a alternation of texts ambitious to apprentice what affectionate of aliment I liked, alone for me to defer, until we accomplished a stalemate and I had to explain that as affable as he was being, I would apprentice added about him by activity to one of his admired places than by bistro aliment I liked, at which point he assuredly acquiesced—“LOL, I get it now!”—then collection me to Palisade, a seafood atom on the baptize area he takes his wife on appropriate occasions. Afterward Crawford insisted on paying, afresh angled the waitress a sum that acquired her to do a bifold take. “Oh my goodness!” she said. “Thank you!”

At aboriginal I couldn’t advice but admiration if Crawford was putting on a bit of a show. But allegedly this was typical. Aback the Clippers went to China a brace of years back, he slipped $500 in bounded bill and a handwritten acknowledgment agenda beneath the auberge doors of two dozen staffers who fabricated the trip. Read one, to Director of Communications Dennis Rogers: “Thank you for all you do for me and the team. Abundant respect…. Enjoy!!” Says Rogers: “He’s one of the greatest bodies you will anytime meet.”​ Rashaad Powell, a acquaintance and casual antagonist in the Seattle Pro-Am, works as the administrator of acceptance at adjacent Renton High. Already or alert a month, aback he has afflicted kids, he will duke them the buzz afterwards answer why. Crawford will be on the added end, accessible to allocate activity acquaint or action to buy them new shoes if their GPA hits 3.0. Says Will Conroy, an abettor drillmaster at the University of Washington and one of Crawford’s oldest friends, “I don’t anticipate there’s a kid in Seattle who’s been in acquaintance with Jamal who doesn’t accept his buzz number.” 

Crawford and I aboriginal accommodated at KeyArena, aloof arctic of city Seattle, for the aboriginal annular of the playoffs of the BIG3. For Crawford, the afternoon is both a glimpse of the approaching and a alliance of sorts.​ Contemporaries and aloft teammates, like Stephen Jackson, Chauncey Billups, and Charles Oakley​, apprenticed over to pay respects, clasping calmly and all-embracing and allurement what’s good. (Crawford, watching the agreement and abridgement of advice D, announces, “I’m absolutely arena in this in bristles years!”) If there is addition actuality who doesn’t apperceive Crawford, they charge be in hiding.

It can be a bit adamantine to square: the acutely accepted amore for Crawford and his shoot-first game, which doesn’t necessarily scream abundant teammate. “There’s absolutely a absurdity amid how he plays and the affectionate of actuality he is,” is how the GM puts it.​ When Doc Rivers was assassin by the Clippers in 2013, he accepted a amateur who was “surly” or “selfish.” Instead, says Rivers, “it was the exact opposite. I don’t anticipate I’ve met a guy area the aberration is greater amid acumen and reality.” 

Crawford was aloft in the South End of Seattle by three women—his two beforehand sisters and his mom, Venora Skinner—whom he credits for both his acute ancillary and his abysmal ability of the brawl Living Single. Not abundant of a student, he excelled at truancy. Aback he was in eighth grade, his grandmother and his father, Clyde—who breach up with Venora aback Jamal was young—brought him to alive with them in Inglewood, Calif. Clyde had played at Oregon, afresh overseas; he accepted the allurement of the NBA dream.

Still, Crawford connected absence class, and the L.A. gangs so abashed him that he didn’t comedy aerial academy ball. Instead, he affected an busy plan to acknowledgment to Seattle, not because he didn’t adulation his ancestor and grandma—he did; he does—but because he acquainted added adequate there. Knowing they’d disapprove, he active a bittersweet attache in the backyard and abounding it over the advance of weeks (“I had to be sneaky”) so that aback the one-way alike admission his sister bought him accustomed in the mail, he could leave unnoticed. (This adventure is anecdotal in admirable detail here.)

The bold has consistently captivated sway. At two he got his aboriginal basketball, baby and plastic. Afterwards he dribbled everywhere, alone cautiously “holstering” his brawl during class. On its adumbrate he Sharpied Tupac lyrics and mottoes (This brawl is activity to booty me everywhere). He bashed his walls with SLAM pictures, holed up at the library to watch Iverson crossovers on the Internet, patiently cat-and-mouse for the dial-up to load. In L.A. he befriended a aegis bouncer at the Forum and snuck into Lakers games, area he memorized anniversary player’s routines, bottomward to their warmup music (Mary J. Blige’s “Be Happy” for Michael Adams, for example). Aback in Seattle he did the aforementioned at KeyArena for the Sonics. Eventually he got a job ferrying airheaded up to the acknowledgment stands, admitting he wasn’t actual acceptable at it, so connected did he amble by the court. 

Surprisingly little has changed. One of the aboriginal things Crawford asks is who my admired players were growing up. His home appointment currently includes a behemothic Jordan poster, and he says he’s in the action of authoritative “a really, absolutely air-conditioned collage” of some of his idols. At the BIG3 he becomes bemused aloft snapping a account with coaches Julius Erving (“My aboriginal toy bandage was a Dr. J model!”) and Iverson (“He’s the acumen I do what I do”). Conroy describes accepting texts from Crawford at all hours, administering him to accidental highlight videos. Could be Tracy McGrady drives, from aback in the day. Or Manu GinĂ³bili’s Eurosteps. “The guy doesn’t alike watch TV, it’s all basketball on YouTube,” says Conroy. “He’ll argument me at midnight and be like, ‘Man, you got to see these highlights! I’m like, ‘Mal, stop sending me that s--t.”

Follow Crawford on Twitter and you can acquaint aback he’s accomplishing it. For example: 

Sometimes Crawford encounters affiliated spirits. Afterwards his alone division at Michigan he met with Bulls GM Jerry Krause for a predraft interview. On his bank Krause kept a photo of Earl Monroe and Wes Unseld as adolescent players. As Krause afterwards told his peers, he’d had dozens of affairs into his appointment over the years; Crawford was the alone one to admit the pair. On abstract night that June, Krause traded for Crawford, who had been best eighth by the Cavaliers.

And so began his journey. Four seasons with the Bulls, four with the Knicks, a adornment with the Warriors, affiliated by one theme: Crawford scoring a lot on a bad team. Afresh Atlanta (a appropriate aggregation and his aboriginal Sixth Man of the Year trophy), a pitstop in Portland, and finally, about adherence with the Clippers (and two added trophies). Along the way, activity came at him. Aback Crawford was 20, Jordan’s trainer, Tim Grover, called: Michael wants you to assignment out with him. Which blew Crawford’s mind, at atomic until he absent hundreds of bags at dice games. Still, he balled with MJ and “learned about assignment ethic, like absolute assignment ethic.” Later, he played with Penny, and Pippen, and Allan Houston and Grant Hill and so abounding added “true pros.” But he was cocky. Too cocky. He cycled through agents. Crawford harbored All-Star aspirations; the alliance appropriate otherwise. “No one grows up absent to be a sixth man,” he says. “That wasn’t allotment of the deal.”

As he saw it, the best–case book was a leaner, lankier Vinnie Johnson, and Vinnie didn’t get the ceremoniousness or accolades. “I could accept calmly been like, I’m not advancing off the bench. I averaged 20 points,” says Crawford. “And let’s be honest. If you go in as an All-Star to get a contract, you’re apparently activity to get max money. If you’re not, you’ve got to negotiate.”

But, aloft all, Crawford capital to survive. So he reframed his dreams. Became a analgesic off the bench. Acquired into a admired teammate. With the Clippers, Austin Rivers bare encouragement; DeAndre Jordan bare boxy love; Blake Griffin, a perfectionist, bare understanding. He was there for them all. And Chris Paul, well, he appropriate article else. “I’d never been yelled at like that,” Crawford says of advancing to L.A. “The affair with Chris is, aggregate he’s adage is to accomplish the aggregation better. You gotta accept to the message, not his mannerisms. He’s one of the nicest guys in the world, but aback he’s on the court, he’s a ablaze dude. I had to apprentice that.”

As for Crawford? His teammates knew what to expect.

One moment amid many: On Jan. 26, 2007, Crawford and the Knicks were hosting the Heat at Madison Square Garden. Crawford absent his aboriginal four looks, including a dunk. 

And then, well, he can still anamnesis the chronology. A three in advanced of our bench. An and-one. A pull-up midrange. Afresh I got a abduct and a David Lee animation pass. . . . Pretty soon, Crawford had fabricated bristles afterwards shots. Afresh 10. His teammates began agriculture him. “I don’t apperceive area you’re at mentally,” Isiah Thomas, New York’s coach, told him during a timeout. “But wherever you are, breach there.” 

By the time it was over, Crawford had fabricated 16 in a row and denticulate 52 points. Miami brilliant Dwyane Wade told him he’d never apparent annihilation like it. To Crawford it acquainted like, well, what does that feel like?

“Like I could bang it up there and it would go in.”

“Like it doesn’t amount area you are on the court, it doesn’t amount who’s there. You’re aloof like, I’m in ambit and let it go and boom, it’s gone!” 

Like, “You don’t accept to see the basket. There’s no thought.”

It takes a assertive blazon of amateur to cull this off, one who parries any dips in aplomb by cerebration to himself, as Crawford does, What would Iverson do? Or: What would Kobe Bryant do? (Explains Crawford, of cutting one’s way out of a slump, “I would get mad if Kobe was like, ‘I’m not activity to shoot that abundant tonight.’ No, no, no, that’s your gift. The bodies appetite to see you do what you’re activity to do.”)

To Rivers, the key to apprenticeship Crawford lay in acceding freedom. “My affair was, why comedy Jamal if you’re not activity to accord him the ball? That makes no sense.” So he bestowed aloft his assets bouncer a abiding blooming light, assertive that to alike acquaint Crawford he’d taken a bad shot—“and accept me, he took plenty”—would be to abate his effectiveness. 

Of course, this can cut both ways. Abounding a fan has despaired aloft seeing Crawford abandon up an early-in-the-shot-clock three on a night aback he’s not ensconced in the zone. Likewise, Crawford’s abilities don’t necessarily construe to metrics. His career abhorrent appraisement (how abundant his aggregation array aback he’s on the court) may be gaudy, but it’s still worse than his arresting appraisement (how abounding credibility his aggregation allows). But to focus on such stats, Crawford says, is to absence the point. “I’m not a fan of analytics. Aback I was a kid, I couldn’t acquaint you what allotment Allen Iverson shot, or Michael Jordan. Steph Curry is a agglomeration of people’s admired player, but they don’t apperceive what allotment he attempt from the corner, or aloft the breach or whatever. They aloof apperceive how they acquainted aback he hit that attempt and they were activity crazy. That moment area they ran out the abode babble bottomward the neighborhood. That’s what it’s about. The moments and memories.”

To absorb time about Crawford is to believe, at assorted points, that you may accept ample out the abstruse to his alarming agelessness. (“I anticipation you were a kid sitting over there,” Julius Erving said aloft assuredly acquainted Jamal at the BIG3.)

For example, Crawford doesn’t alcohol and says he has never smoked or acclimated drugs. And, added than one division aback he approved to beef up in New York, downing protein all-overs and repping out sets with Stephon Marbury, he’s advised basically the same—175 to 185 pounds—since he entered the league. Afresh again, until about six years ago Crawford hated bubbler water, animate instead on Capri Sun and Gatorade. And such is his adherence to bonbon that amid through his career, he angry his bench kitchen into a aces ’n’ mix, the drawers abounding with Skittles, Starburst, gummies and Red Vines. He works with a trainer best mornings at his abode during the offseason, but it’s annihilation fancy. “The craziest affair about him is that I’ve never apparent him do a dribbling drill,” says Conroy. “Nehhhh-ver. That crossover? It’s instinctual.” Crawford doesn’t see why you should distill about cones aback cones can’t move like defenders. So his basketball workouts abide of cutting followed by auto games. That’s it: Shoot, afresh play. It is the lowest-tech access in the history of avant-garde basketball.

But here’s the thing: Crawford plays a lot. He hoops in the mornings at U-Dub. He hoops at night, in leagues and accessible gyms. He plays with aerial schoolers, he plays with academy players, and, if he happens to drive bottomward your block and you’re hooping, he ability aloof cull over and comedy with you. In fact, added than afterwards an ACL abrasion aback he was 21, Crawford says he’s never gone added than four canicule afterwards playing. “And that’s maybe four days, and alone because my trainer fabricated me.” Aback he vacationed in the Bahamas two years ago with acceptable acquaintance Isaiah Thomas, the Cavs’ point bouncer and adolescent Seattleite, Crawford organized a auto bold with the locals. Aback he got affiliated three years ago to Tori Lucas, his longtime adherent and mother of his three youngest children—he has a 19-year-old son, Eric, from an beforehand relationship—he captivated his available affair in a gym the night afore the bells for his own adaptation of midnight madness. No clubs, no parties, aloof a auto bold with dozens of friends, including Paul, Griffin and LaMarcus Aldridge. Says Crawford, “What abroad would I rather be doing?”

This is what Crawford tells adolescent players now. That he never got sidetracked. Never capital to do movies. Never had any added interests, really. That blockage in adulation with the bold is the best important thing. “I could comedy basketball every day of my life, that’s my passion,” he says at one point. “I’m not adage guys who do added things are wrong, because they’re not wrong, but this was consistently the best important affair to me.”

One of Crawford’s admired sayings is, “Shape has no age.” (Though if appearance did accept an age, Crawford would put himself at “about 31”). As such, he believes he could comedy “for four or bristles added years and afterwards that, who knows, maybe four or bristles more.”

Which brings us to the acumen Crawford chose the T-Wolves. “Let’s say I go to Golden State and I’m aloof addition batten in the wheel,” he says. “And there’s annihilation amiss with that, but they’ve already won a championship, Cleveland’s already won a championship. If I won, I’m not abiding I’d get the aforementioned thrill.” He continues. “If I were at the point in my career area I was in my aftermost year, afresh yeah, Cleveland or Golden State makes all the faculty in the world. But I’m still in it for the hunt and the journey.”

Back at the BIG3, it’s 5:30 p.m., and the final bold is starting. Crawford sneaks out, shooing J.J. in advanced of him. He has a bold to get to.

Crawford aboriginal played in the Seattle Pro-Am aback he was 16. Doug Christie, the Raptors’ cutting bouncer who was active the alliance at the time, arrive him to accompany his team. The aboriginal four games, Crawford almost shot. Afresh Christie angry his ankle; Crawford led the aggregation in scoring and fabricated the All-Star game.

Every summer afterwards that—21 and counting—he’s appear back. In 2006 he took over the alliance and now runs it out of Seattle Pacific University. Admission is free, and Crawford estimates he spends $50,000 of his own money anniversary summer. The aboriginal bold on this night appearance Spencer Hawes and Mason Plumlee, two of dozens of pros Crawford has recruited. “Let’s see,” says Vance Dawson, the agog P.A. announcer, “Paul George blew it up. The band was out the aperture for Zach LaVine. KD could almost get aback to his car.” The account goes on: Bryant, Paul, Griffin, Isaiah Thomas, Nate Robinson: Says Crawford, “Since the Sonics left, this is the alone way for kids about actuality to see NBA talent.”

For abounding Seattle natives—like Thomas and Dejounte Murray—Crawford has been a coach from the time they were in aerial academy (just as Gary Payton already was for him). He plays bottomward his influence, but others don’t. “All those players advancing out of Seattle appropriate now should accord Jamal 5% of their salaries,” says Rivers. “Because afterwards Jamal you can accomplish a case that they wouldn’t be in the NBA.”

After anniversary bold Crawford takes up his position courtside to assurance autographs and affectation for photos. Dave, his associate and de facto aegis man, lets anybody apperceive that Jamal will breach as connected as it takes. “He doesn’t appetite to be the amount you aloof see on TV,” says Powell. “I’ve actually apparent him accord the shoes off his anxiety and airing aback in his socks to his car.” 

Crawford knows what it’s like to be on the added side. “I was that kid,” he says. “I bethink walking up to athletes and I bethink who was air-conditioned and who wasn’t cool.” Payton? Cool. Kemp? Cool. Some others, not so much. “You ability accept the guy’s jersey, you watch all his games, he may accept hit a big attempt and you were like, ‘That happened because I was watching him!’ And afresh you accommodated him and you’re like ‘Ahhh,’ and that kills the accomplished thing.” So Crawford responds to fans, and runs haversack giveaways, and chargeless camps, and speaks at schools; if you appetite Jamal to appearance up at your event, affairs are acceptable he will.

Within a ages he’ll be holed up in a auberge in San Diego, constant Thibodeau’s training camp, which he will account “different, absolute different.” He will alarm Thibodeau, “the Kobe Bryant of coaches as far as assignment ethic” because “he’s activity to advance you to be adequate with actuality uncomfortable.” A ages afterwards he will account 17 credibility and hit a huge last-minute three in Minnesota’s home opener. But for now he’s still in Seattle, in his element. On this night, the semifinals of the playoffs, Crawford starts slowly. Absent shots. Lackluster D. Sixty, maybe 70% effort. But afresh a brace of calls go the added way, and a apostle bodies him, and he gets a bit chippy—O.K., a lot chippy—and now some chump is suggesting he can be shut down. 

Sure, training affected starts soon, and the acute affair would be to beam it off—pace himself—but to advance that Crawford spends alike a nanosecond mired in centralized agitation would be wrong. There will be no acceding to age or acumen tonight. No 60%. He catch for the ball, gets that aerial skip going, and so it begins. Catch, averseness dribble, jumper. Crossover, drive, and-one. “Shut me down!?!?!” he yells, to the contentment of the crowd.

Now the old men are bedlam and kids are whooping and Vance is bellowing, “J Crossover is on fire!” And to be in the gym on this summer night, as Crawford does his thing, is to admit how he agency altered things to altered people. For some, he provides hope—that we don’t stop aggressive because we get old but that we get old because we stop competing, and if we can aloof absorb our joy for the game, conceivably we too can comedy forever, area be damned. For others, he’s the actuality we’d like to anticipate we’d be if we became millionaire NBA stars, affidavit that idols don’t consistently let us down. But, best of all, spinning bottomward the court, aggravating out moves he makes up on the spot, he’s a juking, absonant admonition of why so abounding of us fell in adulation with the game—for those moments, and those memories.
