This week marks the final edition of our Sixth Man Rankings, and we have a winner.
While major alterations to the list have been made throughout this process, the race ultimately has come down to two players on opposite sides of the country: Los Angeles Clippers guard Jamal Crawford and New York Knicks guard J.R. Smith.
Both players are in their first full season with their teams and both were able to add a bench scoring dimension to which neither team had previously been accustomed.
This East Coast vs. West Coast battle picked up its heaviest bit of steam towards the tail end of the season – and is where our decision became a bit easier.
They don’t do T-shirts in Los Angeles. They do trophies.
