MICHIGAN IN THE PROS man," he told The Los Angeles Times. "I've always prided myself on being professional, no matter what's going on. I think this stuff honestly affects my family more, and that's the part that bothers me. "I understand that it's a business and stuff happens, but my son is in school and he wouldn't understand if I took him out of school and go wherever. So that's the part that bothers me." Crawford celebrated by scoring a team-high 26 points on 8-of-15 shoot- ing Feb. 19, making five triples in a 119-115 win over the Spurs, and the fans roared their approval. "They were so supportive," Craw- ford said. "I saw probably 90 per- cent of them saying they didn't want me to go, and tweeting at L.A. Clip- pers, making sure they saw it too. It's humbling. It shows that your work doesn't go unnoticed." Crawford told The Times he didn't expect to be out long. "It's a slow process," he said. "It's just a day-by-day thing, so hopefully each day it just gets a little bit better."
