He wasn’t a great shooter, he was an okay passer. How was he able to hang around the NBA for so long?
How was Avery Johnson able to last in the NBA from 88 to 04?

Played with a great organization with the Spurs and he could actually play. If you didn't watch Avery play you probably just know him for hitting a few knockdown jumpers. For example the one in the finals. But Avery was quick, could pass, finish at the rim. I mean he was averaging like 13 and 8 with the Spurs.

He was especially effective at getting the ball to his big man.
First David Robinson Then BOTH David and Tim Duncan
Avery called them his Twin Towers.
Perfect PG for the time and system
