That's the thing though, I thought he mis-dribbled too til I got home and saw the replay in HD, dude had that ball on a string toyin with that nikka

It's been rough week for Paul, but he'll live...he'll live to fight another day :to:

Nah, there was definitely a slight misdribble. Real subtle, but it actually worked in his favor...it made Pierce think he could snatch it. But JJ recovered with one touch and he was gone...while Pierce was :dead:

I thought it was a mis-dribble but damn Pierce was too aggressive I guess :to: He can still put up 30 any given night so I'm not too concerned.

At least he's not out on that matador D like some other dudes though :youngsabo:

Ive always like Joe Johnson.

  • Good enough handles to play PG for part of the game
  • Darn Good range
  • Good post up scorer
  • Good distributor
  • Good defender

What else can you ask from a starting SG? Notice i said Good and not Great.

And forget the money. It's not his fault his agent is gangsta :win: and the Hawks have no negotiating skills. :laff:

His biggest weakness is his tendency to disappear in big games when he's the #1 option. I think D-Will can bring him up to par.

as a hawks fan, i feel it's my duty to tell you that your checklist about JJ is almost entirely wrong

there is no way in hell he could play PG, or more accurately...there is no way in hell anyone would WANT him playing PG

he is not a good distributor

he is a mediocre defender, he's got the size and speed but he's just lazy on that side of the ball

he is a good scorer though :ld:

15ppg on 14fga is good scoring?:huhldup:

Since you're a Hawks fan and had to deal with this nikka for a few years, i feel for you... but Joe Johnson is a bum, period.

:manny: his numbers have dropped the past couple years, but just 2 years ago he avg'd 21ppg...he's still capable of doing numbers like that, but we all know that isn't happening...especially now that he doesnt have full control of the offense in BK like he did with us

he's not a bum, but he is not a superstar like some people make him out to be...in his prime there could have been an argument for him, but he's essentially been a glorified roleplayer the past few years
