    We just need a decent veteran PG..I have nothing against Teague..it's good to have developmental players..but having two slow shooters (albeit very good shooters) in the game at the same time is like having me running "showtime".

    isn't that what we have right now? if they can't guard the perimeter forget about it.

  6. Johnson says he can be an ELITE player in the NBA

    That's a tough question. The first thing that comes to my mind is that he said that when he first came to Atlanta. I feel like Joe Johnson has been around for awhile in this league, and as good as he is, I think he's reached his celling.

    When I think of Joe Johnson, I think of Brandon Roy... he's the most joe-like player in the league to me. I can definitely see Roy becoming an elite player. I think joe will always have to take a back seat to somebody better. (Pippen anybody?)

    Pippen wasn't elite? :( Didn't he lead the Bulls to the Conference Finals (sans MJ)? Only time I'd agree with that is if we're talking Rockets, Blazers, and the Chi return.

    Other than that, I get what you're saying though ... IMO Joe's not aggressive enough to reach that elite tier. Not consistently anyways... be great if he was.

  7. Josh revisited

    no offense Sillent but I think you give Josh a bit too much credit. If Josh was who you see him as... he'd be easily an all-star. Not that he doesn't have potential to be but some of that stuff he just can't do. Guarding guards is one of those. There's nothing wrong with that, but thats more reason why he's a PF.

  8. J Smoove a Top 50 NBA Player?

    I'm not the biggest Lebron fan but...

    I feel like you're insulting Lebron with that comparison. He didn't just have better handles and passing... he understands how to play basketball. You can see that if he wasn't 260 or w/e he is, and have the athleticism, he'd probably still be a decent player. Josh (from the very few games I get to see...) just doesn't have that same level of understanding. Take away Josh's freak athleticism and what do you have?
