He was the sixth overall pick in the 2000 draft but appeared to be a bust until late last season. Johnson sees himself as a guard and will get time at both positions. He must improve his decision-making, shot selection, strength and focus. Too often, his mind wanders, and he takes bad shots and forces passes. He has yet to grow into his 6-9 frame, which means he gets bullied when trying to defend the likes of Tracy McGrady and Jamal Mashburn. " When Ratliff rests, Mohammed will be one of the best backups in the league. The undersized Mohammed (6-10, 250) received a trial by fire in the pivot last season, but he played in all 82 games despite wearing down at times, and he is a solid defensive presence. Grade: B+ " Solid defensive presence....lol Is Bunn the same guy that also made all these remarks about Dermarrs weight a while back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
