I've watched all the Hawks games this postseason,and he has been playing horrible all playoffs. His stock in free agency is probably going to get hurt by this

he's purposely tanking to leave the Hawks, just like what LeBron is doing.

Elite by whose standards? Never saw the guy as a legit second option. He'd be a hella third one though.

I never understood the hype over this guy, one of the most overrated players in the NBA, imho.

Horford and Smith are the only two players on the Hawks you could consider as top NBA talent.

He's not elite but he's one of the better perimeter players available this summer after the big names like James and Wade.

He's currently playing a role that is too big for him. Hawks offense consists of a lot of Iso-Joes and he's really not that good.

Not elite, but he's still a very good player. And he doesn't disappear in the playoffs at all. He's not having a great series against Orlando but he's had huge games in the playoffs before, particularly a couple years ago against Boston.

He's still a top 5 shooting guard in the league. He's just not a superstar player. With a really good big man, he'd make a pretty good second option. He'd be a really good third option. But he's capable of being a solid second option imo.

He's a Ray Allen type player. A good third option on a good team.

Pretty much this. I'd rank Joe Johnson high on the chart of stars, but I don't think he cracks superstar status.
