How Good is Amir Johnson?

[DMC]

All Star caliber performance against a Western powerhouse at home with their best player playing solid minutes. Impressive to say the least. Buy or sell?

[lefty]

Well he took advantage of the shitty Lakers Pick and roll D, which left him alone on those offensive rebounds


He will never score 30 pts every night, but he is one of the very few consistent players in Toronto

[HarlemHeat37]

One of the best role players in the league and the Raptors' most important player the past 2 seasons, tbh..

He shouldn't be scoring 30 points against anybody, though:lol..

[Holden_Caulfield]

Prime Carl Landry tbh...

[irishock]

He'd be a key player on a championship team.

[TDMVPDPOY]

better then kobe when it matters

[jesterbobman]

He tends to hang around the top 20 in the league by a bunch of adjusted +/- metrics. Not capable as an anchor of a team, but he is really good as a 2nd big.

Some people in the think tank had wanted the spurs to target him for a while, but that's probably no longer an option(Masai probably trusts stats more than Colangelo)
