    Another mistake by Morey. Nick should've got a 4-5 year deal.

    You don't think people would get tired of the same Johnson for that long?

    The Rocket's youthful Johnson will gladly rise to the occasion, punishing holes left open from collapsed defenses. :p

    They don't call it the D league for no reason.

    I am sure they will play around with Johnson in the rotation, but he will find his place and settle in to fill a needed hole.

    Is it just me, or does Johnson look bigger since he got a haircut?

    Hope MilkHair doesn't choke Johnson's output with his coaching innuendos.

    I'm sure no second round pick will agree to anything longer than 3 years with Morey after seeing Parsons' experience.

    I see Johnson's uprising being in the D-League, Til one of our guys goes down and we will play around with Johnson in the backcourt rotation. I'm sure a harden-Johnson backcourt would be tough to bring down

    When I have to deal with a Harden-Johnson backcourt, I flip them into my wastband.
