    Amir Johnson. He sets monster screens. Saw a stat somewhere that Lowry's TS% drops 10% when Johnson is off the court. Wish we could have him sit down with Dwight and show him how its done.

    Liked him too. I guess it's because he looked like an average joe you could bump into at anytime.

    Still remember this shot:

    I was screaming like mad.

    I like Amir Johnson too. He's slender but doesn't get pushed around too much. I was considering writing about him then I looked up his stats and wasn't really impressed. Someone that athletic should be a better rebounder.

    I suppose it is how you define role player.

    I personally like:

    Jodie Meeks
    Taj Gibson
    PJ Tucker
    JJ Reddick
    Khris Middleton
