Cmon man. On our team, hit the shots. I dont care if JJ does a sick move to attempt a shot, did he make it?
Joe got GG 3 shots by simply passing from the post, LOL Joe even gave GG a pass while GG was in the post that he would have never received from CP or Harden.
True, he always brings the energy, but boy does he do some dumb stuff out there. His basketball IQ is unquestionably low.
At the end of the day, I am extremely happy that we have both Joe Johnson and Gerald Green. I'd like to see them play together in blowouts so we can rest Paul/Harden.
JJ passed the ball well, facilitated, made some buckets off the dribble and closed out fairly well on defense BUT I know they weren't high slamming 3s and Joe Johnson isn't from Houston, so everything Joe Johnson did well gets ignored.
I really like Joe's inside out game. It's a great change of play style compare to both CP3 AND Harden. For that rwason alone, I do think Joe deserves minutes over Green.
Debatable. Joe was essentially used as a star for the Jazz, getting post-ups every single time down in the 4th quarter, and flashing some Kobe-ish abilities against a top flight defense. Gerald Green was used for 10 minutes of energy. Very different scenarios for each player. Nice to have both.
I agree, unless he is taking bad shots and keeping Chris Paul/Eric Gordon from getting off, which is what I suspect D'Antoni is thinking.
all the jazz did was beat a depleted clippers team in the first round. joe johnson was horrible against the warriors. it's nice to have both but sucks when only 1 gets to play no matter what.
I hate how we always try to make this an either or situation. We don't have to pit them against one another. JJ was out there with GG and they played great off of one another. Joe brings something completely different than what GG can give us.
d'antoni is the one making this an either or situation. he showed that in the toronto game when they could've used something and he kept him glued to the bench.
Lol. This reminds me of the TJones or Dmo argument.... when the answer was really neither years later.
