    He's left handed right,,,second rounder, defensive, short for SG, with some athleticism and range

    Cuttino Mobley

    Btw. When was this game played? Aren't they in Vegas now? Sorry I'm on vacation in the Colorado mountains. Didn't realize they played Orlando, too

    Impressive. He seems to be everywhere the ball is. Very aware.

    I thought he already signed his rookie contract sometime after the draft.

    He's right handed. Makes that summer league monster dunk even more impressive huh?

    Based in what? Cuttino actually started as an NBA PG as a rookie with Dream, Barkley and #33. I wouldn't say Johnson has any proof of making the switch from small SG to PG that Cat did.

    Like Cat, he's a small SG until proven otherwise.

    And I contend if Rudy needed Cat to continue to be a PG, he would have groomed him to be at least as good as Kenny. Cat did whatever Rudy told him to do

    There are some strange comparisons being made to Johnson and other Rockets: Artest? Cuttino is not a bad comparison.

    Do you have a source for this? I don't believe this is true. Nick doesn't have a contract yet.

    Artest is not someone I'd compare him to at all.

    He's right handed, so that's one way he isn't like cat...and cat being point with 3 hall of famers isn't saying much. Motiejunas could have ran point with those guys. I wouldn't say he made the switch successfully, otherwise he would have become a full time pg the rest of his career, but he didn't. I think nick actually has a shot of making the full time switch. Just watch him handle the ball and make passes, already acts and looks like a pg..
