I just got home and saw that dunk Johnson threw down on what looked to be former Viper Tim Olbrecht (?). Good God, that was nasty.
They don't care about having correct stats in the Summer League. Preseason, Reg. Season will be a different story. It looked like he had more than 3 assists to me as well.
ANOTHER 2nd Round STEAL by Morey. DM appears to have struck gold with Nick. I hope he continues his good play.
I'm very high on Nick Johnson and I do expect him to be a steal. Seems a bit early to proclaim him one though. Not saying he won't be... I'm pretty damn sure he will. Just a bit early to call it official after a nice Summer League game.
Besides his handles, I was most impressed with his ability to hang with very talented guards (Siva and KCP) at BOTH spots. He's got the makings of a fantastic complimentary guard
Serious question, since we declined the option on Daniels, does this make him expandable? I don't mind seeing Johnson at the two since he is a two way player --- he can shoot the three and defend. Not bad for someone coming off the bench.
If Nick Johnson continues to impress and make a name of himself in the summer league, he may already be an additional valuable trade asset to add to a Kevin Love package. I mean, we saw Sam Presti fall in love with Jeremy Lamb in our SL and he probably hoped he was the star piece among the assets received in the Harden trade. Oops!
