    You people need to chill, i smell alot of greed on this board. Joe is only on the team, probably because of insurance, or if people get into foul trouble in important games you need vets out there who wont make big mistakes, its not always about scoring. mike is doing him a favor, he could be waiting on the playoffs to contribute more and doesnt want to get hurt.

    But main thing is mike giving him respect for the career he had, he knows he can plug green in there fast, but im assuming he will just lower his mins soon. He just here for maybe a chance at a ring, because the guy never had chance, and was near a superstar in his career, but never really had any help. I wonder why joe should be able to score a bit, he must be completely finished or shocked that hes so wide open sometimes..

    Comparison of Green's stats (before Hou signed Johnson) and Johnson's stats (since signing with Hou)...

    Granted it's a small sample size, but nothing from these stats suggest (to me) that Johnson deserves 100% of Green's PT.
