Joe Johnson Coming to Utah

[Thee Jazz Fan]

I don't think your original post said what you think it said.

Your an idiot. It says exactly what I want it to. See your way out'a my bidness

Great addition! Finaly a big name that will play for the Jazz.

Let's let other teams to overpay average players.

I was a bit skeptical about George Hill trade but I'm very glad about this deal.

Jazz are going in the right direction.

Bull **** (cough cough). U were whining and moaning like the rest of the idiots, IDIOT!!!

Good reasonable signing
He used to be an alpha scorer
Reminds me of the Chris Morris signing
Morris at end of career but a piece that got Jazz
to the finals

Ugh!! CHRIS MORIS WAS HORRIBLE!! I remember the Jazz trying to play him as a starter, putting Horny on the bench. That didn't go well. He wasn't a piece of anything that got the Jazz anywhere and he wasn't that old. He'd been in the league only a few years. Maybe 4-5 years before coming to Utah.

When I've watched him the last couple years, he's been good. I thought he defended Lebron as well as anybody when he was with Brooklyn. I don't know if he is that consistent, but when he wanted to be good, he was.

He's absolutely fine-- and he 100% will hold his own in a bench lineup. Guys, bench wings don't need to be Tony Allen on defense. We have 3 other wings who are ****ing legit on defence. It'll be okay. I'm sure he isn't worse than Joe Ingles, who was 100% playable in terms of defence.

Makes you realize what a gem Hayward is when he is the main guy in every style of lineup we can put out

I agree. Hayward is a max player. I think he is a lot better than we give him credit for.

No he started every single game he played last year, both for Heat and Nets. He literally hasnt started a game from the bench in 13 years.

And it wouldn't shock me if he is the starter for us day 1.

I hope it's been mentioned in this thread (there's too much summersaulting for me to read through it all), but it's fair to question how committed Johnson is to WINNING. Don't get me wrong, I like this signing, and I like the terms, but this is a fair question.

Ok, back to summersaulting.

I thought you were a HUGE Johnson fan. Or just a Johnson fan overall? Big ones, small ones, it's all good for you, right?

That's one of the reasons I've never been a big fan, but he went to Miami and immediately made them significantly better. He helped them win. That's good enough for me.

how many losing teams has JJ been on through his career?

I hate to discriminate

Not sure, but last year he elevated the Heat, so he's doing things right. That's what the Jazz need.

The main thing will be how Quin uses his Johnson. Too much and we might see a limp Johnson on the court. Limit usage and we could see a lively and excited Johnson, shooting in amazing spurts.
