Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 5132536, member: 1414"] Johnson is a better defender. He alters shots. I was amazed in chat the other day where he tips a pass, controls it, starts a fats break. Then he altered another shot and I think dunked at the other end. Ball comes back and he plays near perfect defense and is called for an imaginary foul that replays showed did not happen. Fans on chat: what a bum, all he does is foul. He can be better player. His hands are poor. Reed has great hands but is slow adjusting to guys attacking the rim with pace. He’s fine if we face a slow, back to the basket big, but those are rare. Reed is phenomenal on the boards, I wish SJ was. Combine them and we’d have a great player. Until then we need to mix and match based on matchups and what the team needs. But Johnson is a better hedge defender and better shot blocker. Better against cutters. He does get backed down but few guys can even do that. [/QUOTE]
