he really does. he's the type of player the spurs would pickup out of nowhere, would start to ball and everybody would be saying "where the hell did they get this guy?"

I like TJ cuz he shows no fear, he doesn't get bullied, he's a HELL of an athlete, has a decent looking stroke and more or less should be able to do all the scrappy, little things you need for about 10 minutes a game.

If his 3 point shot comes on, dude can be a very good role player in this league for 10 more years.

I like nappier and ennis, but would much rather keep TJ. he's just a gamer man.

Heat close Orlando summer league 5-0; jaw surgery for Johnson

Johnson surgery

Tyler Johnson underwent dental surgery Friday and was spared having to have his jaw wired. Instead a plate was inserted that will allow him to continue eating solid food. He has been ruled out for the balance of summer league.

Following his surgery, Johnson posted to Twitter, "Appreciate all the love and support. Surgery went well. Should be back on the court in no time. Young guys out there ballin' today. #5.0."

Johnson was appearing in his third summer-league game when he was injured on a screen set at midcourt, losing a tooth on the play.

"I thought he had a great couple of games prior to the injury," Craig said, with Johnson's offseason dedicated to working at point guard.

All the best TJ.

And ignore the fools here who want you gone. You have the heart of a UD and already more NBA skill than Shabazz.
I remember when the Dolphins were perennial contenders

I like his potential as a backup utility player who can 3&D. He's not a natural point but if he could become a bit more reliable behind the arc he could be a valuable role player
