I like the thought on Johnson, but he has not looked good since he was drafted. Looking at his 4th team in 3 seasons (if he gets picked up). Lots of better options.

If you want a guy whose only skill is jumping really really high, then just sign Hamidou Diallo. He at least has some GPII potential.

Johnson is 2 way eligible, Diallo isn't.

I repped for my guy AJ Green all offseason saying he needed a spot in the rotation. Glad to see many coming around.

I envision a scenario where you play AJG with Dame, Giannis, a wing defender, and a big, and he absolutely torches teams for helping on Dame/Giannis or Giannis/ Dame pick and rolls.

Sure, if he's in there with Giannis/Dame and 2 others. But if he's in there with Giannis/Dame/Khris and Lopez he's not getting many shots.




The way teams are helping off Beasley, a good shooter, I think there will be plenty of shots available for the SG, but I don't want to defend with a Dame/Khris/AJG perimeter.


I’d rather defend with that perimeter than Dame/Midds/Beasily. Beasily is that bad that AJ Greem could be better than him.

He’s probably a better shooter than Ray…

Would not mind Robinson-Earl on a 2 way.
Dealing with people who exhibit the "smartest person in the room" syndrome can be a challenge. One approach is to listen their opinion while also encouraging open-mindedness. It's important to create an environment where all voices are valued.

Don't think he's eligible. I'd waive Livingston for him.

I'm biased but I think he's incredibly serviceable. Smart, versatile, skilled. If he can be had on a 2-way sign me the **** up.

Eh, he’s small, not a rim protector, not a good shooter, not that athletic. Good IQ but

JRE has t-rex arms. Unless you're a special kind of offensive player, that's a death sentence for me if you're a big. No thanks.

I think being really smart helps make up for it a bit. You wouldn't even take him on a 2-way?
