Kompakt: alle Vorbehalte gegenüber Joe Johnson

Oder wie ein anonymer NBA-Scout den Star der Atlanta Hawks, Joe Johnson, vor dieser Saison einschätzte:

Who is their [Hawks] lead player? Joe Johnson tends to not take the last shot as much as you’d expect from a franchise player. You can tell a lot about him from his decision to go to a losing team by leaving a team that could’ve paid him good money and helped him win a championship. He hasn’t done much in recent years to change that opinion. I’ve watched them play a lot, and he’s a talented kid. But I’m not a fan. He’s a good third player on a contending team. But he’s not the guy you build around.
