arhawkfan Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 How come when Joe has 2 or 3 bad games people come on here and bash him but when he plays like he has been playing nothing is said? Also it looks like he has found his stroke from 3 over the last 4 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benhillboy Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 I'm an equal oppurtunity Joe basher. There are many better alternatives to his shake-and-bake, fade-away game while guys are standing around. Yeah he was on, but every scoring possession is not a good one, especially when we are clearly at our best when the ball moves. He passed up an easy drive oppurtunity for a missed fade-away from the corner last night. Doesn't get to the line nearly enough for the big boy dolars. Shall I continue?

He got three easy layups/dunks yesterday on great defense and great off the ball movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzard Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 When you are asking for the amount of money he is asking for its expected . "With much power comes much responsibility " Exactly...no one gives Kobe a game ball for just scoring 25 to 30. When JJ plays to his average, its expected not hyped. We all know we need him; but good play is always expected out of your best player. You may see that as being taken for granted; I see it as the ultimate compliment.

Also it looks like he has found his stroke from 3 over the last 4 games. Because deep down, they don't like Joe Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators macdaddy Posted December 18, 2009 Moderators Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 You can point out flaws all day long but the guy is an all star and he plays hard and carries this team a lot. Every team has a focal point, and while our other guys are looking good this year, if you take away Joe then the other guys are struggling to score. Without Joe the other team doesn't have anyone they really fear on offense. Everyteam has one and its a huge load to carry. Everyone points to the Pistons championship as a team without a star but that's not true. Their's was Chauncey. The compliments were just very good players in their own right much like the Hawks, but Rip, Prince, Smoove, Horford even Sheed and Bibby aren't offensive centerpieces.

I agree but you have some idiots on here who bash the guy everytime he has a bad shooting game.
