| Re: Amir Johnson - Detroit Piston Tracker
Amir Johnson’s minutes are tied to fouls
Excerpted... Quote:
I’d also like to add this: as much as I’d like to see Johnson get more minutes, I just don’t know where they’d come from. Rasheed Wallace, Antonio McDyess and Jason Maxiell are playing very, very well. Plus, those three can play the four and the five, whereas Johnson isn’t strong enough to match up with most centers (not to mention some stronger power forwards).
If this were some kind of computer simulation, I’d just input Johnson for 6-8 minutes a night no matter what, but there’s something to be said for continuity and keeping the guys on the floor in rhythm, which is awfully hard to do when you’re constantly pulling guys off the floor and using a 10- or 11-man rotation.
