Re: Amir Johnson - Detroit Piston Tracker

You know, what's funny is that Amir ended up averaging more points than Delfino and Maxiell, more boards than those two and Nazir, and #1 on the team in blocked shots and shooting percentage.

Re: Amir Johnson - Detroit Piston Tracker

We should've brought him back a few weeks ago IMO.

Re: Amir Johnson - Detroit Piston Tracker

Looking at the year he's had, it was probably the best to send him down right away and then bring him back with 20-25 games to play so that he can show what he's learned and get some real experience. Flip is still not inclined to play young guys for longer periods of time, especially when they are going good. He's always bringing in starters to close out the 2nd quarter, and really sporadic bringing in subs in the 2nd halves of the games. Why is that? I don't know, I guess that's why he's a coach and I'm just sitting here guessing.

Anyway, could've, should've, would've... They all don't help us now. I just hope they give Amir enough playing time and hope that he is the player everyone is thinking he should become.

Re: Amir Johnson - Detroit Piston Tracker

He played a lot, learned a lot, showed character in a situation many would have bailed from and played with new assurance upon returning.

That's not a result sane people should second-guess.

Smile Re: Amir Johnson - Detroit Piston Tracker

The fact that he made the 12 man roster was a foregone conclusion. They only had 15 players under contract, so clearly he had to be one of them.

The question is will he make the active 12 man roster for any of the games?

Re: Amir Johnson - Detroit Piston Tracker

I wonder if the Pistons can call up any of the Sioux Falls Skyleaders if anyone on the Automotion gets injured or is not performing...
