Joe Johnson: Underrated Much?

joejohnson

Can Joe Johnson please get some love? There is no one in the NBA that gets the superstar snub more than Joe Johnson. Dude is a legit Franchise building piece.

The dude has been to three straight all star games after signing the huge contract with the Atlanta Hawks. Did anyone notice that the Suns have never been the same since losing Johnson? Everyone has a top 3 players; Kobe, Wade, Lebron then there is that second tier headed by CP3 and Howard, everyone wants to throw Brandon Roy and Deron Williams in the mix, can we please not skip over Joe Johnson and get him in the second tier. He has carried his team to 4th in the Eastern Conference and is the 4th best player in the East, Wade, Lebron, Howard and then it’s gotta be JJ.

God damn lets get some love for #2. Also read my DWADE blog and you know I am right no comments needed on this topic.

  • Run for the Shameful Eastern Conference 8 Seed

    eastern

    With about 18-20 games left in the NBA season It’s officially now time to start discussing the playoffs!!! The main thing I’m worried about is in all likelihood the eight seed in the east that my Bucks are desperately limping to try to lock down. With all the injuries and new regime changes the bucks have done surprisingly well!! Let’s start the discussion with the East playoff picture, here’s what the eastern conference standings look like today:

    1. Cleveland 48-12
    2. Boston 48-14
    3. Orlando 46-16
    4. Atlanta 34-27
    5. Miami 32-28
    6. Detroit 30-29
    7. Philadelphia 29-30
    8. Milwaukee 29-35
    9. Chicago 28-34
    10. New Jersey 27-34
    11. Charlotte 26-35
    12. Indiana 27-37
    13. New York 25-35

    SO after looking at the standings who’s your pick to be the eight seed or maybe you think Detroit or Philly will fall and that two of the teams on the outside will get in?? Who will lock up home court advantage all the way through?? And who will get the more coveted 4 seed instead of 5??

    I personally think Detroit and Philadelphia hold on and that Milwaukee gets the 8. Cleveland is strong and adding Joe Smith is going to dampen the loss of Big Ben, they will hold the one seed starting with their win over Boston tonight. And I know this will fire Kittels up a bit but I’m holding the Heat at five and then having to play on the road more come playoff time (and we all know that’s certain doom for eastern conference teams).

  • Dwade, Most Underrated Superstar in NBA?

    dwade

    Whenever I hear anyone talk about the best players in the NBA, only 2 names come to peoples minds; Its either Lebron or Kobe every single time. Explain to me how that is possible? What has Lebron accomplished? Dwade has a championship and a finals MVP, Lebron hasn’t been to a finals to date. Yea Kobe has three wins but look at the talent Kobe had in his championships. I’m not saying that DWADE is hands down the best player, I just feel he needs to be in the discussion no matter what. Look at this year alone Kobe has Gasol and Odom two superstars and Lebron has Mo Williams and Big Z, then we take a look at what Wade has been given this season, a rookie point guard in super mario and a pathetic excuse of a big man in Jermaine O’neal. Look where the Heat are, 4th in the east! I will be willing to bet my paycheck that neither Kobe or LBJ would have the Heat nearly as good as they are this season.

    When talking about MVP shouldn’t leading scorer be able to throw his hat in the mix, while according to everyone DWADE isn’t in the top 4 MVP candidates this season,  that is a joke!
