Stanley Johnson, who is one of the worst offensive players in the league, just destroyed LeBron James and the Cavaliers on national TV, scoring a career-high 26 points, replacing the recently traded Tobias Harris. I think it is officially time for the Cavaliers to blow it up. I don’t see how they can recover from this. To repeat: they let STANLEY JOHNSON, who normally has a difficult time attempting to direct the ball into the basket, score almost at will on them, embarrassing them with the whole country watching.
I bet they can get a couple first-round picks for LeBron. The Bucks propose a couple first-round picks and Thon Maker for LeBron. Final offer.
This is the second time Stanley has done this. “This” being “score a career-high on national TV, fooling everybody into thinking you’re some kind of good offensive player”. That sucks for me, because what I really want is to hear how George Blaha was reacting to him dominating Queen James. These “Player’s Night” guys suck. Give me turn-and-guns, running-guns, guns off the high-glass. Damn it. I bet Blaha said “fires it up and fills it up” so many times.
If history is anything to go by, this probably doesn’t represent any sort of a turning point in Stanley’s career. He needs do this, or at least stuff somewhat resembling this, a bunch more times in the coming weeks before I will be convinced.
