https://youtu.be/ZgklwduRKnE Last season, Stanley Johnson played sparingly for the Raptors. Up until the final game of the season, his highest point total was just seven points. Then, he dropped 23 in the regular season finale when the Raptors were presumably locked into their playoff seed. I made a highlight video where I expressed surprise at…

Stanley Johnson 23 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (8/14/2020)
Stanley Johnson resurrected himself from the dead (actually the very end of the Raptors bench – but being dead is basically the same thing) in the game before this with a “game-winner” against the Philly Cheesesteaks. I put “game-winner” in quotes because there were still five seconds left in the game at the time he…

After starting his Pelicans career off disastrously, Stanley Johnson has picked it up a little bit. Remember, we’re talking about offense here. Defense, schmefense. He’s probably still good on that side of the ball, just like he’s always been, but do I care? No. Do I have any way of caring? No. Not until the…

You already know this, especially if you’re a Pelicans fan, but Stanley Johnson has been BAD on the offensive end in New Orleans, way below even his very low standards. He scored 6 in his debut with them, which was his high before this game. He had two other games where he made more than…

You know your team is desperate for you to play well when nearly every play you make in a game is rewarded with one or multiple replays of the play in the broadcast. I’ve noticed this trend before, but it’s painfully apparent in this one: basically every time Stanley Johnson scored the ball, we got…

It’s taken a while, three long years of patience from Pistons fans, but Stanley Johnson is finally turning into a not-horrible offensive player. After tonight’s performance, he’s crawled over the 40 percent mark for field goal shooting on a season, something he has never done before. At least, something he has never done before as…

Your old pal DTB is currently in a difficult situation. On one hand, I love seeing the Warriors lose. I love observing the online communities on which they congregate go up in flames whenever things don’t go their way. Then Curry retires in a decade, the dynasty is broken up once and for all, and…

What’s the deal with the severe lack of Johnsons in the NBA right now? It’s basically the most second common surname in America (the first is Muhammad, read a book for once), and it has a storied history of premiere NBA players bearing it. Kevin Johnson (well, he used to be respected), Marques Johnson (gonna…

Can I call Stanley Johnson a bust yet? He’s still “only” 22 years old, I know, but has he gotten better at anything during his four years in the NBA? Is there one area of the game that you can point to and say “he’s definitely better at that then when he came into the…

I feel like, every time in the past that I have had harsh words for Stanley Johnson (specifically for his lack of production on offense), there’s at least one or two Stanley Johnson apologists who would enter the comment section of the video and tell me that he’s actually secretly really good and important to…
