LaVar 108 Report post Posted April 18, 2015 Johnson is 6'5 240 and couldn't finish at the rim against college players. That worries me. Also he may return to Arizona because he wants to be a top draft pick and he's probably going in the 6-12 range this year. he is 6'8" 243. he also was in the top if not the top and shooting off the dribble. He is a very good shooter for spacing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaVar 108 Report post Posted April 18, 2015 Winslow that low is funny to me. And if we take Willie at 5 I will be severely disappointed. Guy has no upside and projects to be Chris Anderson, which is fine, but not at 5. The big board for me is the magic ranking for best player for team. It is not the order of teams selecting. I dont think we would want winslow with our core talent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok so he's even bigger than I said. A 6'8 240 guy should be finishing at the rim against guys who aren't even going to make it to the league and he wasn't.

He is also very quick and fast, he reminds me of tyon chandler or marcus camby. bigs develop slower than smalls so he can still improve. Look at dedmon.

This he excels at now. If he becomes more, great. He is only 18 now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He doesn't really even fit in the lineup he does fit the line up. we need a shot blocker and defender next to vuch. vuch mcs harris vic payton I prefer Mario and starting gordon.

LaVar 108 Report post Posted April 18, 2015 Who said anything about creating? Also Winslow is a better 3 point shooter than Johnson. Normally when your finishing in traffic at the wing it comes from creating a shot. Johnson will have open shots to shoot from vic and payton attacking. He has a better percentage but his form is not good. I dont trust the sample size. johnson is 4th in catch and shoots. Johnson is also 2nd in jumpers off the bounce in pick and roll. I really like Johnson's size and quick release. He is as talented to me and is a better overall fit. I am not fond of a 6'6 sf. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he becomes more, great. He is only 18 now. You're making him out to be a shooter with range that will create spacing for our team, but at the moment he's not that guy at all really. Can he shoot off the dribble? Sure. Is a floor spreader with range out to the NBA 3pt line? Not from what I've seen and definitely not more so than Winslow who hit clutch 3's on more than one occasion on the biggest stage in college basketball.

I'd recommend waiting for the official combine measurements before leaning a certain way over an inch or two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It has nothing to do with creating a shot. Even the 5th option on the team needs to be able to drive in a straight line and finish at the rim. You don't trust the sample size? Winslow took almost the exact same number of 3s as Johnson did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
