Cup of Joe. All Hail King Amir

While the 'resurrection' of Jared Sullinger - at least for one night - might steal all the headlines this morning, sometimes confirmation of expectations can be the best thing. Amir Johnson came advertised as the type of player that teammates and fanbases fall in love with.

After a single night in Green, it's easy to see why. Johnson is a super role player, a chemist, the ultimate team player. Whatever you'd like to call a guy who knows what he's support to do on the court, and can ball. Accumulating 15 points (1 for 2 from distance), 7 rebounds, 2 blocks, and an assist in just 20 minutes.
