Drive vs. 87ers: Evaluating Stanley Johnson, Henry Ellenson, Michael Gbinije

The Grand Rapids Drive's 106-97 loss to the Delaware 87ers with three Pistons on their team Saturday night was a disappointment, but the game still provided plenty of material for discussion, both good and bad.

It would be seen as a failure if Stanley Johnson did anything but dominate D-League competition, but even held up to those lofty standards, Johnson played pretty well. Being there in person, his physical profile was undoubtedly impressive. Needless to say, you can tell he's the only guy on the floor who could survive being backed down by LeBron James.
