Should the Miami Heat’s Johnson duo come off the bench?

During the Miami Heat’s 2017-18 campaign, Tyler Johnson and James Johnson (also known as The Brothers Johnson) picked up 39 and 41 starts respectively (with both also starting all five playoff games played against the Philadelphia 76ers).

However, some are questioning whether or not the duo should continue to be looked at as starting options or if they should be a fixed tandem off the bench.

First, let’s take a look at Tyler Johnson and what he brings to the table.

For starters, while he is a bit undersized at the shooting guard position, with his height and overall build indicating that he’s more of a point guard, his play style shows that he’s indeed best suited at the the two; even if he does leave a little to be desired on the measurables side of things.
