ohnson didn't have an opening statement so much as a sustained one. He moved the curve by inches in the first quarter — a clean look here, a contested stop there — and let the game come to him.
The first quarter is where it broke open — johnson tip layup shot (2 pts) (+3.2). From that possession on, the curve never had to be rebuilt the same way twice.
The fourth was control. Johnson closed at -0.1 without needing a final flourish to get there.
