One game. That’s all it took for Joe Johnson to realize he wants to retire with the Miami Heat. I guess handing out beatdowns at the expense of the New York Knicks will have that effect on you. From Ohm Youngmisuk over at ESPN.com: Joe Johnson said he chose to sign with the Miami Heat [...]

Joe Johnson and Jarrett Jack are not untouchable. Go figure. Trade rumors are an occupational hazard in the NBA.
