Iso Joe Johnson on being asked to play 1v1. “Don’t come at me with this piss poor offer”

[42 Monks]

Joe dont need the money...gotta make it worth his while

its just basketball this is not a freestyle battle or belt unification bout

5 on 5 doesn't necessarily translate to 1v1 (or vice versa), no more so than being a top scorer in 5 on 5 means you could beat a worse player at your position in knockout or horse. So Iso Joe vs Beas would probably be a toss up but since Joe was the more successful professional and is seen in higher regard than Beas, i guess he's not gonna put that reputation on the line unless the money is right.

100K for a 1V1 of scoring 10 points is worth his while.

How much did George The Messiah charge?

He just got whooped up

 

[The God Poster]

He can become a coach or damn near own a team

Comments like these tell us who the hoopers are

I don't know why y'all focusing on the actual amount and not looking at it in relation to what Beas and Lance put up. In theory, if they both played for 20k, Joe would then be playing for 5x the amount and I don't think he'd have the same reservations about coming to the table then.

It's all about the principle of what he's worth. He don't wanna be playing for the same chips as the "undercard".

I mean there's the 100k then you could make money off the pay per view streaming.

Joe should if he get a decent offer do it for the culture In order to create avenues for hoopers to still make money. You can't make it a ridiculous amount every time

Beasley doesn't play defense and Iso is hitting those open jumpers that Lance had. I think Joe wins pretty easy.

I like this guy's character. Took the L, took it as a lesson, then went and paid up on the chopped cheeses.

Damn I miss chopped cheese

 

[DonRe]

I dont think Joe with all that prison ball shyt Beas be with.

Im still unsure whats more entertaining. A 1v1 with straight finesse play or with that hard fouling shyt. Straight bully ball.

The only thing is they all can shoot. Its nothing for them to make 20 straight shots from the elbow

He was getting paid to do that for most of his life. Doesn't matter if everyone else does it for free, from his POV it's a service he gets paid to do.

It's like asking a rapper for a free verse just because they can freestyle, yea they may freestyle all the time for free, but that's on their time, not yours, just because you wanna see them do it doesn't mean you can just devalue them like that.

And no it's not the same as a rapper freestyling on a radio show, that is a paid promotion for them to market themselves...

This is exactly why one on one don't mean shyt.
