FLAGSTAFF - Those who were at the Suns practice court a couple of
weeks ago still are buzzing about the show that second-year guard Joe

"Unbelievable."

But Johnson has left teammates and observers shaking their heads

Johnson.

Johnson scored 23 points and grabbed 11 rebounds that night in Chicago.
