The Wire Troll: Ramon Sessions Returns to Relevance

Johnson hasn’t necessarily enjoyed the breakout that many anticipated, but you’ve got to love his work in the thefts department. On Thursday, he had four steals, and last week he enjoyed a five-swipe game. Johnson isn’t sinking as many buckets lately and his rebounding has dipped in each of the last three months, but if you need steals, he can help. He’s done a better job of getting to the line this season, and that’s a trend that will have to continue if he’s going to enjoy a real breakout. Johnson likes to tease owners by showing real ability in the supporting stats from time to time, and that makes him difficult to own over the long haul.

He also picked up an assist Thursday, playing 16:24 — his most action in a week.

Blu-ray Review: Downsizing

There are too many half-baked ideas in Downsizing with potentially interesting sub-topics, like the effect of people shrinking cutting away at demand and hurting the economy or whether the small should continue to share the same voting rights, introduced and summarily dropped. Why add the social commentary if you’re going to continually brush it aside?
