Magic Sign Anthony Johnson

Orlando answered their point guard questions by signing Anthony Johnson to a two-year deal. The move effectively ends any chance of resigning Keyon Dooling although the team may still be in the market to add another player -- especially a point guard.

The Orlando Sentinel reports the Magic may resign Adonal Foyle after all as well.

Johnson has made a career in the NBA as a solid backup. He is not a fantastic or outstanding player. Just pleasantly boring.

He is a decent defender and a traditional point guard. He can score a little bit and make some plays. Johnson is definitely a downgrade from Keyon Dooling.

Johnson is not the kind of player who forces action and causes problems on defense like Dooling did. He is more of a traditional facilitator and strong guy.

He is a solid, but cheap option. He is the guy you sign when you are desperate. And Orlando was very desperate for point guard.

This is not a bad signing, but you have to feel the Magic might still take a look at Jason Williams to add some energy off their bench and strengthen the point guard position.
