he wasn't invited to the USA team camp but decided to play in the Vagas game tonight. Why risk injury by playing in a game you weren't even invited to play.

Why practice when you could get hurt?

 He's doing basketball. That's who he is, a basketball player.

I know he doesn't look like it but I'm sure Amir Johnson likes to have fun just as much as anyone else.

You can't get better if you don't practice. All players do it. Remember when just about the entire C's team when out to LA for a week and played over the summer.

Jordan had guys come out during his Space Jam shoot and played pick up games.

People worry too much about injuries. If it's going to happen it's going to happen. Guy's could roll and ankle walking on the side walk. Tear an ACL just jogging or going up the stairs. They could get hurt first day of training camp, what are they not suppose to do that too?

It's not like he's wrestling, or ufc fighting, or running from the bulls, he's doing what he's suppose to be doing.

He's playing with the top players in the nba. If Marcus wasn't injured he'd be in Michael Carter-Williams spot. Were you confused if he was on the team or insulting Johnson?

would have loved to see Marcus out there playing a little bit of defense..the best part of the scrimmage was when Michael Carter and Vitor started going at it a little it was because there was like a little of defense not a whole lot but an effort to get in front of the opposing player.

Yeah, this is such a non-story.  This is no different than playing a pick-up game as others have said.  And unless you want players to stop doing that, there's no room to complain here.
