Well, I'm not saying that's not a need at all, but I don't think it's quite as important as some do, personally. And really, what was Johnson going to do from the bench? Maybe they were blowing sun up our rears and trying to make him feel important, or maybe they really thought he had a chance of earning a rotation spot and thought he'd have a toughness impact. Either way, once it became clear he was hurting the team when he played and almost certainly wouldn't be in the top 8 rotation, any possibility of him providing toughness kind of flew out the window.
