3-8 SU since getting Iverson.

And you wonder why Philly was so happy to get rid of him. You will never win with this dude.

The Western Conference Playoffs will be probably one of the best ever this year.

AI fans will say the 3-8 SU is a Carmelo reason, but the ATS is worse...i



Iverson is an awful team player...

New Years' Eve vs. Dallas (without Dirk), Nuggets lost SU.

His first game he went against Salmons and the Kings, a player he shut off on the 76ers last year (he's the only one who gently mentioned how selfish AI is) and Salmons had a triple-double in another Nugget loss.

Iverson's still going to make the All-Star team on rep alone.

Denver had to dump Boykins a fan favorite, because they are too small.

I would take Boykins anyday although he is a liability against guards that can shoot over the top (which is rare these days anyway).

Also, now I know why the rest of the country is enamored with this dude.

It's simply Sports Center.

After not being able to watch him every game, you only see the clips of his game on SC and the way they edit the highlights, they show Iverson's 5 great shots per game and all you see is this little dude maneuvering his way around all these monsters which makes you think "damn how did he do that". However, they never show you the 15 jacked up shots on 1 on 4 fast breaks, and the 7 turnovers when he dribbles the ball for 20 seconds, and is trying to find someone open with 3 seconds left on the shot clock.

.. and that ridiculous 'Steals' stat. Always lunging where the pass may go, leaving his man open.


Of course he gets steals more often, because his teammates are always chasing the guy AI leaves open..

1-7 ATS

These Nuggets lost 7 out of their last 8 ATS. That's all I really care about, anyway....
