Wurider05 Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 How can anyone stop a guy who can shoot the ball 30-35 times a game. I mean come on. The thing about Iverson that I find so funny is that people always look at his scoring but he rarely gets his teamates involved. Just think of al lthe talent that they have had that couldn't play with him hogging the ball all the time. You read JJ's quote about getting the team involved and playing as a whole. I mean those other guys bust their asses just to watch A.I shoot over thirty times a night. Team ball is the future of the league people and I am glad that we are following that route instead of expecting JJ to drop 30 points a night.

KB21 Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 I know. The guy shoots 30 shots a game and gets to the free throw line a lot due to phantom fouls. Somehow in John Hollinger's cockeyed ratings, Allen Iverson is rated as the most efficient player in basketball. I'm really starting to detest John Hollinger's stuff. He's really sounding like those damn sabermatricians in baseball that don't look at anything but on base percentage and OPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wurider05 Posted December 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 He must gives points for shots taken, shots missed, and shots made!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifelong Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 c'mon, AI shot 55% in that game, and the Sixers as a team shot 47%. it's hard to criticize a guy who shoots 31 times if he makes 17 of them and goes 19-21 from the line.

Wurider05 Posted December 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 That's rare and you know it. He usually shoots in the low 40's or high 30's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AHF Posted December 27, 2005 Moderators Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 Give AI credit. He is shooting like 45% this year and with the foul calls he gets and a reasonable # of 3s, that is by far the most effective scoring season of his career.
