Haha funniest thing just happen

Near the end of hte first half, Iverson brings up the ball. Reggie evans is standing near the bench with his jersey on and Iverson thought he was in the game, but he was actually on the bench and not part of the playing five, and Iverson passed him the ball. Turnover haha

sure he does average a lot of assists but are you talking about the guy who averages the most shot attempts per game in the league? i agree he hasn't been selfish so far in denver and that's a good sign for when 'melo comes back, not sure if it's gonna be so cool all the way through with two such huge scoring superstars, they both need to yield ground on the scoring and the star attention for the sake of working together plus the fact that a confrontational a.i needs to get along with a pretty confrontational coach....if they really get their act together, with a support cast of smith, camby, nene, boykins, evans, najera et al, they will be as fun to watch as the suns...but that's a really big if for me....

AI is already getting along with Karl because AI doesn't have any problems practicing with the team and he already stated he loves Karls game, and all he ever wanted to do was run run and run. He also stated that no matter what he is going to make it work between him and Carmelo, and let Carmelo take more shots during games.

yeah i know, and as i said, these are positive signs, but he has never before played a secondary role in his career and it's not gonna come easy to him whatever he says, i just hope it works out....
 
I actually find NBA quite boring but bought NBA 2005 ages ago on PS2 and it is quite possibly the best game I have ever played.

What are NBA 2006 and 2007 like?

ends with 44 and 10...3 double doubles for a.i in 3 games, looking good so far....
Yeah but the real test begins when Melo returns. What if he has to settle for 20 and 5 from time to time?

yes true...i don't think he'll have to bring down the number of assists though:) , it's how he reacts to the lesser scoring opportunities and consequently a secondary role that will be interesting....

What bosh did this season in 19 games so far, Ewing did the same with 3 more blocks per a game, and 8 more points per a game for 82 straight games.
But what I am trying to say is that Chris Bosh isn't in his prime yet. So we really can't judge between the two. Yes no doubt Ewing was a legend and might even achieve a place in the Hall of Fame this year, but there should be no doubt that Bosh clearly has the potential to be one as well.

You know, you can never predict the future. Jay Williams had great potential, but his career was ruined by injury, and today no team wants him. The second overall pick of the 2002 draft is playing in the D League. I'm not saying Bosh doesn't have potential. He sure does, and if he can remain free of a huge injury, he might be able to come near Ewing. But I don't see that happening. He shows no potential as being a good shot blocker as Ewing. He might match Ewing with points and rebounds, but Ewing will always be the better shot blocker, and it would edge in Ewings favor on who would end up being better.
