Is AI still using his wicked crossover much these days? Or has he gone or started going old school like John Stockton? I have not watched a single game since MJ's final season with the wizards so I wouldnt know.

15 seems reasonable. Nate Robinson would kick Melo's ass.

After the suspensions and fines were announced on Monday, the Nuggets and Knicks each had games to play that night.

Both teams did pull out wins, though, and the Knicks did it with only 8 players suited up.

The Mavs kept rolling with their winning ways, downing the Kings.

It's official, the Nuggets acquired AI, giving up Andre Miller, Joe Smith and 2 first rounders

^I'll be very interested as to how this'll workout for Iverson and the Nuggets.
A.I. is a scorer, and when Melo's back after his 15 game suspension, will it workout when they're both on the floor.

Melo's leading the league in scoring, and Iverson has had to always carry the scoring load when he was in Philly.
Will Iverson be able to defer, will Melo?

Really won't know until Melo is back.

i think they have to work with each other well. Camelo prolly respect AI as a player. Cant wait to see what they bring to the court.

Sixers gonna be a good team in a few years.

Thimas X · « **Reply #1326 on:** December 20, 2006, 04:38:42 AM »

For some reason I don't think Melo/Iverson is a good thing. Hardly anyone likes to play with Iverson. Someone is going to have to step down to the #2 option.

jChu* · « **Reply #1327 on:** December 20, 2006, 05:33:06 AM »

Current NBA leading and 2nd leading scorer on the same team. Wonder how that will work out once Melo is back from his suspension.

This pic is cool.

Does anyone remember A.I. saying something about the altitude in Denver, and how it was affecting his performance during the All Star Game when it was in Denver.

RatBastich · « **Reply #1329 on:** December 20, 2006, 08:01:21 PM »

Now that Iverson's in the West, I've heard that this will cause a shift in the AllStar voting, what with all the votes that A.I. got while he was still with the 76er's have now come with him to the Nuggets.

That puts him in the top 3 voting for West guards, with Kobe and T-Mac.

Here's a question: Who will be the West coach in the AllStar game?

From I hear, it might the Spurs Coach Pop again, as long as the Spurs keep winning and stay on top the West with the best record.

Another thing, the Suns have run off a franchise best 15 game winning streak.

RatBastich · « **Reply #1330 on:** December 21, 2006, 07:44:53 PM »

Iverson's first game as a Denver Nugget is Friday, against the Kings.

Nowitzki went down during the Mavs/Sonic's game last night, rolling his ankle, after the Sonic's Wilcox lost his balance coming down after a rebound attempt, and ended up kicking Nowitzki's ankle, causing it to roll.

Nowitzki was helped off the court, and his ankle x-rayed, the results coming back negative.
He'll be re-examined in Dallas.

The Nuggets/Sun's game was postponed due to the snowstorm that's hit Denver hard, and hasn't been rescheduled yet.

Spurs won their game last night to keep a game and a half ahead in the mid-West division, and maintain the best record in the NBA.
It was a game the Spurs should won going away, without a problem against the last place Grizzlies, but in the second half, the Grizzlies gave back and made a run, but with timely baskets by Micheal Finley, the Spurs held on to get the win.

THANK YOU MAVS for finally beating the HEAT :evil: Lakers couldn't even lose a game or two without falling games behind.

Still can't get over AI playing for the Nuggets, congrats to George Karl on his 800th win

T-Mac's back...and looks like the old ball might swing wins-losses too. KG likes it.

RatBastich · « **Reply #1339 on:** January 02, 2007, 09:48:58 PM »

Let's see how things go now that the old ball is back.

Another thing, the AllStar Break is gonna be coming up pretty quick, get your votes in if you haven't yet for the AllStar game.
