He didn't really CAUSE the debacle he was forced into it. It's not for a lack of trying that they sucked he just really didn't fit in with that roster. I don't blame Iverson but I still wouldn't want him on the Spurs.Quote:

Having something to proven doesn't necessarily mean they can do it.Quote:

I just shudder to think about the Spurs trying to toss a group of undersized, inexperienced bigs up against someone like Dwight Howard.
Hopefully these guys can seriously surprise. It be a shame if Holt finally opened up the pocketbook and we couldn't put together the right mix of guys to produce at least a deep run in the playoffs.
Not sure if this has been posted yet. His stats look pretty good.
His numbers went down during Euroleague but I guess that can be attributed to stiffer competition. That 23.3% 3pt percentage is nothing to write home about.

Spurs fans just insanely overate his level. One of the best PF of Spanish league level but not Euroleague level.Quote:

Being one of the best PF in the Spanish league still counts for something. Better than being the best PF in say the Greek league :toastQuote:

I wouldn't call 5 rebounds per game in 27 minutes atrocious. Below average, maybe.Quote:
