AI 60, coments inter. crowd him and Duncan

[Rummpd]

Won't be as fun as Kori and TimVP's party for those of you lucky stiffs in SA but was at an international based public health party in Philly this weekend and some of us were gathered for awhile around a small TV watching AI just go off vs. Orlando and drinking various stuff and eating God knows what (but very good).

AT was simply unstoppable, among the greatest regular season performaces I have ever seen by one player.

One of the guests an anethesiologist and hospital director from Siberia who was also some type of former Russian special forces (and who had played BB in Russia and was about 6'6) said that AI in superb English AI is the toughest little American dude he had ever seen play and that "he would love to go to war or play with him anytime". Another towering dentist from Romania said those big players ought to be ashamed for that little guy "abusing them" and how the *&$% in some language did America lose the Olympics with this guy, James, and Tim Duncan (who they all love and respect and to a man these 5 internationals all thought far better than Shaq and Garnett) They also said that they respected these guys for at least going to the Olympics. They also love Manu and in particular, Parker's games. One said he thought that Parker had scored more than 50 several times in his early years in French and Euro ball.

I could not argue with that, except muttering back semidrunk comments about Larry Brown, foul calls on Duncan, and
Brown's coaching in the Olympics etc.

Back to AI = don't bet against him for MVP of Allstar game - he has put up some unbelievable performaces latley despite his injuries.

Iverson is awesome. He validates his status every game, even though he doesn't have a championship.
