OT to JB--: it became apparent tonight AI is semi-crippled---a tailbone injury is a major pain injury that will not improve as he plays on,but only get worse. Was glad to hear Ray Allen have the CLASS to say this isn't the same Iverson he has guarded during the season,that he is definitely hobbling---but said what aj said,seasons are long and you have pace yourself to be sure you in good shape come the playoffs. I can't see the sixers winning now.Again,Ray Allen said,his teamates have got to step in for Iverson being down and basically implied they are finished if they don't. Painful to watch Iverson go 5 for 26. JB,admit i am already thinking of next year,we get our number one pick from last year in uniform--Speedy Claxton,Lynch back and hopefully Snow healed--Jumaine Jones,23 years old has potential written all over him. And this other fellow we got from Atlanta,but also injured,may be a real sleeper in the deal--he was a number one pick also,and is said to have an excellent shot. But the KEY is,both Webber and Antonio Davis(he really impressed me) are free-agents-- either one would fill the deck for us. Croce's wallet is not a tight one,like Lurie's:) max p.s. are those Phils still in first place? also time has come to renew my NFL ticket.:) |
