No doubt. But listen to this from San Antonio's Bruce Bowen concerning practice and the Spurs having 3 days off... finally... 3 days off so they can...
gives us a chance to practice instead of just walk-throughs and video study. Its good to get back to the basics. Coaches can stop the practice at certain times and teach more. It is very important to take care of the little things. So we got at least 2 full days of good practice.
Popovich asked on picking up Iverson:
We will pass ya think?
Go back and listen to that U-tube. And Canon... ya think the Spurs take a peek at Iverson? Ya think any real contenders want him... Listen to the U-tube and think about it. Iverson plays a different game. It is an incredible game, but it is not a game to be played with refs and defense. Iverson leads the league in steals some years and plays some of the worst defense I have ever seen. He gambles, its do or die.
Ya think Allen wants to learn a system?
John Stockton set some of the most vicious picks I have ever seen. Not much bigger than Iverson and played as long as any guard in the league.
Again I love his effort. But it is so misplaced. Ya think Riley, Jackson really thought about taking him... seriously. No way. The best coaches want nothing to do with him.
