He really messed with the Spurs and outplayed Duncan.
I was really impressed with him athletically.
And of course Popovich thinks he can turn any player

and get a feeling for him.
Thats why Iverson was not even given a whiff by the Spurs
as a 2 guard when he was up for option. Iverson probably
did not want to come to Texas anyway, but Popovich
clearly wanted nothing to do with him. Popovich did want Jason
Kidd until he met Kidd's wife. This really upset Parker at the time.

Look no further than last years playoff stats. He stunk it up. He is only effective, imo, when he's headed to the hoop. Cant shoot a high percentage shot for the life of him. He'll wow you about 8-10 games a year, and ruin all chances in the clutch a good portion of games as well. He should be locked up for turning down the deal we offered him last year and getting an extra 30 mil I believe. HORRIBLE investment. I'll ship him to you if and when I ship Cannon his cheesteaks if he takes the playoff bet.
