Iverson and a ball controlling Point guard would not work because he doesnt work as well without the ball. Doesnt mean he isnt a better player than Raymond Felton. I mean how can we even be having this conversation?
Because you're obviously missing the entire f.ucking point. No one said he isn't a better player than Felton, BUT HE'S NOT A BETTER POINT GUARD BECAUSE HE'S NOT A F.UCKING POINT GUARD.

Oh but he is a better PG than Felton and that isnt even his primary position. When was the last time you saw Felton play?

This from the guy that just said he can never watch a Bobcats game all the way through.

Holy f.uck. We're talking about pure point guards and you're trying to tell me that whatever percentage of Iverson that's a point guard is better than 100% of certain other point guards. Awesome. I think James Posey is a better 2, 3 and 4 than half the league. YEAH, BUT HE PLAYS ALL 3 POSITIONS!!!

This s.hit is like saying Edgar Martinez is a better third baseman than Adrian Beltre.

Oh now we are talking about PURE point guards. Ok. You win. Whatever!

Have you ever watched any Bobcats game? If you have you would understand why they arent a compelling watch.

And the E Martinez analogy isnt fitting because baseball has defined positions where the NBA doesnt. And E. Martinez is a so much better hitter that even his iron glove wouldnt tilt the advantage to Adrain Beltroid.
