Re: Allan Iverson to the Pistons
I read a Yahoo! article today discussing J.R. Smith's size defensive ability compared to Iverson's and how much better it was.
J.R. has the ABILITY to play great D. He just is J.R. Smith and doesn't use it. That's why Karl benches him.

I almost agree, but it wasn't terrible. As a Nuggets fan, this is great, Billups is clearly better NOW, and AI is just, bad. But, keep in mind, he did bad in Denver becuase he and Melo always fought for the spotlight.
Re: Allan Iverson to the Pistons
Now I can't watch ESPN for days, because they are obsessed with Basketball and will be reporting all about this over and over and over...

Thank you very much. That is my opinion on it. It will bring the media's attention on basketball, and non basketball fans will have tro suffer through it. The media always places basketball over other sports I have noticed. Have you guys?

that's becuase the young folk like the TV, and the young folk generally like the B-Ball over other sports.

Maybe you should change your name to CelticsNuggets until baseball season starts again.

Well yeah... Pretty much anyone can play solid D if they chose to (with the exceptions of the Adam Morrison's, and J.J. Reddick's out there)... It's all about effort. J.R. is a VERY athletic player, whom I've liked quite a bit since he was in HS (even though he chose not to go to UNC), and he does have the ability to play good defense, but will he put the effort into it? That's the question.
Re: Allan Iverson to the Pistons
That is the question. It's a huge question. But having Chauncey and JR run the backcourt allows me to watch easier then Anthony Carter.

I think this was a great deal for Detroit. It was mostly a salary dump. Iverson's contract is up at the end of the year as well as Rasheed's. Next year, you can put Stuckey to PG and Rip at SG. Then you got money left over for the flurry of free agents in 2010.
Re: Allan Iverson to the Pistons
Oh, don't get me I LOVE this trade for Denver. I am also a Nuggets fan (not as much as I am a Lakers or Bobcats fan, though). I love watching J.R. Smith play, and I really love watching Melo play... Watching Billups/Smith/Melo will be really exciting... a lot more exciting than AC/AI/Melo.

Agreed but Denver wasn't entirely screwed over.
They were screwed over with or without Iverson mostly lol
But they are better this year. Detroit is more set for the future.
