yea...he does have off games. BUT i've watched all his games, and i can tell when he is gonna have a good one and a bad one just by watching him in the first quarter. with the Nuggets, he's not doing it anymore, he doesn't shoot as much, his !@#$%^&*ists actually went up because he has help. this is their first year together, their chemistry isn't all there yet. plus, the playoffs doesn't count. he injured his elbow in the first game, and you can tell it bothered him the rest of the series, which is why his shots were off. but the thing about Iverson is, alot of his missed shots come from attempted layups. his shooting isnt necessarily bad. i know everybody would be afraid to leave the man wide open for a shot. LOL...first of all, MJ is overrated. put him in his prime against the league's superstars, he'd be like everybody else. back then, there weren't many players to compare him to. i've said this all along, if he was in his prime right now against iverson, kobe, tmac, carter, nash, amare, etc., he wouldn't be any better. you also have to realize that the game was played much easier back in the day. Iverson is my fav player and will always be. i admit that he has his weaknesses, but overall, he's better than any player. he's showed that once you put him with players who can finish consistently, he's unstoppable. in the allstar games, he easily racked up 15 !@#$%^&*ists in like 20-30 mins. the problem that i have with the Nuggets is that i didn't think Melo was a good fit for Iverson. i thought KG was a better fit. the team still needs a lot of building but they're going places.
