you were doing pretty fine until this horrible argument

in what world was dikembe the reason they got past bucks? AI is the one that was carrying this team ,if you take AI out of sixers they are bottom eastern conference team. Dikembe had absolutely no game on the offense, he's one dimensional big man. Yall can shyt on AI all you want but that 2001 run was his, not some role player teammates

Those games were decided by defense and controlling possessions. The 76ers won a game where Iverson went 5-27 and 10-32 so don't give me the Iverson carried them shyt. Any star in this league would get blasted for going 5-27 in a playoff game and still get a win :mjlol:

Isaiah Thomas doesn't keep up this same efficiency if he had to play another 10 minutes a night though, breh, that's why this whole "Take minutes away and they'll be worse" and "Give them extra minutes and they'll get extra stats" shyt is stupid.

If Isaiah could keep up the same efficiency and the team didn't have to worry about him tiring with ten extra minutes per game, guess what? He would PLAY ten minutes more every game.

Even if his efficiency did get worse, the difference between AI and IT in efficiency is like comparing Lebron James to Rudy Gay.

So I feel like if Isaiah took 7 more shots a game and looked to score, he'd more than likely make one of them.

But who cares? IT is also averaging more assists and less turnovers too so he'd probably make up for that lower efficiency with even more assists than Iverson did in his best year.

Oh, IT doesn't come out due to just tiring issues. It's mostly defensive. Dude is just as consistent at the start of the game as he is ending and since he doesn't have to attack the hoop like Iverson due to being a much better shooting, it doesn't seem to exert him as much.

:snoop:

Maybe he'd have to exert more energy playing another ten minutes per game breh. :camby:

how can you say the games were decided by defense and controlling possessions?? Use some simple logic if you take Iverson out of the team they dont even win a game against bucks, even when iverson has a horrible shooting night he draws defense in, which helps his role players get wide open, if you take him out these non scoring role players would get shut down. So don't try to invent something new, the way this team was built was around Iverson. The rest of his teammates were not capable of being #1 scoring option.
