This dude is 3-4 inches shorter than me and averaging 30 ppg on 20 shots in the NBA. In what world is that possible? 
Who the fukk cares?
Didn't one of them have the COTY, 6MOTY, and DPOTY? I mean, I'd say that Mutumbo is as good as anyone on the Ctics not named IT?
And just a good job competing on the offensive end? He's averaging slightly less points on MUCH higher efficiency, with less turnovers, comparable assists, and in far less minutes?
In Iverson defense never played with the offensive talent it4 has on his squad except when they whereor melo.
Yeah, Iverson probably had worse squad but they were in one of the weakest Eastern conferences and IT is putting up similar numbers in almost TEN LESS MINUTES PER GAME.
That's pretty huge.

nikkas gon hate but IT numbers dont lie

Breh, I remember playing against a couple of D2 hoopers who were all like 6'3 and shyt was fukking impossible. People don't understand how hard it is to shoot quickly and accurately to shoot over athletic freaks that much bigger than you before they can contest you.
IT is an ungodly talented scorer. Kyrie-esque

Stop trying to compare nikkas to AI. It's corny as fukk
Was waiting for the coli to make this thread :lolmj:
Its rare you can cite a series in which a player lost to elevate their legacy but AI's legendary game 1 against the Lakers is the rare exception. I want to see baby bop lead the Celtics to the finals and hang 48 and a dub on the Warriors and then we can revisit this.
I like Thomas but this rush to annoint him is stupid.
Hes having a great year and hes a 2 time all star but he isnt in the same category as LeBron,Durant,Curry or Harden...
Hes had one great year averaging 28 PPG(on incredibly high usage) and no playoff success...He needs to do more before hes in that elite category.
I need to see deep playoff runs before I see people crowning him and putting him above AI
care about what thots care about
Riley hates small point guards (Same reason we didn't go for Lowry) and IT is getting older. You know that. He'd probably be great for us too and we're good enough defensively to for us.
AI didn't even lead the 76ers to the finals.
Dikembe was the reason they even got past the Ray Allen Bucks. Put these Celtics in that 2001 EC and they probably sweep the entire playoffs until the Lakers.
Put Iverson's 76ers in the East now, they'd be Lebron's bytch too and would never get out to the finals.
Iverson isn't in that tier either
Every single one of them nikkas has had better seasons than him and AI's playoff success is barely getting past the Ray Allen Bucks once to get ass-smashed by the Lakers. How is getting ass-smashed by the Lakers in 5 in the finals better than getting ass-smashed by the Cavs in the ECF?
Talking about high usage but IT is averaging almost as many PPG, more assists than Iverson's MVP season, and much higher efficiency in FAR LESS MPG.
Is that true or not?
No one has said IT is better than Iverson though
Iverson had ONE deep playoff run to the finals in one of the weakest Eastern Confrences ever.
Do you really think IT's Celtics wouldn't shyt all over Ray Allen's Bucks in 5? He wouldn't blow right through the ECF?
