John Wall 8-20 with 7 turnovers tonight in another loss. I havent watched him much this season but given his overall shitty play his 9 assists a game must be partly due to stat padding. Guy has really taken a step backwards this year in my opinion. His team sucks ass and it starts with him.

Re: NBA Thread
Btw verb, a few pages back you mentioned you used to read slam when you were a kid. Does that mean you were an Iverson fan?

Re: NBA Thread
Yeah I liked him quite a bit back then. I had the Reeboks. I probably still have the cover issue of him when he was still at Georgetown Scoop Jackson wrote. I heard Scoop threatened to walk if they didn't put the kid on the cover. Turned out he was onto something. Slam also had a Beastie Boys Anthony Mason interview.....Ice Cube and Nick Van Exel...Jeff Ament and Rodman (lol).
The 31 year old version of me as a NBA fan probably doesn't gravitate towards an Allen Iverson type player anymore though.

I remember him being the king of that magazine so it made me wonder if you liked Iverson too like I did.

Re: NBA Thread
I was never a big Iverson fan. Recognized the talent and the heart but he was way too much of a ball stopper. His teammates didn't help him I guess.

Re: NBA Thread
Curry has no game winners. He's off the list. The Ray Allen 3 to save game 6 for the Heat was the most clutch shot of all time not taken by Jordan.
