It should be interesting out west. Looking foward to the next round of matchups.

This is the main reason I like Iverson. He has tremendous will. He puts out everything he has in every game, playoff or not. Its so sad that this great talent cant be funneled in a constructive manner. Iverson wants to win so bad, he just has not figured out how to use the rest of the team. I will say Iverson had a few beautiful passes to Nene for easy slams. But those 3's and fall away jump shots that occur because he got shown up after getting the ball stolen or something else... its just stupid. His bravado just overcomes his sense of team. And when Iverson thinks team, great things happen. There is no guy in the league that can get his shot in any situation like Iverson (kobe but he has got much more size), yet this may actually be his Achilles heal. When his physical attributes begin to decline, he is done. He will not be able to stay in the league as long as someone like Stockton or Sam Cassell. He cant think like them. In fact I think if he had the same injury Nash has right now he would be fairly worthless. But Iverson is one tough little SOB.
