[QUOTE="Lugnutz, post: 5408373, member: 603567"] Iverson is a completely different player then Billups so you can't just slide him into the starting PG and expect the team to run like Billups is still there. The offense takes on a totally different dynamic with Iverson. Iverson is a an attacker and pushes the ball whereas Billups takes the ball up court, and sets the offense. Iverson is a more volume shooter then Billups. Iverson is also not a true PG and since they have moved Stuckey into the starting PG, they have been doing better with Iverson at the SG. He also didn't transition well in Denver. Denver is a whole other ball of wax since they have Carmelo. When you trade the facilitator and most important player on your team for the polar opposite type player, there will be a learning curve. i know this was a lot for you to handle and I don't expect you to comprehend all of it.
