One Year Ago today

It’s been a year since AI was ousted by Billy King in a hopeless attempt to save his job. It didn’t work out. AI continues his amazing career in Denver, and those who said he play would begin to fall off have been so wrong. Iverson’s efficiency rating has jumped up to 21.96. Where will I be on March 19th, 2008? The Wachovia center, or as I still like to call it - the F.U. Center. It will be the event of the year, thanks to my mom & stubhub.

  • After the Sixers loss I watched the Denver Nuggets play the Seattle Supersonics. I am still a huge Iverson fan and he put on quite a show. AI was in effect. But this is the new and improved Ivserson. He scored his 25 points, but along with that he handed out 14 assists, grabbed 5 boards, and 7 steals! The Nuggets won pretty easily.

    The truth has started to sink in. This young team isn’t ready for primetime. The news stories have gone from optimistic to realistic.

    No news is good news. is that true in this case? The sixers play the New Jersey nets tonight in preseason action. 76ersblog.com will bring you a special report from an attendee of that game. It’s his first professional basketball game ever, so the insight should be priceless. Sunday I’ll be attending the Wizards/Sixers matchup. At least Gilbert Arenas will be entertaining - I can count on that.

    • Hoops World reports that the Sixers rookies expect to make an impact. That’s a bold statement from the 12th and 19th picks.–>76ers rookies anticipating big year
    • Kyle Korver has nagging groin, I couldn’t help but link that –>Kyle Korver has nagging groin
    • Kevin Ollie is just glad to be here, but continues to compete for backup point guard spot–>Ollie glad to assist as needed
    • Lastly, a strange highlight video (below) with Iverson, Webber, Iguodala and many other past and present sixers.

    George Lynch’s Mob - such a bad idea

    George Lynch's Mob t-shirt Many moons ago, I was a season ticker holder. This was the 1999-2004 era. George Lynch was a staple of those teams, and the hard working, blue collar glue that rode opposite (yet complimentary) to the crossover stylings of Mr. Iverson. Lynch was one of my favorites. Maybe I’m a fan of ugly ball, but I won’t admit to that outright. I got this fine t-shirt sometime back then. Lynch didn’t really have product of any kind. You could get Iverson underwear, but a Lynch tee was rare. This shirt was an awful idea then, and still is - so, I had to have it. This is an actual arena sold shirt, not a guy on the corner shirt. Now it’s here for you all to enjoy.
