Tonight, Iverson was on fire; the young guys on the other side really showed him respect.
Zhang Yang also played happily; his shooting percentage was a bit low, two percentage points lower than his season average of 46.5%. I didn't know what was up with Iguodala. He defended like a mad dog. They were purposely seeking out the difficulty; this was a sign of respect for the strongest defensive player on the opponent's perimeter.
The Iverson before me was still the original flavor AI. The next time I met Iverson, it would likely be the golden AI.
The Iverson from the Nuggets Team, although he had the highest efficiency in a season and a half, with a shooting percentage over 45% and averaging more than 7 assists per game, was no longer the real Iverson.
Zhang Yang never thought all stars must be the same: must be team players, must make good shooting choices, must cultivate a good image... What's the fun in a basketball world like that?
