Great win, great game, well coached game. But, is anyone else suprised that Iverson didnt get rewarded with the start in the second half? Isn't that what happens to others who outlplay the starter in the first half?
I guess my real point is sometimes Iverson struggles with moving his feet on defense; he probably always will. I remember in the second half Howard scored two straight on Iverson and Tubby took him out. Luckily for Sampson they sat Howard right after that. I feel like Iverson gets punished for having slow feet, its not for lack of effort. Yet what Iverson brings to this team(physical presense, rebounding,post scoring) is so important I just hope he doesnt get fustrated getting yanked all the time. I'm not sure he played another minute and we still won. I know his crappy free throw shooting probably factored in at the end of the game. I just would have appreciated a reward for the monster first half. Look, Howard was going to score on whoever was in there.
