this is the antithesis of the get shaq thread
while shaq brings locker room presence, veteran winning experience
iverson brings baggage, doubt, skepticism and fear
its like looking at the ex girl friends as the one you let get away and now is older, past her prime but is an amazing wife with beautiful kids and a past she can look back on and say
"dont you wish you kept me when I was younger"
thats shaq
iverson on the other hand is the girl who drags you through the mud because of her past relationships where she got cheated on, or was doing the cheating, you keep her around because shes hot and really good in bed, but in the long run you find out shes been calling your friends, still talking to her ex, and faking injuries just to stay home while your at work paying all the bills, eating up all your pizza and drinking your beer.
the knicks are fresh and new now
if you want a veteran player on your team you dont pick the one that you are going to say
"damn man, I should of seen the warning signs that this girl was going to be psycho, the moment she said she wants to score 20 ppg in this offense"
iverson = no.
