Checking In On Allen Iverson

Allen Iverson has played with the Philadelphia 76ers for four games so far this season. In those four games (all starts) he has averaged 34.5 minutes, .429 from the field, 4.0 assists, and 15.5 points. He is the 4th highest scorer for the team and is looking better after a slow start where he showed his rust. We know what Iverson thinks of practice so he looked very rusty at first, but better as of late with two 20 point games.

I think Iverson would have been better playing for a contender and being a scorer off the bench or going to a bubble team that needs offense, but he seems content. Many teams need scoring and he is cheap option. The Bulls could have used his scoring, because they need a shooter badly. Iverson's days of being the best offensive player on his team and leading the league in scoring are all in the past, but he is showing that he still has something left in the tank.
