Detroit's bold move to ship Chauncey Billups to Devnver is slowly starting to reveal basketball madness in Joe D's mind. After all, trading a player with one of the best assist to turnover ratios, 6 conference finals, appearances, and an NBA MVP basketball is not easy. The one thing that seems to lack from the Pistons every year is penetration, points in the paint, and free throw attempts. So far, Allen Iverson is bringing that to the court.
The Eastern Conference will be a tough task for any team this year but the Pistons are a well tested team. Add Iverson's hunger for a ring and the possibility of Antonio McDyess coming back to the Piston lineup and Boston and Cleveland will have fits. Iverson has shown that it is possible for him to make other players better. He has accomplished everything worth accomplishing in his career but he still covets the one thing that Billups already has on his finger. Iverson craves to win at least one championship ring even if he was the 12th man off the bench.
After all, how would that look if Darko ends his career with a ring and one of the game's all-time scorers has only a donut to wear. It would be one of the NBA's greatest injustices to not see Iverson win a championship. The scene is set and the cast members are in place. It's time for Iverson to meet destiny and make history in this year of CHANGE. Perhaps there is some logic behind the madness.
