其实这已经是昨天的报导了 不过里面有一些教练们对AI的感想 里面也提到Karl应该会接受Larry Brown的提议，用当初Brown带AI的方式来带AI 北卡帮(Karl、Doug Moe、Larry Brown)果然都会互通有无啊 XD ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://tinyurl.com/ylhvux Nuggets amazed by Iverson's boundless energy By Clay Latimer, Rocky Mountain News December 28, 2006 Yes, he played all but 12 minutes of two NBA games, moved his family cross country, attended three practices, celebrated Christmas and started learning a new playbook. All in five days. But is Allen Iverson slowing down, worn down from his turbulent final days in Philadelphia and his manic pace in Denver, where thin air alone frazzles most newly arrived jocks? Not quite. As practice drifted to a close early Wednesday afternoon, Iverson, on his own, started running sprints at the Pepsi Center, less than 16 hours after scoring 28 points and handing out 13 assists while logging 44 minutes in the Nuggets' 116-105 win against the Boston Celtics. "Surprised. It's probably more like amazed," Denver coach George Karl said about Iverson's energy. "In the two games I've played him, I think I've seen the guy get tired once - in the fourth quarter (Tuesday) he got tired a little. "There are certain guys, it's easy to play, it's easy to run. They don't get tired, and he's one of them. . . . I'm sure it's genetic." （这些球员平常都坐冷板凳坐到结蜘蛛网，有上场机会难道还不努力吗？ XD） Added Iverson: "I want to play every game like it's my last." Iverson's size (small), natural energy level (boundless) and passion for the game (extreme) enable him to move relentlessly at a speed few can match for a quarter, much less an entire game. Against the Celtics, he drove, dished, shot, crashed the boards, crashed to the floor for loose balls and ran the break without coming close to breaking down. Even when Karl sat him for a brief breather, Iverson bounded off the bench to meet his new teammates at halfcourt after a timeout. "I don't like to sit on the bench anyway, I'd rather be on the court playing. I don't mind playing a lot of minutes at all," he said. (难怪AI上场时间没有我当初所预估的减少...orz) Blockbuster trades frequently re- energize marquee players, enabling them to reframe their game or reputations, as Charles Barkley, Sha- quille O'Neal, Steve Nash and Jason Kidd revealed during the past decade or so. Iverson's exuberance is as obvious now as his despair was in his final months with the 76ers - especially when Nuggets fans stomp their approval at the Pepsi Center. "Every day he talks about how the atmosphere here is so different that what he came from," Nuggets center Marcus Camby said. "He comes out and he absorbs a lot of energy. "I'm definitely not surprised (with his stamina). These little guys can run all day; him and Earl Boykins never seem to run out of energy." In fact, Iverson led the NBA in minutes (43.1 minutes) last season, an honor as routine for him as a crossover dribble. "Larry (Brown) said if you take him out for a minute, he'll swear at you," said Nuggets assistant coach Doug Moe, who chatted with former 76ers coach Brown before the trade for Iverson. "He's rare. To go that much and that hard - offhand, I can't tell you of a player who needed less rest. And it's not like we're talking about a guy who's 20, or a guy who's dogging it. Michael Adams could go and play, but Iverson's unique in that he's a superstar who has all the attention on him. It's tough." Actually, Iverson revels in the whirlwind, according to Pat Croce, the 76ers president and part owner when Iverson was drafted out of Georgetown. "He's a hurricane of activity. He thrives on chaos, in life, on the street, on the court. And there's no on/off button," he told The Philadelphia Daily News after the trade. During his final month in Philadelphia, Iverson spent six games on the inactive list and was essentially banned from practice, the ultimate indignity for a man who can't even abide riding the pine. "I think everyone knows how much I love being out on the court, competing and winning," he said in a release on his Web site after the trade. "That's why it was so disheartening to be told that I couldn't play, knowing that I was ready. "It hurt even more to be told not to come at all." The Nuggets appear willing to accommodate in unprecedented ways. In fact, to encourage his fast-forward play in games, they plan to cut him some slack in practice. "Larry told me he won't want to practice," Moe said. "That's fine with me and I think it's fine with George. We'll try and get him as much rest as we can. He is getting older. Believe me, when you play so many games, and you're playing that many minutes and that hard - well, all he's going to be doing in practice is shooting or walking through." --
