Wait, wait. Rodney Stucky HAS to give up his #3 to A.I., right? I mean, RIGHT???
I just checked the Pistons roster, and it has Stucky keeping his number and A.I. picking up Chauncey's old #1. That’s just wrong, Yo.

Are they trying to tell AI he's just being rented?
Stuckey's the future: he keeps his number.
It's an interesting call. Maybe AI didn't ask for his number. Maybe he wants to show he's a team guy. I think it's big of him not to demand it if that's the case. D'trois' makin' a serious run this year. FUCKIN ShiT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
F that. Iggy was the future, and he gave up #4 to broke-down C-Webb. That's just what you do as a young buck when a respected veteran joins your squad.

P.S. I missed the last two Erz games. Gotta get back. Hope you're wrong about AI2.
He had a nice stat line last night. He's the same dude. It's just that that's gonna be problem if it continues. It's one thing to be a nice complimentary player when you're being paid like one. Now, that you held management's feet to the fire to get your money, you better act like the #2 you're employed to be. Iggy's weakness, as I see it, is that he doesn't assert himself during the game. He very rarely imposes his will. When things aren't working, we shouldn't have to look to Lou to get things poppin'. That's Iggy's job. Drive the lane. Get fouled. Dunk on somebody's head. Play the passing lanes. Whatever. Look for a way to shake shit up. He's got the skills for the job, but he's got to get some fire in his belly.
So far, Philly has issues protecting the ball and shooting a decent percentage. The former is a bit unexpected. They're beasts on the boards. And they have nice balance in their offensive contributions. But mo's got to get in guys ear when it's time ot turn it on. Elton's not a dominant force. He can't swallow a team whole like Timmy or Shaq in their primes. The Sixers at their best are like a highly skilled boxer that relies on technique, speed, punching combinations. Roy Jones Jr. to a Cavaliers Mike Tyson. They have the tools in the kit. They just gotta learn how to put it together. Like I said, 25 games. It'll take that long for guys to even learn what each other can do.
