Pistons guard Allen Iverson wants to be the focal point of the team's offense, but isn't going to make waves in the process.

"I would love to be a focal part on the offensive end," Iverson said after Detroit's loss to Cleveland on Sunday.

"That's where I've been all my career. And that's why I play the game. That's the type of competitor I am. In crucial situations, I want the ball in my hands. But like I've been saying all along: The calls they make, I trust my teammates and the coaching staff to be able to get us over the hump."

The Pistons are 21-21 with Iverson, but he stopped short of claiming that the team would be better with him as the top offensive option.

"Don't do that to me," Iverson said. "You're opening up a can of worms. I don't even want to do that. I trust the way everything is going. I don't have a choice. What I say don't matter."
GOLY GEE. WHAT KIND OF STUPID IDEA IS THIS?!

Curry is dropping the ball on this trade. I highly doubt Dumars got Iverson just so he could try to adjust him to "team-ball."
