    Lol....I'll tell you a general rule of thumb. The modern day Headband players typically are low IQ ballers....look the George Karl nuggets for the prime example....Melo, JR, AI, Kmart, birdman, etc

    Surprisingly, Brewer actually has a HIGH bball IQ..dude knows exactly when to slash, shoot, or kick out. The +/- don't lie.

    This is 100% true and I was aware of both when I typed my OP. There are always exceptions to any rule or generalization.

    Josh Smith isn't a low IQ player, but he sure is a low FG% player. :)

    Early paul pierce was a classic headband player. He really changed his career narrative during the big 3's run.

    Dirk is not a player you would associate the headband with. Not for most of his career.

    Lebron does it to hide his hairline.

    I said earlier that Paul was considered a classic headband baller early in his career. Even with a ecf run under his belt they questioned him and walker in Boston before the big 3 arrived.

    Vince for the most part didn't wear a head band in Toronto during his peak.

    I have never liked his game, thought he is one of the dumbest players in the league.

    The Rockets had a good team with DMO finally came through with more playing time, now they are going backwards again, with this loser.

    Just like the "fire McHale" thread, and any thread about Lin, we're never going to get rid of this one. It's just going to yo-yo between both sides.

    Great game tonight from Josh.

    Josh smith hitting fools gold 3s does not change the fact that he is a low IQ player. Nice turnover on the break.
