The numbers speak volumes: 26.3 points, 4.5 assists, 4.3 rebounds, 3.25 steals.

They add up to 76ers victories in the four games Allen Iverson played last week. They add up to Iverson's being named the NBA's Eastern Conference Player of the Week for the fifth time in his career.

The Sixers, who began the season 0-5, have swept their last five games since Iverson returned from arthroscopic surgery on his right elbow.

"On a scale of 1 to 10, Allen's about a 5 of what he's going to be,'' Sixers coach Larry Brown said.

The Minnesota Timberwolves' Kevin Garnett was named the Western Conference Player of the Week, averaging 24.3 points, 13.3 rebounds and 6.0 assists in three victories.
