Allen Iverson is an asshole.

Dammit! Whatever will the nba do without him (insert sarcasm here)?

...but he's still going to practice.

Man we talking about practice.....

Wasted talent

He was a great player until he left Philly. I always hated him though.

When I lived in pennsylvania I used to get Sixers games on cable. I wanted to like him because he went to Georgetown and I had just moved from DC, so I watched a bunch of Sixers games. To me, he made the games boring. It was like everything had to funnel through Iverson. It seemed like guys just passed the ball around for a few seconds, didn't want to shoot because they wanted Iverson to have the ball, and then just gave it back to Iverson and he would drive the lane and either get fouled or put up a shot. I just never thought it was any fun to watch.

One of the best little men to ever play the game. Absolutely fearless.
Phenomenal player and will eventually be enshrined in the Hall.
So long Illy Al...

I always admired his toughness. He played through a lot of injuries, and back in the day carried teams that had very weak supporting casts.
He never really figured out how to be a team player and have a diminished role on a team as he got older, though.

So?
The NBA is a boring ****ing joke.... Sucks to watch on TV, even more brutal in person...

I disagree. While the regular season leaves much to be desired, I love watching the playoffs. There are some amazing games come playoff time.

Never seen a game in person, but I would love to go to a OKC game when the Lakers are in town.
