Philadelphia never should have signed washed up guard Allen Iverson to a new contract. The reason is apparent in this short clip. The former king of the crossover, got burned the other night by Detroit Pistons guard Rodney Stuckey.
Iverson began his storied career in Philly as the #1 first round draft pick in 1996. But over the years he pissed away his talents in exchange for street cred as a NBA thug. It is mainly because of Iverson that the NBA instituted its strict dress code.
After a troubled career which involved a stint in federal prison, the 76ers traded the bad boy to Denver in 2006. Iverson announced his plans to retire from the NBA after being dropped by the Grizzlies on Nov. 16. He rejoined the 76ers on Dec. 2nd with a one year contract.
Allen Iverson used to be that DEAL.. IDK what happen.. But the man still is sexy!!!!!
mmhmm…Flordia.:cosign:
I dont know bout now, but he was the business back in the day and he still fine as hell!
I am a die heart A.I fan and please believe me he is still the man dont get me wrong he is older but he still got it…..
He is a loser. Lost in Philly, lost in The Olympics, The OLYMPICS!, lost in Denver, lost in Detroit. He is not a team player just a one on one Egomaniac
@rjk8 you say what you want it takes a team to win not just one person lmao hater
This fool has acted like a self absorded fool for years. Unwilling to be a team player, unwilling to come off the bench. Now that the end is near, tears. Cry me a river nigga
@sandra if you know anything about basketball in that clip he is flopping lmao
I was so glad when he left the Pistons! Maybe he should seriously consider retirement.
People need to realize if you dont like him do watch it how hard is that
@netta0281
FYI they did stop watching. When he came into the league the NBA was at its peak in popularity. He introduced wanabe thug life (low hanging pants, corn rows, tats and that I don’t giveafu<k attitude) to the NBA and its been down hill every since. The NBA is just recovering from those negative images. Unfortunately, an entire generation of black teenagers was influenced by this clown.
@RJK8 Haters stop watching the people that love him is still watching…Did you not see the Sixers stands was damm near empty within 2 hrs after the announce he was going back every home game has sold out so dont tell me everyone has stop watching..SO what he got tats please believe he was not the first person in the NBA to have tattoos. You sound so stupid the black teenagers was influence by him get a life..Are you dumb as you sound. People was wearing bagging pant and cornrows before A.I. Your a lost cost…Lmao Research your facts before you throw dirt at him
Auntie you better leave AI alone…….I met him at Freaknik his 1st year in the league. Those were the good old days.
@rjk8 didnt dennis rodman have tattoos and didnt he have that i dont give a fuck attitude my point exactly
@netta0281
Iverson glamorized wannabe gangsta thug life and introduced it to the NBA. Dennis Rodman is an insecure weirdo. Big difference with Dennis Rodman. He was a free agent a team player, a winner who won big in Detroit, Chicago, and I think another team. TEAM PLAYER! Which includes PRATICE I’M TALKIN BOUT PRACTICE. lmao It’s amazing how people make excuses for B.S. Yeah they came out to see Iverson the way people come out to see a car wreak. Just lay back and watch how its going to end. The same way it always ends for sociopaths. I know you don’t know what that word means so look it up. Learn something today. I would have given him a pass because people mature and change. At this point, he has not changed (see Detroit and Memphis). He’s a loser just like you. Got excuses for everything.

You might want to proof read your comments before you submit. You have so many errors in your comments that it makes you appear to be uneducated.
AI didnt come back to play ball, he came back to retire as a Sixer. He always said tht he wanted to retire in Philly.
Who cares if you give him a pass your just 1 person that hates him and he got a million that loves him……
And my spelling is fine thank you im very educated, educated enough to know not to go back and forth with you.
rjk8 – Real talk. It is what it is, and IMO, you called it. That is all.
I LOVE A.I.
I know the haters are watching the game tonight, now what yall gotta say i thought nothing lmao
