"I had no problems (with the hamstring). I had a problem with my butt sitting on that bench for so long," Iverson told the Memphis Commercial Appeal.
When a reporter suggested that the Grizzlies' bench needed Iverson's scoring punch, he disagreed.
"No. I'm not a bench player. I'm not a sixth man," Iverson added. 'Look at my resume and that'll show I'm not a sixth man. I don't think it has anything to do with me being selfish. It's just who I am. I don't want to change what gave me all the success that I've had since I've been in this league. I'm not a sixth man. And that's that."
I like Allen Iverson..I think he is a great basketball player, but damn....it was his 1st game back. He played well yesterday in limited minutes (17 minutes, 11 pts, 5-9 shooting)...eventually, he would get the starting job there..what the hell is his problem?As an Allen Iverson fan, I'm pretty dissapointed in his actions...
