Re: NY TIMES: Iverson Eyeing NBA Comeback
As a big iverson fan growing up, I'm not totally against AI for the minimum. I'd take him for the minimum over Brown for whatever he wants.

Re: NY TIMES: Iverson Eyeing NBA Comeback
i dont even wanna bother reading everyone elses posts. All i need to see is the title of this subject and the answer is a resounding...
Hell No.
thats a hell no two years ago, last year, this year and anything beyond. This should be an open and shut case.

I dont think he would do a camp unless he knew he had a legit spot.

Re: NY TIMES: Iverson Eyeing NBA Comeback
Iverson is out the league because he couldn't drop his pride for the sake of winning, he never wanted to come off the bench and that's why contenders never made a move for him. When he went back to Philly he didn't want to come off there either, they had moved on from him. He would've hindered Williams growth. He didn't want to come off the bench in Memphis either...again he was going to hinder another young guards growth.
I'm sorry but being a harden " I don't feel sorry for a screw up" type guy....Iverson can rot in Turkey.

Well I kinda side with AI as far as that issue went. I agree with what he said, If you want me to come off the bench for a contender like San Antonio or LAL ok, but why come off the bench in Memphis without even being able to compete for a starting position, with a team that wasnt a contender. Every1 has a different point of view, but thats how I see it.

Really? Before this season, Conley was a **** ass Point Guard, how can you bench someone of Iverson's caliber, for this scrub (at that time)? I remember one game, Iverson wasn't even on the court for the 4th and overtime when he was fully healthy. He could have been the closer for that Grizzlies team but was never given the chance. In Detroit, their dummy head coach (who was fired after the season BTW) benched AI for freaking Stuckey who was showing some growth but should have been used as a spark plug on the bench. Rip Hamilton was benched and he had some shady comments about it, but that never was blown up. AI might have had an attitude problem but with these idiotic coaches, you know why he was frustrated with each situation.

Two days on any roster before we all hear "hey man, I was a All-Star, of course I need the ball in my hands to create my shot".
Anyhow, he's so beyond done, it's funny to entertain the thought of a return. Him and Marbs should sit down and come up with a strategy.
