Through Thick and Thin I will always be a fan of your game A.I. Make that money and play some ball because we all know we wish to be in your position, you know, ballin at the highest level of competition. Fuck Z-Bo, dude sucks and he will always suck. When was the last time Z-Bo won anything?

I hate him, but I would rather have him heave a shot three steps from the 3pt line than zach take a perimeter jumper…

AI deserves more than the treatment he has been given since he left Denver!

^^^exactly! the Cancer has been “looking/waving off” teammates since he picked up a ball. He just doesn’t get it and it’s a sad sad waste of talent. You would think after Philly traded him that he’d realize he wasn’t “That Nicca” anymore. But somehow he just keeps his mind set on being the baddest MF out there. And he’s not.

“his frustration for not being noticed by the other team or his teammates while being wide open.”

He really wasn’t complaining about not getting the ball. He was expressing his frustration for not being noticed by the other team or his teammates while being wide open. If you are wide open and no one notices your on the court at a critical time if you are Bruce Bowen you shut up, but if you are AI that is something that never has happened before and you have a right to say something is wrong.

It is saying that Conley is better when he is being put before you when the game matters most…This was an opportunity for AI to contribute to a win and in his first game against an arguably lesser team he is made to sit on the bench and watch a loss.

Headlines read: Iverson debuts with a loss, not Conley and Griz lose to Kings…

You can’t a guy to give his all and care a lot, but not too much…He is right. I would like to see the context and what was asked of him to make him say “go see my resume…I’m not a 6th man…”

That was touching, when you go home do you cuddle with your A.I starting line up action figure while listening to his rap CD? Its a reason why nobody but the Griz wanted him, this isnt 1998 anymore and your out of your fucking mind.

You call this a “blowup” when you see Mayo and Gay reAdy to duke it out on the bench. He just wants to win and I think he knows how to do it. Slimy media especially from Detroit – leave him alone!

@36

But i don’t think the point is that he isn’t better than Conley or that Conley should be playing more minutes in the crunch. I think the point is AI is supposed to be proving that this is about winning and not about him getting shots up.

See, his complaints aren’t “I could’ve locked Kevin Martin down if i was in the game more” or “Mike Conley isn’t setting up his teammates right, I could do a better job”. He’s complaining about not getting the ball and being able to shoot since the Grizz were going to lose anyway. He doesn’t care about winning. He wants to prove he is still “the Answer”…lmao, it’s a WRAP buddy!!!
