Taj I can see that but my whole thing is soon as he signed the papers he shouldn’t have had to wait on Conley to be seated. Teams and L ain’t doing him right.

I am saying he should endure with a better attitude more also but dang, he getting raw deals.

TBone… in response to your first post.. I dont think it will..

Poppie… AI ISN’T a 6th Man.. But the thing about this is he’s got to be able to show some humility, especially being in the league this long and going through the ups and downs he’s had. He should know that he’s better than Mike Conley and its only a matter of time he got his start.

Mike, “all these teams??” you mean Memphis and Detroit?? (TWO) He left Denver on pretty good terms. The city still loves him, and he was pretty pumped about the upcoming season with Melo before he got traded to Detroit…

On the real I got to agree with uh huh and I been saying the same stuff myself.

Ain’t no way this dude is a 6th man or dude off the bench.

It’s so many teams that need a good pg or sg and Iverson can fill either roll. Dude is seen as a shoot first guy, and while that may be correct in many aspects he also has been on teams where he had to shoot first just to keep them in it most of the time.

Not only that if you have really followed his college and pro game including even All-Star joints you know dude can pass and gather assist with no prob.

If you gonna make him the star of you team, then build a team around him and run with it. If he isn’t the star he still needs to start and then have some guys around him that are sufficient in being that lead dog.

L.A.
Cleveland
Memphis (dumb if they let dude go)
I wish somehow the Rockets but him and Brooks would be so small.
and some other squads need and could use what A.I. offers and for him to even be in this discussion of leaving the game, or sitting the bench is just stupid. He shouldn’t even be in these type of talks.

He has a lot left to give and he is certainly more of a help than a hinder if used correctly. Mike Vick is the same in a large extent to me. You don’t alter Vick’s game, you enhance it by creating based off it and around it.

Been an A.I. supporter and will continue to be regardless.

Teams, the NBA and people shouldn’t give up on dude.

Trade him where? EVERY team had a chance to sign him on the cheap, $3 million to the Griz… Aint gonna be anybody wanting to take him on, especially with this diva attitude of his. He has basically labeled himself uncoachable and unwilling to change his game in any way, shape or form.

It’s not about can AI play? It is about can AI play in OUR sytem. Is he willing to take on a role that may/may not involve starting and lots of minutes. Can he thrive without the ball and scoring tons of points? And he has shown nothing to say he can, which is why other guys are getting jobs and he had to take some crap offer from Memphis.

It is a sad day, as I truly did love watching someone my size throw himself around with wreckless abandon and score like no other. But there comes a time when we all face Father Time, and most of dont like what he has to say. Loved your heart AI, it is the attitude I can do without.

A.I. is one of the greatest players in the past decade, really he cannot end his career like this, I say find someway to put him somewhere where he can actually happy, guaranteed there’s a fit somewhere..

people gave him chance, and then he started to act like a drama queen. he is paid to play what coach tells him to play. and i can’t remeber that i’ve read that memphis promised iverson that he will start. it’s not like they tricked him. i always respected ai for his heart, but he needs to accept that he’s not above the game, and that he can’t behave like he’s 10 years old.
