How has iverson lost a step I dont see it! Detroit was and is still a train wreck. he played WELL in Denver, MEMPHIS is trash and he shouldn’t be coming off the bench…they asked him the question and he responded. I have never been a HUGE AI fan but for people to trash him is insane…but in few seasons they will do the same to LeBron James…

Iverson put his body on the line for his stats, not his team.

He could have been the modern day Isiah Thomas.

Iverson haters, please! The kid can ball. Iverson with a step slower is still a lot better than half the players in the L. Still. Kid was dropping classic games under 12 months ago…and now he’s washed up? Please!

As for his legacy, he took his team to the playoffs many times and went real deep one year. This doesn’t happen with the kind of player these comments suggest. He was an elite player who maintained his status in the L for over a decade. The guy had his problems, but the same can be said of most punks in the L…yet most of these tend to disappear after a few years – not AI.

The bottom line is that AI put his body on the line more than any other player this L has ever seen and showed the world that this game can be ruled by dudes under 6’6. That’s worth an MVP and a HOF. Stop hatin.

@#2 RA
Did this muthafucka actually say Iverson was a better defender than John Stockton? John Stockton son? STOCKTON? You mean the all-time steals leader and 5X’s all-defensive team Stockton?

Is that you Ezail<–(Iverson’s middle name)? uh I mean Allen Iverson. No way Ezail can f^k with Johnny Stock’s game. You’re an idiot, go kill yourself.

@ 2
HOLY SHIT
A.I has better D then Stockton?
Cancel your NBA tv channel quickly, cuase you have lost the left side of your brain.. Not to mention your comparing him to Point Guards.. A.I was listed at 2 GUARD, until it came time to make room for him on the all star team.

Seeing the man who inspired an entire generation of ball players – ball players who don’t care about fundamentals (see, Iverson, for all his skill, can’t go left and shoot left), won’t make a pass that leads to an assist, won’t defend, etc.

i hope he gets to join a team and cause more drama like he has, his entire career.

I love this, all the fans get there fairwell letters together and pretend like you watched greatness lol..
Stop the madness, i understand if you like his talent, i agree he had alot of talent, he could of been one of the greastest POINT GUARDS ever. Insted he decided to become a horrible point guard who shot the ball too much and ran any player with talent or that posed a threat to his scoring off his team. For every 30 point game he put up he allowed 30 right back on his head, if not 40. Go check a stat line on how many games his teams won when A.I had 10 assits in a game. He is a glorified Micheal Adams with tatts and braids.

Here, I went ahead and corrected a line in your article:

“Seeing the man who inspired an entire generation of BAD ball players WHO HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO PASS OR PLAY AS A TEAMMATE, CARRY THE BALL CONSISTENTLY AND WEAR CORNROWS EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE 30 YEARS OLD”

I put my additions in CAPS.

You can thank me by sending me a pair of those shoes.

Trash Talk
Browns nose tackle Shaun Rogers talking to media about LeBron James hypothetically playing football for the Browns:

Shaun: “I have mixed emotions about that. A great athlete? Yes. A football player? No…Yeah LeBron, I said it…I just don’t think you can step off the basketball court…and just play football.”

People say he’s hall of fame and numbers wise I agree. But something tells me with the stuff that’s been going on he may not make it for political reasons similar to Dennis Rodman. Think about it the tattoos, the controversy is very similar to the worm.

On another note what’s the spread on Iverson still making the allstar game this year? LOL
