Seems like a big fat waste of time if a key talking point at a NBA coaches meeting is trying to figure out which team wants to throw good money on a bad contract just so Iverson can retire on a NBA roster. Who exactly forced Iverson to go play in Turkey anyway?

On one hand, he came in and totally wrecked the Bobcats with trades. On the other hand, that got the Bobcats to their only Playoff appearance.

I keep thinking that a pre-Larry Brown Bobcats roster would be a 5th or 6th seed today in the East.

no doubt. richardson and dudley might not be stars, but are very quality players in this league. sure we would have been looking for a PF until thomas arrived, but I say okafor, tyrus, wallace, richardson, felton is a heck of a lineup. you gotta assume that jackson would not even be here, since diaw and bell were part of the richardson trade, along with vlad rad.

It’s his own damn fault for having such an inflated ego. He has to realize you can’t always be the center of attention. Players on the bench are part of the team too, you know? He had a good opportunity to serve as a veteran mentor, but instead he just wanted to continue hogging the spotlight and starting, regardless of what team he was on.

Both the Grizzlies and the Sixers gave him an extra chance, and he blew it both times. I can’t fathom how anyone, including Larry Brown, would even want to approach Iverson after all the recent mess he’s caused. I mean, I know Iverson and Brown have a special relation, but come on.
