Allen Iverson and his team are not seeing eye to eye right now, so they allowed him to take a leave of absence in order to clear his mind and handle a personal family matter.
Is A.I. Losing his Game?!?!
According to this group of guys, they see A.I.’s future ending in retirement, real quick. In a press conference the other day, A.I. told a reporter:
I’m not a reserve basketball player. I’ve never been a reserve all my life and I’m not going to start looking at myself as a reserve.
Iverson signed a year contract with the Memphis Grizzlies for $3 million. The season just started during the last week of October and the Grizzlies are already considering waiving his contract and taking a $3 million loss in order to salvage the team that they already have.
Damn, A.I…. you’re not getting any younger and no one wants you on their team. We just hope you have invested your money the right way so we won’t hear of you going into foreclosure.

He got issues. If no other team wants him, he needs help.

AI has been wanting out for a lonnnnnnng time. I think that his look/ all those gangsta/pyscho looking tats and his cornrows may have a lot to do with it. Can’t you see this dude sauntering around in some of those blue or black courdoroy house shoes that hood dudes (and their triffling girls sometimes) love to wear– even tho he has millions of dollars.
Besides it not being a good look usually that hood mentality accompanies all that and team owners/mgmt will deal with some of the b.s. but if you can avoid the problems… there it is.
Good luck AI… change you swag up some, homie!

It seems like he changes teams every year now. I know he left Philly and went to Denver, and then somewhere else. After that I lose count.

Yes, Allen is nice looking, but a hot mess. Lord knows he’s stuck that old pole into so many holes, it’s probably diseased. Some of ya’ll would still let him pop you, huh? LMAO!

One of the more disappointing careers in the NBA. So much heart, so much talent, but such a poor fit in system-heavy NBA play. He came along too late. He probably would have thrived in the seventies, when the stakes in the NBA were much lower than they are for today’s big global sports brand.
One of the many lost man-children of the permanent black undercl*****, rising like a rocket and landing just where he started.
Honest Truth
11/11/09, 21:27:pm
He has too much pride and lacks character! He vanished on the Pistons and is doing the same thing in Memphis. He still thinks he’s a franchise player, but it’s transition time! His attitude is the worst, who really needs a leave of absence from playing a f*ckn game. Try life as the rest of us, you fairy tale f*ckin up piece a sh*t.
PS Quit *****in and man up! Braids on a man is suspect! Always has been and always will be.

He needs to realize that he’s over the hill of his career. It happens to every star. He’s still a good player, but he is not franchise. *****ody is really looking for a me-first guard who is not the same player he was years back to start a game. That’s like 8 for 30 from the floor every night with 5 *****ists tops. And he’s got an attitude. No thanks. Swallow that 3 mil, Memphis. Ya’ll don’t need him.

11/12/09, 10:10:am
How do you justify him coming off the bench for that sorry ***** team. He is shooting over 50%. They continue to lose and you want him to be good with that. Ask, even at his age, who wants to guard him.NUFF SAID. A.I. you can still play the game at the top level,best of luck my brother.
