Allen Iverson Sent Packing With a Quickness For Calling The Coach A “Dumb F___”

Posted on November 17th, 2009 - By Bossip Staff

The actual reason for Allen Iverson’s suspension and expulsion, as of yesterday, is because he was yelling out at the coach during a bus ride home from L.A.:

During Allen Iverson’s final days in Memphis, the Grizzlies’ owner shouldn’t have had to sit and listen to A.I.’s voice bellowing in the back of the bus. On his way out of the Staples Center one week ago, on his way out of the NBA, Iverson made sure his bosses could hear him in the front. Lionel Hollins let it go, the way the coaches in Philadelphia once did, too.

Just let A.I. rip, let him go. Sources say Iverson started to speak louder and louder about how he had played for one dumb bleeping coach in Detroit a year ago, and now had come to play for another dumb bleeping coach in Memphis. He never dared speak this way on the Detroit Pistons’ bus because he feared team president Joe Dumars and respected the championship players on board.

Is this guy on something?

    I think AI was really mad that he wasn’t starting over Conley when Conley is garbage.

    @ 2dimplzs- heh wow cant say anything dead on the money there…his stats even when he did play were terrible not even worth the starting lineup

  • heygurrrl!

    @2dimplz

    LMAO!!! So true. Just another spoiled athlete that Godt too much money to ever remember what it was like to not have any. WHateva happening to just playing ball. Not to say a player wont eva have issues with the coach/team, but every coach…every team!

    I am not a sports fanatic, but he NEVA won a championship did he?

    I thought it was just me. This article is so choppy, in its wording and punctuation. A poor attempt at style is what we are seeing… I think.

    @seeker

    I agree, I had to read it like 5 times and it still dont make since

    How the hell is any tattoos going to scare any kid.. f outta here!!

  • Court!

    He should have never left Philly!

  • TheFew

    All of the money in the world can’t buy class. The NBA created the mess called “A.I.” The sad thing is that b/c of players like this many of these young brothers don’t appreciated their blessings. It can all be taken away; just ask Antoine Walker.

  • pynklyzurd14

    All I know is, regardless if A.I. was right or wrong about playing for a “dumba.s.s,” you don’t ever bite the hand that feeds you…

  • pynklyzurd14

    Court!

    He should have never left Philly!

    I hear that!!! XD

  • HoneySuckleGirl (KEEP ME NEAR THE CROSS…LOL)

    A.I. need to chill.

  • Kool Breeze

    Ya had it all AI..but, just like all the other selfish and immature athelete’s who think there bigger than the game and their team..adios amigos and good riddance.

  • Butterscotch™

    @2dimplzs

    I agree with everything you said. I’d also add that when someone else signs your pay check, you can not say and do as you please. Seems like common sense to me, but I guess some folks don’t even have that.

  • Cj

    Frustration. Unfortunately, some really good talent never wins a championship. No need to bust off on the coach, he aint on the floor. Hope Allen has made some good investments cause it’s bout a wrap for him.

  • KeepNit2Real

    He should have never left Philly!

    _______________________________________________

    It wasn’t Allen’s fault he left Philly. Blame the folks who let Pat Croche go from his stint there. That was the dude who kepy AI in Philly….and trust, he had AI’s back more than some cats on the block do!

    Ya’ll remember he held it down for AI…stop the jokes.

    Allen is just frustrated and ready to leave the game on the real. It ain’t like he broke. He just tired of being on squads who doesn’t know what it takes to win…starting with Larry Brown his ex-coach who screamed how lucky they were to beat LA at home!!!

    Allen been mad at coaches ever since. He regards them as wussies…and so do I.

    I’d be doing the same thing if I were in his shoes

  • OK, AND??

    WHATEVA!

    He’s still a great player no matter what and THE SEXIEST TO PICK UP A BASKETBALL.

    Allen keep ya head up baby! They been after you since day one

  • charmaine

    It’s sad how some people believe everything they read. Leave Allen alone. Gossip sites twist stories to get you to click on the article…

  • rIPPA

    A.I. FOR LIFE!!!

  • champhf

    i love AI but his window is closing in on him…he is realizing he is not going to win a ring…he is still great o me. look at how many of the best players ever…. never got a ring…AI good luck and sorry AI but …you are not a starter anymore…ur an older player and too many hungery kids entered the game now.

  • champhf

    AI is a street ledgend….he can play agains any of the greatest players and win..the problem was never AI..it was the people they surounded him with.

  • seriously?

    he got sent packing because he has no work ethic.

  • WordtotheWise

    2dimplzs, I cosign and concur 100%.

    It’s a shame that no matter how foolish people behave, they will always have defenders. SMH at foolishness.

    AI needs to grow the h.e.l.l. You are a father and supposed to be an example to your children. Man up! I feel for Twanna. I’m sure she’s trying to be the faithful, dutiful wife, and hold the children down. Too bad that she married a moron. Sorry to AI stans, but it’s the truth.

    That is all.

  • http://bossip.com This some Shhh….

    AI better be careful. These southern cats don’t play about gambling debts. You may end up floating in the river.

  • Play Nice

    Message to AI

    I have loved you since Georgetown.
    I memorized your stats, studied your play so I could defend you up and down when you were here in Detroit.
    I overlooked your childish ways and loved you anyway.

    Why are you making it so damn hard for me?

    Why?? **banging my head against my desk**

  • Darwin

    Another idiot athlete that earn millions without staying professional at the same time. If you’re upset about your superiors, wait until you get home and vent. Discipline yourself AI. What a dummy.

    R.kelly must have wrote this

  • BYRON

    A.I. AIN’T NO DIFFERENT THAN STEPHON. CANCERS ON A TEAM. WILL NEVER BE CHAMPIONS BECAUSE IT’S ALL ABOUT THEM AND NOT THE TEAM. LOOK HOW MUCH BETTER DENVER GOT WHEN THEY GAVE A.I. THE BOOT…

  • Silent Swagg

    lol @ Dumb F_k

  • Greg

    LOL at this story do you think AI is the only one talking on a team bus or venting his frustrations, but at the end of the day this teams failure would have been blamed squarly on Allen Iverson, and unless he’s starting thats not something he should settle for, AI behavior in philly was mostly becuase he was the whole team for 7 of the 10 seasons he was here, Grant Hill aint even coming off the bench why should He.

  • …*MOcarsMOclothesMOjewelsMOdoe*…

    i think besides his recent injuries,AI is still a good player.a team like maimi could use AI (cause d-wayde needs help).BUT,AI has a bad attitude.and i dont care who you are,a bad attitude is not gonna get you no where in life.(this thread,my point exactly)

  • abeille

    He’ll be broke in a few years and he’ll wish he was working for a “dumb f@ck” coach.

  • http://LOVINGME.COM shanny

    Leave A.I alone…im still a A.I fan…do you boo!! There will always be haters!! The world would not be right with out them!

  • memchee

    …..because he was so talented in philly; he was never made to excercise the discipline needed for longevity in pro sports.

    Now he’s self-destructing as they tend to do.

  • Gimmeabreak 78

    1)Men over 30 still wearing cornrows are cartoon characters that should never be taken seriously.

    2)Men who have so many tattoos that their bodies look like grafitti on a subway in Harlem should never be taken seriously.

    3)Men who use phrases like “Practice? We talkin’ ’bout practice?” should never be taken seriously.

    Way to be a 35 year-old toddler, AI.

  • opa-locka

    still a great player, he can play on any team out there……keep your head up all star.

    I’M HAPPY I WON’T B SEEING THOSE NAPPY AZZ BRAIDS ANY MORE!!!

  • KOutlawNo1

    @satch
    Overrated?? GTFOH!!

    He still is better than 80% of the guards in the league and he can still pour in 25 a night. So, he still has STARTER talent. But, he just needs to accept coming off the bench so the younger cats can grow. I didn’t understand why he went to Memphis in the 1st place. He should’ve went to a contender and accepted a secondary rule.

  • Redemption

    PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! I’M SAYING…PRACTICE!

  • 1TruDiva w/the PlatinumVocals—Pimpin, Platinum style!!! J-Hud’s concert was OFF THE MEAT RACK!!!!!!!!!

    Instead of yelling out at the coach, he should be yelling at his daughter for posting those pictures of herself on MySpace.

  • LadyJNewYork

    Huh!! Y’all better recognize if “Mama” Iverson find out y’all been dissing her “baby” she gonna get in that azz, LOL……..AI is done his “funky attitude when he didn’t go to practice saying “he don’t need to practice”, I lost respect for him then….Wish him well, hopefully he “grows up” and be okay after the NBA.

  • satch
