Allen Iverson is supposedly not returning to the 76ers because he is going to be staying with his ailing daughter. Apparently that also includes hosting a party in Charlotte with Jermaine Dupri (spelling?) Iverson is such an idiot

what are the odds he misses his induction ceremony because he is "caring for his daughter" haha. And by "caring for his daughter" I mean hitting the clubs and sponsoring parties

Found out how big of a tool he was last year and this doesn't surprise me one bit. Hopefully he never plays another game ever.

AI's past (and many others, T-Mac & Starbury come to mind) really makes you wonder if NBA owners are ever going to make a push to get away from guaranteed contracts? --I realize AI isn't really making all that much this year-- You rarely ever see a guy getting paid to stay the heck away from a team. But it happens all the time in the NBA.

AI gave 100 percent every time he was on the court. Off the court maybe 50%. Some of that was due to that fact that he had to keep his body healthy.

^^After watching him last year, I will kindly disagree with you that he gave 100% on the court.

Yeah I'd agree that AI hasn't given 100% in several years

I know I won't remember AI for a little dude that could score like hell. I'll remember the character guy that always thought it was about him.

It keeps getting worse for A.I., his wife filed for divorce yesterday. It's cool though, she let him know early enough so that he could still hit the clubs at a decent hour.
