Allen Iverson says he's retiring

[Hammertime]

Why would you hate on one of the greatest basketball players ever? Hate is just uncalled for. People hate AI, Kobe, MJ, Bird etc. its really pointless, it doesn't do anyone any good, just bad, so haters GTFO out here with your pointless hate and let us AI fans celebrate about AI. Why do you think it says APPRECIATION on it?

Like I said, why do you mofos come into threads dissing Iverson in order to defend him? We had a very nice anti-Iverson thread going and it was even stickied until you nut-huggers ruined it.

[Manute for Ever!]

Never seen one game, in which a player chucked for most of it (note the steals, Sixers won because of their defense and limiting Kobe), be used to save the legacy of a player like that one.

Iverson's chucking in the series:
18/41
10/29
12/30
12/30
14/32

Wrong thread, dip****. Log back in as Roundball Rock and try again.

LB is slowly becoming Iverson's Michael Lohan.

I dont have problems with haters. Players like kobe, AI get the hate because they are great players.
If a player is not great or bad, people would just ignore him.

IF AI recieves this much hate, it means one thing. He is one of the top players in the history of the game.

GTFO with the negative BS, I can do the exact same crap for your hero like I just did above. This thread was progressing just fine until this idiot decided to stop in. I guess it's ok for me to hijack your stupid threads like "Kobe sick shots from last night" and rag on Kobe and tear him down just like you are doing to AI when people are trying to appreciate him. You truly are a sad and pathetic individual that seems to enjoy and feed off of negativity. I shudder to imagine what your life must be like.

AI will join the Lakers.

Allen Iverson is, and always will be, a basketball legend. 48/6/5/5 in the Finals on the road.

Really hope he doesn't retire and finds a team. Dude is still lightning quick with the ability to light it up anytime. Be a shame if he ends up retiring this early.

The Bulls!!! Salmons off as the 6th man. 3 guard rotation of Rose, Iverson and Hinrich. Hinrich and Rose can both guard opposing shooting guards. And yes Iverson should START on this team

[phoenix18]

Parade of NO's.

[BigTicket]

If he'd fit anywhere its in Charlotte, they need the scoring, and they already have the size and defense to make up for his shortcomings.

[Maniak]

AI will join the Lakers.

I hope so.

[PistonsFan#21]

A lineup of Chris Paul and Iverson? I can't see it working. Both need the ball to be effective and if they dont have it they will be standing and watching the other do crossovers and pick and rolls. Also having 2 starting guys that are 6 feet tall doesnt help. How will they stop guys like Kobe, Vince, Wade, Joe Johnson, etc?

Mofo's like you ended his career.

Nah, Rose and AI need the ball to be effective. Neither are good jump shooters.

Retirement.
