Well I guess that officially makes me old, as I so clearly recall the moment he stepped into this league as a young high-riser and now he's all aged and whatnot. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CV6Y0OcMJ7o
Sad his career had to end this way. I wish he could have taken a lesser role and tried to take one more stab at the playoffs but it was clear he wanted to win on his own terms witch turned out to be a bad choice .
How is that hate? He cares more about himself than anything else, even his career. He refuses to put the team first, ever. He refuses to accept a lesser role, even when his effectiveness has lessened to merit such a role. He still thinks he's the MVP who can take over every game, and refuses to be treated otherwise. It's not hate: it's reality.
That's not a bad idea at all. It could actually help Boston if AI would be kind enough to come off the bench. And I don't even like the guy and never have. But this is a good idea.

It's a bad choice to not go ring chasing?... Now I've heard it all on ISH
If AI truly is retiring instead of going to another garbage team, or a stacked elite team... he gets my respect. He was basically considered a top 5 guard by virtually everyone for his entire career except his rookie season, and his final season (which would be counted as Detroit, not Memphis).
