But is that bad? No, because Williams is a worse point guard than AI is.
AI gives the Sixers firepower that they are lacking.
Plus he will get fans to turn out, helping the team survive this season, as well as helping the team in the future financially.
Move makes a lot of sense for the Sixers, so long as they start and play AI.
Eddie Jordan loves Lou. Holiday and Willie Green are gonna get benched/get less minutes.

Well i didnt like AI before but now im starting to respect him. I mean in the conference he really was sorry I could see in his eyes. This time no faked emotions just pure regret of what bad he has done during his career. This time I want him to comeback and be succesful. Can't wait to see HOW and HOW GOOD he will perform.

Im not saying because he got so touchy and apologized I will start to like him but can give him a chance. Il look at a few sixers games and decide if he will go back to his old ways fine then he will get back to my NBA hate list.

I'm happy for AI, as a person.
He seems to have finally accepted that he can't always just do things the way he wants just because hes Allen Iverson. At some point, we all have to realize that no matter how big a name one is, you still have to have some type of respect for self and others and know its not always about, "ME". Its about you and everyone else involved and working together as a unit.
