Sixers actually got better when A.I. left...

Noway sixers got worse. He's the only reason people show up to see them play. Still the best player on that team by far

uh what? Iguoudala is a far better player at this stage. I don't think this has a huge impact on how good a team they will be, but yes it will put butts in the seats which is the only goal of the organization this year anyway.

Under on that prop

Won't go nuts on that 1st prop but will be smashing it against Detroit. Not sure why the goal is only to butts in the seats? Sixers make a playoff run this year with AI. Bottom of the east is a joke, no reason they can't slip into a 7 or 8 seed

I really think AI will fit like glue on this Sixers team and look forward to making some easy money as the press continues to berate/underestimate the man.

yep we needed ai back i really never even watched a game since he left

What if... and stay with me here... if his time off...

What if AI was visited by the three spirits of basketball's past, present, and future (represented by Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and Lebron James, Junior (circa 2027)), and was shown the error of his ways in a very Charles Dickens-esque fashion, teaching him a lesson about being an egotistical douchebag by showing him visions of himself in the not-too-distant future working a gig out of a dingy trailer parked outside the NBA all-star game each year, where fans can come up to him and verbally abuse him for 30 seconds before dropping him in a dunk tank, all for the low price of 29.99 per person.

And then, waking up from this experience, he realized that it was not too late to change his fate, and that he could take the opportunity the Sixers are giving him to actually contribute in a positive way to an NBA franchise for the first time in a while, thus ending his career with a degree of class that previously would have conflicted with his primary goal of telling every person he met that he was better than them.

Or maybe he'll punch a courtside fan in the face in the first quarter of his first game back...
