memphis is aleady tired of iverson

[goldengoat]

he's complaining about coming off the bench. the coach is probably pissed he has to put up with this. if iverson's attitude doesn't change then this is the last contract he'll ever get in the NBA.

guy is a cancer at this point.

[tblues2005]

That guy is just as bad as Terrell Owens is in football.

[Chi_archie]

will be glad when he is out of the NBA


we're talking about Practice

[Mudcat]

Too bad there is just no way to see this kind of behavior coming.

[poker_dummy101]

I'm a fan of Iverson. I don't like practice either.

[daggerkobe]

Might as well play him if ur paying him $3.5M.

Plus Mike Conley Jr has been a complete bust.

[jgiun1]

Always was a cancer........always will be........hated him his whole career

[marabdl86]

why do you think Denver and detroit got rid of him? He was worth the headaches when he was in his prime. Now he's all talk with no substance. He won't be in the NBA much longer

[jcygts6]

they should trade him to the warriors so we can use him!

[ztballer]

Iverson coming off the bench...

retire while you're still ontop still getting touches of the ball.

[shortys92]

I like memphis to cover tonight tho

Might as well play him if ur paying him $3.5M.

Bingo. Lots of haters here, guy has had a great career though. Don't confuse attitude problems for lack of stats. Memphis wasn't gonna be in the playoffs anyway, but AI puts people in the seats and can still drop 20+ points per game.

I have clippers -4 hope not

[Machine Choice]

I have clippers -4 hope not

Me too. Go Clippers.

[BGS 9.5]

After his shitty performance last year, he should be glad he has a job. I like the guy, but his train has come and gone in the NBA....

[jjgold]

Guys is one of the biggest losers ever, sure he carried a few teams deep into playoffs but overall a great player but a cancer on any team he played for.

[Plu$Money]

he's left the team for "personal reasons" already...

[Hotdiggity11]

A frustrated Allen Iverson(notes) has departed the Memphis Grizzlies and is not expected to return any time soon, if at all, a source close to Yahoo! Sports said today. The source said Iverson is going back to Atlanta, his offseason home, to clear his head and is extremely unhappy about the lack of communication with coach Lionel Hollins over his playing time and reserve role in three games since returning from an injury. Hollins has told reporters he’d prefer to focus on the team than his dispute with Iverson.
Even so, other sources close to the Grizzlies suggest Iverson has not asked to be waived and that his departure is for personal reasons and that a timetable for his return is unknown.


The story of his depature was first reported by the Memphis Commerical Appeal which stated that Iverson’s decision to take a leave of absence was made after meeting with owner Michael Heisley on Saturday in Memphis.
