Allen Iverson

The "Answer" as we know him is playing Professional basketball in Turkey this season. Not his first choice of course but it will have to do if he wants to play the game of basketball right now. A multiple time All Star and one of the best players to EVER touch a basketball playing in Turkey? Some say the down fall of A.I, I say fall and rise of a legend. If you know me I'm a huge Allen Iverson fan, from the first time I seen him ball at Georgetown University till his time with Memphis. What made me a fan of him was the way he played the game. So tough and hard nosed and at his size no one has done it better. When I was growing up, everybody was a fan of 1 of 3 people. Kobe Bryant, Tracy McGrady or Vince Carter. Me, (laugh) i went with a guy who most had known of but refused to get behind because of his "ghetto" attitude. Hell the NBA will never admit it but they came up with a dress code because AI would come to a press conference with a du-rag and a fitted and about 5 chains on his neck. I checked out youtube to see how he's been playing and I look at my home team, the Cavs and ask myself one question..........Are these 15 player better then Allen Iverson? NO! The thing that is keeping AI and the NBA from reuniting is his attitude. The unwillingness to accept the back up role. And if you asked me to sit behind Mike Conley I'd be upset as well. Iverson would be a great sixth man for any contending team in te NBA. Im sure his time in Turkey has humbled him to work harder if he wants to get back in the NBA. As long as Ron Artest has a place in the league AI still has a chance..........
