POS Player???? Are you kidding? Iverson is one of my favorite players of all time. I'll be the first to admit that in the past he needed an attitude adjustment. However this is a guy who gave it everything he had whenever he played in a basketball game. Not Practice haha. His body has to be hurting by now, I've never seen a guy him as much effort as him early on. How many times do you think he's been knocked to the floor during a game? He's got my respect.
Iverson was one of my favorites too. He should just retire though. His game just isn't suited to be a complimentary player. He has lost a step of two which prevents him from being the go to guy.
His situation reminds me of all the running backs being cut in the NFL. Lose a step or two without it even being totally obvious and you are pretty much done. For players who rely on athletic ability the edge is so small over the average professionals. Age or injury can turn a superstar into a role player in no time.
