NBA: Allen Iverson turns down D-League offer

[Reck]

Clowns with beer guts like you have no ing idea about how to hoop...it disgusts me to see fat disgusting clowns like you passing judgements on real ballas...just for the record...AI should have a place in the top 12 list simply by virtue of the refs systematic conspiracy cheating against him...no one ever wants to talk about this or what it means to the record / history books...or his legacy for that matter...I don't know of any other players the refs admitted to openly cheating against. pretty ing sad...

this is one of the few remaining CBS vids left as I'm sure the commish paid people off to remove the video reference:

ing sad indeed.

If you were once one of the biggest superstars in the NBA, why would you go play in the D-league just for a "chance" to get back in the league? He's better off just never playing basketball ever again. MJ comment is off base. It's not like when MJ un-retired to play for the Wizards, he went to play for some CBA team first to try out and let the Wizards see if they wanted him or not.

no but his logic like with coming off the bench (for example) - do you know any league mvp who come off da bench etc... you don't stay the same skill and athleticism your whole life, he's irrational as and still has a massive head. its the same now - he reckons hes still amazing and deserves a starting spot

I was agreeing with you on the Iverson getting ed by the refs thing.

I thought it was pretty obvious.

[Trill Clinton]

good, i'm happy AI turned them down.

he needs to just chill and enjoy being rich and retired.

no need in coming back flabby and sick.

I don't drink.

Sucks.

[DMC]

Never been a beer fan. I have one now and again. I've indulged when out of town but not often on beer. I probably average one drink a month.

[Capt Bringdown]

AI still has money (surprisingly, tbh). Plus he gets a sizable monthly check from Reebok.

I recall my father worked on an insurance case involving a Spur player back in the 80's, that involved disclosure/examination of personal finances.
As I understand it, NBA players get a pension/stipend of some kind based on the number of years in the league. I don't recall at what age it begins.
Curious if that's still the case and/or if my recollections are accurate.
My recollection was that even a journeyman who sticks around in the league for a few years qualifies for some pretty nice (but not bling-bling) pension cash.

Crazy. I love drinking. Don't need to get hammered, but I actually really enjoy beer, wine and liquor.

Only people that enjoy drinking are alcoholics. Are you an alcoholic?

I'm pretty much a lightweight. I dont drink anything other than beers. Any other hard liquor will me up.

What?

[Reck]

What?

I agree, I should've said people who say they "love" drinking.

Bad phrasing. My bad.

[DPG21920]

No, doesn't really help

[Reck]

No, doesn't really help

Sure it does.

People who "love" drinking aren't casual drinkers.

[DPG21920]

That literally makes no sense.

[Reck]

That literally makes no sense.

So you're saying someone that barely drinks alcohol loves drinking because they just love it so much? Because THAT makes no sense.

[DPG21920]

So everyone who is a wine lover/enthusiast is an alcoholic?

[Reck]

So everyone who is a wine lover/enthusiast is an alcoholic?

That really depends on the person. Are you talking collector afficionados or people who buy beers or whatever to drink just because it is another day?

The former would classify as being an alcoholic.

I only asked you that because of the way your post came off as. You made it sound like you're a heavy drinker.

Crazy. I love drinking. Don't need to get hammered, but I actually really enjoy beer, wine and liquor

That just peaked my curiosity.

[DPG21920]

I specifically said I don't get hammered

[Latarian Milton]

even 6'2 shooting guards are struggling to make a livin in the league today where most SGs are 6'5 something. ain't the same as in the 90s when you could be 6'0 something and still be a decent SG

Loving beer, wine and liquor doesn't automatically = heavy drinker. When I think "heavy drinker" I think of a fatty with 30 pack of Bud Light sitting by his recliner downing one after another. I love beer but I usually won't drink much more than a six pack in one sitting(several hours).
