Allen Iverson... one of the greatest guards to play the game of basketball, is considering retirement. I thought i should write on this because I don't think that's the Right decision, we all know that Allen Iverson has a couple of more years in the game..... at least to win a CHAMPIONSHIP. Yeah he's retiring with out ever feeling what it means to be a champion. I could understand why he is thinking bout retiring, you don't know let me tell you what happened...Allen Iverson was at his peak when he played for Philadelphia 76ers, and he carried his team to the NBA FINALS 2001 but they lost. After that he got traded to the Denver nuggets where he teamed up with Carmelo Anthony, but this time Allen wasn't the star of the team anymore so we started seeing him get benched more often. Then he was traded to the Detroit Pistons, this is where things started to get crazy for the star when he suffered an injury, and after that he wasn't starting. After all these trades i would want to retire too. i don't want to keep moving place to place because of work. Soon after he was traded to the Grizzles where he signed a one year contract, but now Allen Iverson is a Free Agent. The New york Knicks were very interested in the all-star, but after a weekend of thought they decided not to pick him up and their excuse is " if we draft Allen we would have to cut the playing time of our young stars". I think the Knicks need AI the way their playing this season they need the help.
It's a little strange how all of a sudden he wants to retire from the NBA. I think this another Publicity stunt too, because now that Allen Iverson wasn't a star player like he used to his star light has dimmed down ALOT, so I'm assuming that he just brought up retirement so he could get his name back on the Headlines. That's why I'm saying he will return back to the League and bust more Ass......
