Allen Iverson Retiring?!?!

[sinac1994]

yo just heard a.i is attempting an NBA comeback

[TMenser1]

you black bro

[golftrailsucks]

WHY DONT YOU TALK ABOUT HOW I DID YOUR MOTHER LAST NIGHT?

[theGWOK]

o.j. mayo fuckin blows. thats why they signed him last yr

[hatian123]

Once a star player for the Sixers, but now is just a bum who needs to retire.

[hatian123]

He should go to China..

[Phaimouz]

whats a dumbass allen iverson is the 2nd greatest nba player ever behind jordan tired of lame hatin and disrespectin him

[BronxBoii15]

IM TIRED OF HEARING THIS BULLSHYT, HES NOT A FUCKING SIXTH MAN I DNT GIVE A FUCK HOW OLD HE GETS HES NOT NO BENTCH PLAYER, ITS THE FUCK ANSWER YU BITCHES LOOK AT HIS RESUME

[nyran125]

Iverson still never had a good team , your right. Hes just playing for the money. The Billups getting traded for Iverson was a crazy decision in the first place. Iverson never realyl was a team player. So even if he had a good team around him i dont think it woud help.

[PROG4PROGamers]

lol he said vasaline

[nicenow25]

yo, what you saying has pure accuracy in it. But i think iverson has too much pride to retire unless he sees that its not worth it. In addition, he has the hamstring and back injury those alone hinders his play and at his height he needs all the strength and confidence he can sustain so retiring is the best option as he will just be embarrassing himself like he has this season.

P.S. kudos for the vaseline plug lol well timed!

[drhnotorious]

it looks like allen iverson's career is just about over. kind of a sad end to what will be a hall-of-fame career. he's a guy who i felt not everyone really appreciated. 1 thing ill always remember bout a.i. is this quote he said in a magazine article years and years ago. "there are a thousand people that like allen iverson and there are a million people that hate allen iverson"

[Younggunzjr]

A.I should have never come off the bench on the grizzlies. A.I is the best on that team.

[bottlepop62]

Everyone can compare AI to kobe, and compare who's better, people can stay AI is overrated and just a seat filer, but no on can denie the fact that throughout AI 13 year career he cant be mention with the best

[erocktheartist]

ah this iverson retiring and all this stuff is giving me a major head ache. i dont know what to say now.

[donfurious456]

as a pistons fan i gotta say that joe dumars done fucked up if he never woulda traded chauncey for a.i. we would still hav a reputation as bein one of the elite teams a.i. really didnt do SHIT for us especially when the plays came around i bet u his so called INJURIES werent even that serious i think that now in this stage of his career he has become a lil bit selfish but i can understand him wanting to win tho

[westplayer03]

A.I. is a great player but come on his not a bench player even at this stage in his career

[chilikongkwoila]

A.I "SHOULD NOT" COME OFF THE BENCH!!

[gulinp]

without gasol, or before shaq the kobe would be in the same situation as iverson now. it's a team sport BUT you can't win ring without 2 or 3 great individual player.

[rareplayer]

Good video dude! Dont listen to these idiots here. If a team gives u a role to come off the bench and you say no and leave, u are a selfish ball player. I could careless how talented u r or what ur basketball resume is. Jason Terry never biiitch, he comes in the game average 20pts. Manu for the Spurs, samething, 20 per game. Players like Allen takes being a selfish player to another level. You cant compare LeBron to AI, Lebron isnt even in his prime. get a clue!!! Stop hugging Iverson's nuts.

[ChotoAlvi]

y don't u faggot haters stfu

I don't see ur ppl playin in the NBA

hop off his dick posers

[Jarekkowalewski]

no questioning he had heart but he was anti-team in a team sport, went to memphis to put up 30, they didnt let him, so long

[iversonfansdee]

He's one of the best guys, when you're talking guys 6-foot and under, to play the game of basketball. What he's done individually -- he played injured, he played hard every single night..

and a fucking youtube star start to judge A.I.

Allen Iverson is a living legend

go fuckyourself!

[nothingonthis]

a lotta players are like that, playing injured and playing hard every night...dumbass

[FRESHCALLER123]

@iversonfansdee what hes done individually ...............but never a team player hes selfish

[iversonfansdee]

WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE A.I.

FUCK U!

[FRESHCALLER123]

@iversonfansdee im jusging him based on the actions he took durin his lifetime

[gulinp]

this guy is new yourk knick fan? go pray for 10 wins this season.... maaan, iverson is with his 34 years still better then whole knick. tunders, kings and yearsy team...and better then 99% players in nba

[FRESHCALLER123]

@gulinp better individually but basketball is a team sport

[sjbiga]

YES! my man here hit thenail directly on the head..good vid brother

[antking1117]

fuckkkkkkkked thats gay. pissed off .

[AvEryBadApPLe]

z-bo it a watered down version of a brokedown dc.

[J1stream]

Hold yo stupid ass up fist off Allen is one of the most valuable players to ever hit the court and he fa damn sho don't need to be coming off the bench with one of the lamest ass teams in the fuckin NBA!!!!!!

[mistanderson]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. You should never make a vid again. Because you sound like shit. AI is still the best. NBA is shitting on him.

[heidegger1243]

if AI is the best then why did the nuggets get so much better after trading him for billups?

dude was sick offensively but even back when he was destroying people on that end everything he gave you offensively you'd lose on defense

[mistanderson]

@heidegger1243 Bruh the whole team was childish before AI came. They had a solid good point guard in Andre Miller and still didn't do nothing. Plus lets not forget that Nene was hurt, Chris Anderson wasn't there, Melo was suspended when AI came, so AI took the team. If Billiups would've came in that same situation, Denver wouldn't be in the West Conf Finals. Plus Melo improve better after the Redeem Team, because Kobe taught how to be a defender.

[heidegger1243]

these are good points but i think chauncey taught the whole team how to play defense well also

chauncey rules. i hated the pistons but chauncey and rip were fucking great

[mistanderson]

Yeah AI didn't know alot about defending because he spend his whole career scoring. Kobe didn't know nothing about defending until Phil came, and he still didn't got better in it until Phil came back to him the second time. Look at T-Mac. He was a defender in TO but when he got to Orlando and had to do alot of scoring his defending focus fall.

[FRESHCALLER123]

@mistanderson when it comes to defensive tasks kobe steps up ..........allen iverson would never step only to chuck up 40 shots a game

[nothingonthis]

ai sucks

[Guerrillachop]

he sucks so badly yet he's 5th in all time scoring averages with 27 pts per game as a career average, look up his statistics the man is a hall of famer, he still got it

[J1stream]

Shut Up B1tch!!!!!

[nothingonthis]

iverson is the cockiest fag in the nba. no rings to back his shit up. fuck u! try talkin bout individual shit hes doin but in the end hes still a loser.

[jubogs]

@nothingonthis shut the fuk up

[nothingonthis]

no...rings...

[jubogs]

and u aint got shit

[nothingonthis]

whos in the fuckin nba (o sorry, was) and whos dick r u riding right now???  ya i aint got shit cuz...uh..not in the nba....fuckin dumb bitch

[jubogs]

aim a bitch like your mother

[mistanderson]

@nothingonthis U suck lol. future hall of famer, MVP, 2time All Star MVP, several times scoring champ. Yeah buddy you need help.

[nothingonthis]

worst attitude in the nba

[mistanderson]

@nothingonthis I guess you another media follower cornball.

[FEAR1818]

he did retire u poser g

[shutthefucktube]

I wanna hit you Up on the B ball court!!!!!!!

[bingleyson]

in his position right now, he better retire if he ain't gonna do what's right for a team and for the fans..no offense to AI fans, im a fan too, he still got game but he ain't got compassion for the game itself anymore..

[RYANMOW]

if allen never left denver i think he wouldnt be at this situation at all.

[supernubish]

I agree.. He wanted a title that bad, that he switched teams to the pistons. He had to know he wasn't gonna get the minutes he had over at denver!? AI in denver was still smokin...

I hope he returns and gets a bit of the glory back he deserves, but unfortunaly, I doubt it ...

[FRESHCALLER123]

he didnt ask for a trade dumbasss the denver nuggets saw allen iverson was to selfish and old and only competed with melo for stats so they kept melo which was young and could score in bunches and brought in a winner team player chauncey and is takin the nuggets far

[supernubish]

watch the mouth fool, where in my comment did it say he asked for a trade? learn to fucking read, and your information is completely made up, you don't know this, not at all. I'm not a crazy iverson fan, cause Iverson is by far my favorite player in the league, Denvers team is better now then it was when Iverson was there, regardless of iverson or chauncey. Stick with the facts, and dont comment me by putting words in my mouth, thanks

[FRESHCALLER123]

well you said he switched teams like he did it on his own maybe i misinterpret ur comment

[supernubish]

i was in a bad mood when I wrote that, glad we got it sorted out anyway

[crsj754]

That's not fair J. I was thinking about this the other day... name five MVP future hall of famers that came off the bench at the end of their careers. If the "great" MJ would have said that everyone would be on his side. He can start on several teams in the NBA.

[gwillyfromphilly]

Allen Iverson is so underrated as a player. I've fell like the NBA never gave him the same respect that other superstars have gotten, like Kobe Bryant and Lebron James for example.

[FRESHCALLER123]

kobe bryant has been with the lakers with him so long and winnin titles thats why he gets respect ......kobe is still valuable any team would pick him up if he was a free agent because he DOES make his team mates better.....ass far ass lebron he is young and owns the nba right now he better win a title before he gets old and ends up like allen iverson only left with stats that no one cares about

[FRESHCALLER123]

hes too overrated bad defender, bad shooter, averages that many points because he took almost 40 shots, never made his team better he was just hype and overrated

[gwillyfromphilly]

Your just a Allen Iverson hater!

[FRESHCALLER123]

@gwillyfromphilly not a hater just state the truth ..............u ride the canswer to hard

[gwillyfromphilly]

No, you just need to except that fact that he is one of the best players of this era.That why he is going to be a first ballot "Hall Of Famer". Anyone who denies that is just a fucking hater. What you need to do is get off my nutts about it and accept the facts.

[FRESHCALLER123]

@gwillyfromphilly hes an overrated and popular player thats all

[Only1059]

Yo. what's your Punk Name Dude!

You Just talk to Much. why you dont go to Sesaam Street Program? So. i supposed to be bench and see my Team Lose? Conley for AI? come on man. Like a say You Stupid american Boy, Yeah you. You'll say same shit over Lebron James over more 2 years if james not Win a Tittle. so SHUT UP!!.as Player i'll be Mad to. i can do some better 4 my team and coach just dont see that. Come on man

if Memphis so Good team is why they not Win a Games? AI is not there anymore.

[FRESHCALLER123]

memphis wants to develop conley for the future allen iverson isnt the future he leave in 2-3 yrs then when he leaves memphis gonna have to re build again so whats the point?

[LLCoolJJJJabari]

Allen need to go. I mean, he's not that damn good anymore

[jayevil187]

and 2001 76ers won 56games that year,so i wont call that a bad team.

[jayevil187]

last time we saw a.i as a starter he avg

27.1 ppg and 7assist just two seasons ago,and no disrespect to mike coley but there no way in hell he should be starting over a.i,and if you going to have a.i come off the bench atleast give him 25-30mins.

[Sandi0007]

i agree with you

[DonV310]

Growin up in Virginia, I've loved and hated A.I. his entire career. I've watched him play since I was 3 or 4 years old. He's a dick in person but on the court he feels like he's at home. I remember he came in 7 eleven and knocked shit off the shelves cause he didn't have his ID to buy alcohol. A.I. is really a douchenugget to the kids too.

[mvonwahlde]

Iverson needs the ball, emotionally.

Iverson's game needs the ball too.

Iverson's relatively old and beat up.

Iverson's not a reliable defender.

Iverson doesn't draw teammates into the offense.

After saying all these critical things . . .

The is always a stupid, gullible NBA GM out there!

AI to the NEW YORK KNICKS!! They DESERVE him!!

[philanderadriaan]

Grizzlies signed Iverson because the sky is blue.

[beyourselfdummy]

People may not agree with what you're saying in your video but I'm here to tell you I agree with everything you've said. It would suck if Allen did retire though because he does have a lot of potentials. But we're just the fans we don't really know what's REALLY going on in the INSIDE. I'm just saying.

[HBKxTexas]

Memphis are just as dumb as they can be.Allen is nothing more than a Legend.I say trade A.I for Adam Morrison,Dj benga and Vujacic.Then he'll start nd Fish will bench

[Simplymatt937]

The Lakers Dont Need Iverson, Fisher And Farmar Are Getting the Job Done In LA

[ryanr20091]

odom is a better point guard the fisher and farmar ,. let odom be the poin haaa hell he has those pg skills

[Simplymatt937]

Odom Does Have Good Ball Handling Skills But Doesnt Really Make Since. He Would Be The Biggest Point Guard In History but Fisher Is A Better Shooter And In The Clutch.

[ryanr20091]

yeah fisher is a better shooter but odom ball handling skills are the same i ust wan to see what it would be like . for fun i always put odom in live and 2k at the point and have success at it . its fun . he should play back up pf and back pg . phil should just try it for fun what does he have to lose haaa they are the best team so why not have fun with it . i just want to see what it like for a 6'10 pg would do

[Simplymatt937]

Yea Ive Seen People Do That With Odom And Rashard Lewis In NBA Live Since I Play That Instead Of 2K. But I Might Switch Over Next Year, The Only Way Phil Would Prolly Do It If He was If Phil Was To Play Big Ball But Still Will Never See It

[JoEjOhSoN2fAn]

I knew this would happen. No big team want's A.i either cause he ruins the morale with his stinky attitude. If he wants basketball success he should go to Europe try that out.

[LinkinParkLivEshow]

if he'd put his ego to the side for once he'd be able to play a few more solid years and be considered for the hall of fame, but if he's not going to put it aside and have his ego force him into retirement there's no way he'll get into the Hall of Fame

[ZinderZim]

he should, hes such a brat

[Simplymatt937]

Lol He Played The Shit Out Of ZAch Randolph

[DallasWillAlwaysSuck]

do you know hom many people would want to be in his shoes? and he wants to bitch about his role... he's a future hall of hamer, he needs to grow the fuck up!

[Infernofury]

Allen Iverson = greedy and selfish

[krockhds]

MDF!! FUCK YOU!!

[PeterCasual]

I think retirement is just a threat by AI. He knows he wants play. Problem is nobody but the Grizzlies wanted him. This was his chance to prove he could be a team player and maybe sign with a contender next season.

[superkrex]

This kinda pains me to see that Iverson is having a hard time adjusting to Team oriented play this guy was the reason I watched Basketball....I remember when I was 8 and seeing Iverson leading the 76ers to the finals and winning game 1...This is jus sad now seeing the man and his troubles

[johnph96]

he shoulda just stayed with the 76ers

[m0mendez57]

nice i like what ur saying i subscribed to u

would have done it earlier but a lot of the stuff u talk about i already read about on some sites but i like what ur saying so i subed

[Dcarnys]

I am so glad Charlotte didn't pick him up.

[Jimjim1902]

haha COMPTON SIT THE FUCK DOWN

[1989prettyboy]

lol ZACH RANDOLPH

[310DBOY]

man im tired mothafuckas hating on allen iverson he's still to me the best in the nba period!!!

an if u got a problem wit that get at me!!!!

COMPTON STAND THA FUCK UP

[jacenvortex]

JR, what do you think about the whole KAJ thing? I'd love to hear you talk about that.

[fireblaze129]

i dont think iverson gots it anymore but it would be better if he signed in the miami heat cuz in dat point the heat needed a scoring point guard 2 help d-wade out atleast he would help lik a gud team like the heat dats was in th playoffs a couple times 4 the past 6 years

[THEaTEAM52]

Sounds similar to the Mike Vick situation...He should realize how lucky he is to be back in the NFL, but he's apparently not happy in Philly.

[ronaproject]

@THEaTEAM52 I agree with you but it would be hard to sit the bench after being a premier player three years ago. I personally hope that he (Michael Vick) goes to a team that really need him.

[THEaTEAM52]

As much as McNabb gets hurt, they may eventually really need him lol!

[ronaproject]

True. lol

[Simplymatt937]

But They Have Kelvin Kolb Playing Good Maybe Vick Will Get Picked Up By Buffalo Or Even Clevland Next Season

[THEaTEAM52]

If he's not happy as an Eagle, he will probably not be happy as a Brown lol...

[Simplymatt937]

The Reason Vick Isnt Happy As An Eagle Is Because he Doesnt Play Much Because They Really Dont Need Him. But As A Brown Vick Would Have A Chance To Be Starting QB Since Quinn And Anderson Suck

[THEaTEAM52]

I realize that, but what I'm saying is.......it's the BROWNS! lol

[Simplymatt937]

Lol True They Dont Have A Offense Or Much To Offer, But I Dont Think He Cares Much About Winning Now and More About Playing And Thats His Best Option Or Oakland

[skinsfanatic81]

the pacers could use him , we have a pretty good team i think , a i could be good , i think he can still play

[kara366]

=) =)

[csikkmusic]

Anywhere that he goes he will have to come off of the bench. Does he even want a ring anymore?  Trade him to the Lakers for Adam Morrison. lol

[uscphenom]

come on JR. theres no way he should be backin up conley. idc wat ppl say. hes got gas left into the tank. same with TO. and ppl i DONT CARE! if AI leaves the NBA i dont know wat id do. same if TO leaves the NFL!

[kesha08]

Thank you! I can understand if he was on a championship contender and they made him come off the bench. But, the Memphis Grizzlies? They have nothing to lose! A.I. at his worst is still better than majority of the players in the NBA.

[uscphenom]

NOOOOO!!!

[seand67]

Allen Iverson needs to take his "No Practicing Ass" away. Damn Prima Donna is full of shit!

[cibida1]

bring him to NY .

At this point a bag of ruffles would be a better point guard than Chris Duhon.

[lilbigmac1235]

what do you think about him going to the bobcats and being a starter. they need some experienced players that can help with their younger players anyway

[afreaka94]

he should go to the knicks

[pko322]

the grizzlies are stupid for benching AI.....why cant they make him play more minutes......he's better than the whole team

he's been in the nba finals and he's an mVP

what does grizzlis have?? NO SHIT AT ALL

[FootballBoi815]

Are you dumb? He would be starting over Mayo if he was a starter and Mayo is their future. He had one of the best rookie seasons and i think came second behind rose in the voting. He should not start over Conley because Conley is a young PG and we all know from experience of him playing the 1 on the pistons he can not play the one.

In my mind, I'd take a young OJ Mayo starting over an old selfish AI anyday.

[pko322]

yeah whatever..........mayo or no mayo....the grizzlies got no future

[nishanth01]

dude, Allen Iverson is an all-star. He can still average 24 points and 7 assists. Obviously he will feel insulted if Mike Conley starts over him. He was a starter in the All-Star team last season. Why should he bench with the MEMPHIS Grizzlies? A.I. should go to a team that needs a quality guard. OMG. They should send Iverson to the Lakers for some players and then we will see Iverson AND Kobe play together! Oh damn that will be gorgeous!

[Losangelesforlife]

Poor guy, every team he went to treated him like crap.. just a few years ago he was putting up 33ppg and now he is going to go out like this..

[zachmarkee1]

yo man stephon comin back i no him

[NovaNation3]

If he retires he should sign with philly for a day. I also think he should of went with Larry Brown and the Bobcats, or the sixers.

[southofheaven88]

say it aint true, i got allen in my fantasy !

knick fan hu ? how bout them pacers haha !!!!!

[WWFHEAD]

he still got it, i cant belive he cant fit in on any team..he should of stayed in philly. now hes just another jabroni

[rudeawakening101]

Allen's ego has a lot to do with this. Apparently, he'd rather be a starter and put up sub-par numbers (compared to in his prime) than accept a secondary role on a championship contending team. It is sad, because, AI could help a team get over the hump...but can't bring his guard down low enough. The sooner he realized it's not 2001 anymore -- the sooner the man could have won a championship.

[Smackyobitch]

Your right bro, come on now Iverson.. He messed up and was given a last chance but decides that it should be up to him in a take or leave situation. If this is Iverson, where will he be able to play? the ANSWER.. NOWHERE, including overseas cuz nobody will pick up since no one will think hes going to play

[x360ownr]

I've always hated AI though. He such a ball hoggin' Point Guard.

[32JSE]

Well AI kinda has problems.He even said, that he could come off the bench when he signed.There are only few teams out there, that would use him as a starter.Like i could imagine Knicks starting him.

[Jaguars932]

i agree. a.i would be perfect playing for the knicks. people would love to watch him in Madison Square Garden

With David Lee, Nate Robinson and A.I, It would be fun to watch

[jasonhoman]

AI was great. But he was everything that was wrong with this game post-Jordan era in the early 2000's. Look at the other guys from this era...Marbury, Francis, J-Will, etc.

Talented, yet extremely selfish players.

The only way these cats from the early 2000's can redeem their names is by giving up their star-mentality and play within the team concept...ie. Vince Carter.

Once he retires, that era can finally come to a close. I love AI, but it's time man...get outta here.

[SandersRobin24]

He's still one of the best one on one players in the NBA. The problem is that at this stage him playing that style is just not gonna benefit any team that he is one. He needs the freedom to do whatever he wants on the offensive end. When you factor in age with all the injuries and that there's guys more athletic than him guarding him, him playing Allen Iverson way is just not gonna benefit any NBA team right now.

[skinsman1]

really....i dont think anyone really cares to much what he does anymore. when he joined the pistons his career pretty much ended

[AlexFutureActor]

I will love him to come to the knicks but i don't know was with A.I. i guess he just use to being a star player not a back up player

[TG5455]

The Grizzlies sign Iverson is because they want to sell tickets...I agree with you JR if Iverson dosn't want to come off the bench than hang up the sneakers and retire.

[patturski]

allen iverson is by far my favorite player as a sixer fan i would hate to see him retire. I would take him back lol

[NBAbasktball]

ai should come to the knicks

[070054895]

ai shudda went to charlotte =O

[ambi101]

the person that really needs to retire is Shaq

[Cartman19x]

I also didn't understand about the Iverson signing to the Grizz, but he should know the Grizzles are young and a rebuilding team. But I do agree Memphis did this for tickets sales since they can't sell-out a crowd its kinda like what the Jaguars have to deal with just without the "outspoken player" and to add its bad enough that Rudy Gay is going to opt out of his contract (well that's what I heard)

[fatcowxlive]

No Team Play? He should have retired earlier, u should listen to manager, lol

[Socomkidd]

it's unfortunate that this happened to allen, i don't understand how him and memphis didn't talk about starting.

[zixx123456789]

OHOOHH YEAAAA
