If they re-did the list of the 50 greatest players in NBA history, he'd be in there.
...cats kill me with this BS. AI has been asked 3 times to check his ego and he REFUSED. so much so, that he's resorted to cursing out and verbally disrespecting head coaches in front of other players.

Id love to see him with the Lakers get some scoring off the bench.
Kobe would whoop him into shape, playing each other in the gym
Waits for CP to write an essay and he doesn't want him on HIS team

....but we're not talking about his MANY problems. the ONE problem in the way is his REFUSAL to accept the role his style of play and career has reduced him to. to add to that, he was VERY vocal with his refusal, cursing out coaches about his worth in front of other players on the team bus, and he STILL got another shot with a third team after that incident and managed to do it yet again. now that's 3 times with 3 different teams. and i wouldnt doubt similar things happened in Philly but they kept it all in house.
- and you can cut that "there are plenty of players" BS right now......there aren't. the last player i can think of that was as disruptive to a team while demanding their worth at the same time was Spreewell, and we havent seen him since.

If the 2011-12 version of Iverson is a man who can accept coming off the bench in limited minutes, then he may get some consideration for a roster spot. Shoot...if cancers like Nick Van Exel and Glenn Robinson can catch on later in the careers with reputable teams like the Spurs, then there's ALWAYS a chance for guys like AI.
All in all...like I said before...if he's played his last game in the NBA, I'm fine with it. However, if he catches on with another squad, I hope he gets a ring.
