AI volunteered for this? It looks as if they are taking him to jail after he got off the plane. lol

I still dont understand how he is not on a squad somewhere. I know he is a head case but he is a head case who can ball. And Ii hate the dude considering he was a hoya and then a 76er and I am a syracuse and celtic fan. Still I would think LA would have taken a run at him or maybe Miami.

I am as big of an AI fan as there is, and I think he is done. He is not explosive anymore, he is still streaky as a shooter and his defense is all but gone. I can see why he is out of the NBA. He will still kill over in Europe though....

Well played. I'm not even going to google-check it.

The thing that made Iverson great in his prime was his motor. He could run all day and get bumped around and never get tired. He scored more points by taking more shots, not because he was particularly efficient. Without those legs/lungs, he can't do the things that made him what he was. I loved watching AI for a long time, but he never developed his "old man" game the way the great players did to compensate as they got older. He's the same player, just old now.

So, what are the alcohol laws in Turkey? Did AI look into that before he decided to move there?

When I was there, they had good bourbon selection in Istanbul.
