He was my favorite player for a very long time. I loved the way this boy played. Scrappy and tough. I was proud when he was MVP. I am disappointed that he never managed to become a true champion, a leader on and off the court. It really is too bad that his brilliant career ends in such negative fashion. I do worry about this cat in retirement, what in the hell does he do now?

No Storybook Ending For Future Hall of Famer Allen Iverson's NBA Career

Iverson had the heart of a lion and the energy of a non-warrior, with the passion of a kid playing a game he obviously loved more than anything. I always adored watching him play. And I always pictured him retiring like Jabar, or Chamerlain, like an elder statesman with many titles under his belt. Aw, Man. Wasn't supposed to go out like this.
