Iverson and the Sixers are gonna suprise some people

If by relevant you mean a first round playoff loss and mediocre draft pick and another wasted year for Iguodala Young and Brand and delayed maturation of Jrue Holiday combined with still too many minutes for the anti christ, then yeah, the sixers will be relevant again.

If you mean developing a cohesive roster that might contend for a title in a couple years, then no, the sixers won’t be relevant, but hey – who cares anyway right as long as the losses are ‘exciting’

Who cares about two years ago, two years ago is irrelevant – his inability to function in Detroit or Memphis is more relevant, not to mention Denver couldn’t WAIT to get rid of him (and became much much better when they got Chauncey isntead of Iverson)

Iverson breaks teams…seriously…I don’t get how people miss that

Actually – you’re right – I’m sorry

The Philadelphia Iversons will surprise some people.

All those people who were all jazzed about him coming back and how he’d make the sixers ‘relevant’ again…they’ll be surprised.

Comcast will be surprised when after 2 weeks attendance goes back into the toilet

Eddie Jordan will be surprised when people still want him fired.

Ed Stefanski will be surprised when he realizes he’s the GM equivalent of Ed Wade

how is adding a proven scoring weapon and point guard going to equal a wasted year for Iguodala Young and Brand? Last time I checked, Brand was in his prime, and Iguodala looks like he’s reached his peak in development. Also last time I checked, the sixers were 5-13, it seems that by not adding a talent like Iverson the sixers would be wasting another year. by the way, Jrue can stand to have his maturation delayed, hes 20 freakin years old, i dont understand why everyone thinks young players need to be rushed into playing and then they call them flops when they fail to become allstars by the time they’re 25. Allen’s track record as a starter speaks for itself, I dont blame him for playing like crap with the pistons and grizzlies when hes being benched in favor of rodney stuckey and Mike Conley, two point guards who have proven nothing in the league. Also, maybe it makes sense that the Nuggets were better without Iverson and with Billups because they allready have an elite scorer in Carmelo anthony, Iverson’s talents were really unnecessary for that team. The sixers dont even have anyone who can average 20 points, thats pathetic! Iguodala has failed as a number one option, thats not his fault, its just not the way his game is. Iverson’s natural scoring ability is needed by this sixers team

It would be nice to see Iverson in a Sixers jersey once again (especially these new/throwback ones) but it will just make this team worse in the long run. Sure they may win a few more games this year but at the cost of developing their young players. This team is going nowhere fast so i don’t mind losing this season as long as they are playing the young guys so they can develop.

iverson could take us to first round win and we would probably lose second round though if we face a team like clevland, or orlando

A. Became better, a legitimate playoff/championship contender

B. Became worse, because they lost a great player.

My point is, the past is the past. The glory days are long gone. The East was god awful back then, and the team back then was built around/for Iverson (WHO WAS ALMOST A DECADE YOUNGER!). This is, in no way, a good move. Do you really think we are going to go anywhere this year with Iverson? Yeah, maybe we win a couple more games but I highly doubt we get out of the first round. And we are back to square one, being a bubble team that can’t break through because we are side-stepping, not moving forward. God, I’m so tired of people hanging onto the name Iverson and not the reality of the situation.

Mark your calenders, Monday is the day the AI revolution begins.
