Allen Iverson is officially back with the Philadelphia 76ers  email this discussion to a friend?

After departing with the Philadelphia 76ers during the 2006-07 season, Allen Iverson is back with his former team. The 34-year-old former All-Star and NBA MVP re-signed with the 76ers after a troubling offseason and stint with the Memphis Grizzlies. Iverson made his official Philadelphia 76ers return during the 76ers game against his former team the Denver Nuggets. Iverson is already far from being the Iverson of old with the 76ers. He just finished with 11 points in 4/11 FG shooting, grabbed 5 rebounds, and dished out 6 assists in an 83-93 losing effort. The 76ers had a good start and managed to keep the Nuggets at bay before the powerhouse Western Conference squad outscored Philadelphia 30-18 in the fourth quarter. It could be some rust that Iverson should shrug off in the next few games that limited AI to at least perform at what many people expect him to be. During the 2006-07 season, Iverson played 15 games with the 76ers before he was shipped to Denver for Andre Miller and he averaged 31.2 points and 7.3 assists per game for the 76ers in that 15 game stint. With the limited manpower the 76ers have, Iverson could take over and probably take the lead in scoring once again. At 34, he could still play some serious basketball. A fearless forecast, Iverson is still good to average at least 20 points a game for the 76ers for the 2009-2010 season and maybe, just maybe, lead them to a crack at the Eastern Conference playoffs (the 8th spot won't be bad enough) should the rest of the 76ers gel together. Andre Iguodala, Elton Brand, and Thaddeus Young are all capable enough to step up and provide AI the support he needs to transform the 76ers into a better team. I'm a little bit optimistic about AI's return to Philadelphia should he swallow his pride and play a more team oriented basketball. AI is such a waste if he retires too soon.

I heard that Allen Iverson is back with the 76ers. I was shocked because I was reading an article that he was going to retire already and it saddened me. I used to be a fan of his back when he was with the 76ers. Used to keep cards of him and even got a cap of AI. But now I hope he starts to play as a team because he definitely will be a waste if he retires.

I think the 76ers are using him to lure more ticket sales. The 76ers as a team is badly looking for an identity lately and is quite a mess. Andre Iguodala can't seem to lead the team well while Elton Brand is really living way to low from the expectations from him. AI is a sure move to bring in more people to the Wachovia Center and at least salvage some sales. But if Iverson can lower his pride, he can also save the 76ers season as well, and maybe his career too. Iverson can still play for about 2 or 3 seasons more before finally calling it quits. It's just a happy ending for him as of the moment that the 76ers agreed to sign him. I just hope that AI would stay as a 76er until he retires from the NBA.

glad that he is back in philly. it would be great for allen iverson and the 76ers frnachise if iverson retires as a proud member of this philadelphia team. hopefully he stays with this team until the end of the season as i have a pending bet on this one:

risking $110 to win $100, allen iverson stays with philadephia 76ers until the end of the 2009-2010 NBA regular season

cheers!!!
