Tim Hardaway still has a job for the Heat, Tj Ford has played every season he was in the NBA except when injured, Big Dog got a ring wit San Antonio and retired, who the fukk is Ronald Dupree to be blackballed, and i know Brevin Knight played at least 10-12 years in the league. BLACKBALLED means hear today gone tomorrow never heard from again aka RASHAD MCCANTS. You can't tell me that Mccants couldnt be what JJ Redikk does. I know he's not a superstar but that man is an excellent three point shooter and i feel like on a team like Chi or Boston he would produce. But Connie Hawkins did get blackballed to for a while.

oh naw I'm just naming names off top of my head. And yea, McCants is cool, but peeps might be overrating the dude a bit, but he was and I'm sure still is a good shooter, but the dude blackballed himself, so he doesn't have anyone else to blame but himself though. From what I heard, teams will give him D-League deals, but he would quit or not show up for some strange reason. But, if he committed himself to the D-League like Gerald Green has and now he is a very serviceable player in today's league, than I can see him back.

I still think Culpepper deserved better. Aaron Brooks may have been bbd also.

Word yo what happened to Brooks? I remember that big 3 of Brooks, Deuce Mcallister, and Joe Horn were a hella fun and dope tandem to watch. The fukk happened to all 3 of them?

Never heard this Craig Hodges story before, so I looked up his stats expecting him to be solid from the way he was explaining the story. In his last year, he scored 4 ppg on 38% shooting. Pretty sure they didn't need a political reason to cut him.

:what: iverson PERSONIFIED the pistons' image. THEYRE THE BAD BOYS. and he fit right in with that roster. their leader was rasheed "100X" wallace!! lol @ acting like iverson ambushed the jerry sloan jazz.



this is bullchit. iverson was used as the scapegoat. detroit was already going downhill before iverson got there. that was the whole point of the trade. and then they had curry coaching, and he did a poor job.

and lets not act like iverson was the only person that had a problem with curry.

and lets please not act like iverson wasnt coming off one of his best years, right before he suddenly transformed into being washed-up.

iverson wasnt even playing like half the time. what excuse did detroit have for them losing all those games when iverson wasnt even on the floor?

This is 11 kinds of bullshyt. Those pistons were about "GOIN TO WORK" and day to day effort and whatnot...blue collar team...if you watched pistons bball then, fakkit, you'd know that, and know the advertisements about pistons goin to work.

Now

They started to lose their way in 06/07, but iverson exponentially accelerated this process. His habits and lack of actually giving a fukk at this point of his career made prince, rip, and others comfortablr doing this too. fukking jason maxiell had a sense of entitlement.

So

Quit trying to save him. Pistons iverson is WAY different from sixers iverson.

There's plenty of scrubs that have stayed in the league with those stats or worse. Brian Scalabrine is 34, has averaged 1.2 ppg over the past 3 years. 1.8 ppg over the last 5 and earned 1.4 million last season:scusthov:

Culpepper always sucked. He should give 1/2 his career earnings to Moss

really? cuz culpepper had one of the greatest seasons a quarterback ever had in nfl history, and moss missed most of that season & cris carter was out of the league.

and why are some people mentioning Bonzi? He almost made the Wolves' roster this season.

because it seems like he dissappeared into thin air while he was still poppin.

lol @ a commercial.

lol @ acting as if the pistons were just some young team following behind iverson.

lol @ you ignoring everything, just to save face.

iverson missed a ton of games. what was stopping the pistons from winning then? hell, what was stopping them from winning the year before iverson even got there?

are we gonna blame iverson for rip, tmac, and others boycotting last year

are we gonna act like michael curry didnt bomb as coach?

are we gonna act like iverson was the only one that had a problem with dude?
