Along with his stint with the Detroit Pistons Allen Iverson proved to us that he’s a lot more than just a great ball player. Apparently he’s also a primadonna and a self-interested jerk. It looks like Iverson has forgotten that most major league sports these days are TEAM-based, not “I’m the greatest”-based. Though it may sound like quite the character indictment, you’d think with a cool $20 million contract the guy could at least pretend to be coachable. I mean, at least for a while? Now one of the NBA’s highest paid, least-wanted free agents, Iverson faces a difficult uphill battle not only against finding a team willing to take him but against a personal character that’s unwilling to concede. We know Iverson can play ball, but the NBA isn’t doing many one-on-ones these days. Iverson needs a hell of a wake-up call to get back in the game and regain the respect he’s lost. Unfortunately he has more than just the NBA to convince. His fan base has nearly evaporated completely, leaving him in the unique position of being a great player that no one wants anything to do with
