You just call him a POS when the man did what he thought would be best for the team. His team was not able to perform up to his level.
I definately wouldn't say he did it for the love of the game. He did it because he wanted to win. He has ALWAYS done whatever it takes to win. He wasn't able to but that does not make him a POS.
I guess you blame Iverson when the 76ers lose. Yeah sometimes it is Iverson's fault but most of the time it is because his team doesn't know how to play their role in the game. Tryingt o deny that Iverson is your go to guy is what hurts the 76ers. Just like the Wizards, they didn't know how to raise their level of the game. They did not play like a team that wanted to make the playoffs. The 40 year old man was busting his ass every game.
ironic that this all comes after 2 consecutive games where MJ missed game winning shots.
wins in both games would have kept them in the running. and his team DID put him in a position to win those games, he just came up short. why didn't he just say that instead of all this fingerpointing?
