This report from Comcast’s Chick Hernandez certainly doesn’t mean A.I has no plans to retire, but it does throw a wrinkle into the story:
Report: Iverson Has Not Retired, Will Meet With John Thompson
Comcast SportsNet’s own Ron Thompson reports Wednesday night that in fact Iverson has not retired and has not filed formal papers with the league, and this evening, had a phone conversation with his former college coach John Thompson.
The outcome of that conversation: Iverson will meet with John Thompson sometime in the next week after the holidays to discuss the player’s future. Thompson is on record Wednesday night as being vehemently opposed to Iverson ending his 14-year career.
Again, Comcast SportsNet’s Ron Thompson is reporting Wednesday night that Allen Iverson has not retired from the NBA, contrary to an earlier report.
If nothing else, Iverson’s comments Wednesday night certainly seemed to leave the door open for him to continue, or return to, playing basketball.
