Without a clear-cut suitor emerging to sign him, All-Star guard Allen Iverson(notes) is set to retire, his personal manager said Wednesday afternoon.

Iverson, who has played 14 seasons in the NBA, thought he was close to signing with the New York Knicks last week only to be told team officials had a change of heart.

my favorite player of all time.

amazing career, Hall of Famer for sure; just never got his ring.

one of the best.

Kinda sad to see him go under these circumstances but I enjoyed watching him play over the years.

Yeah he should have hung it up 2 years ago.  He is one of the best little men who ever did it.

lol at some nba general managers. theres probabley 4-6 elite teams in the nba with the potential to win a chamionship in the next 2-3 years, then theres probabley 10 teams with decent rosters the rest of the nba teams fucking suck, i mean suck fucking arse, no matter how you try to spin it theres a lot of teams in the nba that are terrible. irrespective of youth or "we moving in this direction" i dont think its right that not one of those bottom feeder teams would pay iverson. i mean 3-mill for 1 year??? he can still drop 25 easy on anyone and any team and he will sell shit loads of tickets and will make that team relevant again, all he wants to do is start? which in my opinion he should be especially on these bottom 15 teams.

id love to see him land in charlotte

I agree with tempo, how the fuck could the knicks NOT add A.I. for just one year, I mean, they are 3-12..... how would adding a guy who scores 25 p.p.g. not help your team, if you suck already.

it just dosent make sense, how can iverson hinder new yorks development? half of that roster aint even gunna be there next year lol
