Allen Iverson To Officially Announce Retirement
Not that this really means a whole lot, but does he have to officially retire in order for the HOF clock to start ticking? Anyone that says he won't be in the HOF, please exit this thread immediately

Pound for Pound one of the best players to ever play the game.

Toughest player I ever saw play.
In his prime, there wasn't anyone more fun to watch IMO. |

The HoF clock starts after your last game played, not upon an official announcement from player/family, and yeah he is for sure a first ballot entry.

Very fun player to watch for sure. No doubt about it, he will be in the HOF. |

For sure a first ballot hall of famer!!!! Imagine what his career could have been if he would have learned to change his mindset.

My favorite basketball player of all-time, btw.
I wish someone would give him another NBA shot! |

Iverson was an amazing scorer in the league especially for his size. He will be in the Hall of Fame. It's a shame his career fizzled out in the end though.

People's opinions of Iverson are always so muddled because of his "practice" incident and his arrests. But to me, he was a great player that brought a lot of fans to the NBA and a mediocre team to the Finals.

I think he could still be playing if he would have accepted a lesser role. Just seems like his ego got in the way of what could have been.

Great player who would have been even better if he had a better head on his shoulders.

One of my favorites of all time. I was especially all in on Iverson mania during 00-02.
