Screamin' A says the Sixers are considering bringing AI back since they're boring to watch 

They gotta do something. When I was in China last week, the NBA seemed more popular there than in Philly.

Holy shtein the Sixers are beyond embarrassing.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Interesting.

I'm not sure how I feel about this. I love AI, but what does bringing him back accomplish? We know he wants to start and to shoot the ball 25 times a game. Is that going to benefit this team? Not really.

he brings them $
they are losing $
it is for $

Stefanski's official statement about meeting with AI today

Does sloppy play, losing streaks and frustration amongst the players on the court benefit the team either? At least if you bring someone in here with a smidgen of heart, you might excite the players to play well because not a damn soul on this team does that.

Signing AI is very low-risk at this point. Dude is 34, will give a soft boost to attendance and their record...bring it..whatever.

[Sgt PSN]

boosting their record is the last thing this team needs right now.

Update: According to David Aldridge, Sixers management has given the basketball side the go-ahead to sign Iverson if it wants. Team owner Ed Snider has signed off on Iverson's return, if that's what the basketball side of things determines is best.

76ers head coach Eddie Jordan and General Manager Ed Stefanski met with Allen Iverson in Dallas early this afternoon, this according to a source close to the situation. The Sixers, very soon, should be releasing a statement to this effect.

Details about the meeting -- or Iverson's potential return to the Sixers -- are still being worked out, but it's confirmed that he's "not yet" -- not at this moment -- a Sixer. No decision is expected about Iverson before tonight's game.

Sammy D interfered with Iguodala's game-winning 3 at the buzzer but it didn't look like it was going in anyway.  7 in a row...

[MDS]

Igoudala and dalembert are cancers. Can't root for em, can't like em, can't get rid of em.

This team is beyond depressing. Where you at havas, defend your babies you phony
