Can it get Any Worse for Allen Iverson?


On the same day his wife filed for divorce, the Philedephia 76ers announced Allen Iverson would not be suiting up for them for the rest of the season. And now, to add insult to injury, there's an article describing how Allen is drinking and gambling his life away.

Sports writer Stephen A. Smith writes
Allen Iverson is in trouble, folks, deep trouble. The combination of alcohol and gambling - and a once-promising career in tatters because of the first two - won't culminate in anything short of disaster if help does not arrive in short order.

If numerous NBA sources are telling the truth - and there's no reason to believe they'd do otherwise in a situation of this magnitude - Iverson will either drink himself into oblivion or gamble his life away.
