I know Team USA is out of Gold contention, but I found this just now and found it pretty funny. Also it shows how big Iverson's celebrity is, we're talking about one of the most popular athletes in the world wearing Iverson's jersey.. that's big.

I wish they had a picture to go along with this short piece.

Great, since it's true that Iverson is one of the more recognizable bball players in the world.

"If you've ever seen Iverson play in person, you know that his improvisational skills are amazing. Baron Davis calls him unguardable. He's a killer on the fast break. One on one, even one on two, when the guy they call the Answer is on a one-way trip to the basket, you better just foul him. People can hate all day about the number of shot attempts. But, damn, give him props for even getting them up. He's small enough to have every shot contested. That 39% shooting sounds terrible to the regular reader, but have you seen these NBA players lately?"

that's ridiculous, he shouldn't have to apologize for what he wears. if it was a team USA - Iverson jersey then it would be comprehendable, but it was a sixers jersey, so what if Iverson was on the team that defeated Spain.
