Allen Iverson Returns Home Despite that the 76ers Lose

The 76ers may have lost tonight's game, but at least the love of basketball has return to the city of brotherly love, now that Allen Iverson has returned home. For the first time this season the 76ers sold out the arena all thanks to Allen Iverson who had 11 points and 6 assist in his first game for the 76ers in over 2 years. Despite that the 76ers continued their losing ways losing the game in the fourth quarter. There is some good news to losing the game in the fourth quarter Allen Iverson has not played a game in over a month his conditioning and timing is off but his team lead for most of the game, once he gets that timing and conditioning back the 76ers could be a dangerous team. The bad news they have lost 10 in a row and are on the verge of losing 12 in a row their longest losing streak in 3 years right after they trade Allen Iverson in the first place.

The other A.I on the team, Andre Iguodala led the team with 31 points. On the Nuggets side Chauncey Billups the guy who was traded for A.I last season led his new team with31 points 8 rebounds and 8 assist. Carmelo Anthony posted a season low in points with 14 the only game this season that he has not scored 20 or more points in. With their leading scorer unable to score Chauncey Billups credits the team defense for the win with the 17-0 run spanning between the end of the 3rd and 4th quarter.

Here is what Allen Iverson had to say after the game "I'm proud of myself because I did the best that I could," said the 34-year-old Iverson, who had only one practice with his new (old) team. "My heart said, 'Yeah,' but my body said, 'No.' My legs were weak. My arms were weak, that was the best part of the night, just hearing these people's voices all over again." It could be the ultimate ending to the a career people dream of but it is all up to Allen Iverson, he plays his cards right he could led his team back to the playoffs, and be the answer once again.
