Iverson takes another leave from Sixers
By: Tom Moore
Allen Iverson has left the Sixers again to be with ill daughter Messiah.
Iverson will be out indefinitely, starting with their three-game Western
Conference swing that begins Tuesday at Golden State.
"At this time, we feel that it is in the best interest of the Sixers, Allen
and his family that he be allowed to deal with a very serious issue that is
far greater than the game of basketball," said team president Ed Stefanski in
a release distributed by the Sixers on Monday afternoon.
A story on Yahoo! Sports claimed the 21-34 Sixers are thinking about severing
ties with the 34-year-old Iverson for good. That's conceivable because if
Iverson is out for any extended time, it wouldn't make sense to bring him
back with so few games left in the season and the Sixers likely headed for
the draft lottery.
The 5-foot-11 Iverson missed five games prior to the all-star break to be
with his 4-year-old daughter in Atlanta. Iverson is averaging 13.8 points and
4.1 assists in 25 games -- 24 of them starts -- with the Sixers this season.
An NBA source disputed reports that the Sixers sent Iverson home.
Iverson, who signed with the Sixers for the pro-rated veterans' minimum on
Dec. 2, is 69 points from joining Hal Greer, who is the only player in
franchise history to score 20,000 points.
Willie Green is expected to start at guard in Iverson's place opposite rookie
Jrue Holiday.

沒時間翻，不過這篇的意思是Yahoo!那篇報導不一定準確，
球團並不打算叫AI回家吃自己，目前只能肯定他要請假缺賽。
本來嘛，人家女兒生重病非回家不可，這時候解雇他未免太沒人性...
