While the entire Pistons team showed up to practice on Thanksgiving, Allen Iverson failed to appear--he didn't feel like it, it was a holiday and he wanted to be home. When will teams realize that Iverson's selfishness will never stop, and his "the-rules-don't-apply-to-me" attitude will destroy any concept of team chemistry. I hope Rasheed punches him in the face.

I can't see why they made the trade in the first place. The Pistons had a very good team with Billups and probably just needed an extra ingredient to go the next step - 6 conference finals in a row ain't too bad! So trading Billups for Iverson will make all the difference?? ..wouldn't have thought so. And so far, it ain't looking like it!
