Not Quite What He Was Hoping For
Safe to say it wasn’t quite the reunion that Allen Iverson was looking for when the Nuggets played the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday night. Not only did his new team lose 108-97, Iverson was ejected after his second technical foul with 1:44 remaining in the game. Despite starting off making only two of nine shots, Iverson went on to score 30 and was yet still unable to lead the Nuggets to a win. This was a much needed road win for Philadelphia, who had lost 14 of their last 16 – most of which were with Iverson – and had gone 19 of their last 23 overall. The top scorer for Philly was Ashton Kutcher Kyle Korver, who added 26 points as the Sixers scored 100 points for the first time in 16 games.
I also want to mention, since I glimpsed it way down in espn.com's "Game Notes" section, that Denver guard Julius Hodge got in for the last minute of the game...his first game back on the floor since he was shot in a drive-by last April.
