Allen Iverson "No-Shows" Piston Practice But Still No Problem
I'm from Detroit and like most Detroiters these days I really don't have a lot to be happy about in the global sense. The Lions are 0 and 12, the much anticipated Tigers had an embarrassing meltdown and the Detroit Big Three automakers in front of Congress looked like the spoiled Three Stooges, instead of humanitarians caring for fellow Detroit auto workers. So when I heard Allen Iverson missed a practice...
all I could say was, "Oh crap!" Now I don't expect the Pistons to win it all but I was looking forward to some good basketball perhaps in the conference finals. Well, writer Drew Sharp over at the Detroit Free Press tells us not to worry about this little incident and all is still good "wit' Deeeetroit Basket-Ball." Click his name and read on.
