Guess Who’s Bizzack: The Answer’s Debut With Sixers

If this doesn’t make your heart flutter at least a little bit then you have issues, and more than likely you have grissues (grill issues) as well.

Even though the Sixers didn’t get the win against the Nuggets Monday, one thing is for certain, Allen Iverson is good for business. In the midst of a 10-game losing streak with attendance among the nastier in the League, The Answer was able to pack the Wachovia Center, helping the Sixers get their first sellout of the season. He also gained the respect and admiration by kissing the floor after hearing being introduced in the starting lineups. Definitely a great move on his part and hopefully a good sign for things to come.

Iverson played decent considering it was his first game action in over a month, filling up the stat sheet with 11 points, 5 boards and 6 assists but most impressively only committing one turnover in nearly 38 minutes of action. The Sixers played solid as well, paced by Andre Iguodala, and led for most of the game before tricking it off in the 4th quarter. Overall it was one of their better showings this season.

Iverson and the Sixers will get a pass for the loss, but it won’t get any easier for the squad as they get set to face another one of AI’s former teams, the Pistons, on Wednesday. They do have 4 more games left in this home stand, with the Rockets, Warriors and King James coming to town throughout the course of the next week. If the Sixers can go 2-2 over this span, or at least look respectable, you can start to call this reunion somewhat successful. I can guarantee that they well sell at least one of these games out as well, but just because LeBron’s coming to town.

Spotted: Mike Vick Hollers At Bernard Hopkins Fight

(Damn, Sugar Shane Mosley looks strung out)

Who knew that Mike Vick and Bernard Hopkins were knigs? The Legend, getting ready to face his former team this weekend, took some time out of his schedule to watch Bernard Hopkins defeat Enrique Ornelas by a 12-round unanimous decision in Philly Wednesday. The win was supposed to set up a fight with Roy Jones next year, but after Danny Green got up in Jones’ ass like a wedgie during their fight in Australia, the match is like a fart in the wind now.
