    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">For purposes of full disclosure, Tracy McGrady readily acknowledges that Allen Iverson is "a real good friend." He readily acknowledges "there is some bias" in his opinion. But ... The Houston Rockets star firmly believes that Iverson, the 76ers' star guard, should at least be included in the group trying out for the U.S. National Team, from which the nation's 2008 Olympic team will be selected. ... "I feel it's a lack of respect," said McGrady, who also was not invited. "Of all the guys who didn't go the last time, he chose to go. He was the true veteran who did everything. I just think it's only right to invite him back." -- Philadelphia Daily News </div>
