    "I feel like, in this situation, it has to be something, because you can go get Allen Iverson, because Allen Iverson's had brushes with the law before, but to go get Kobe Bryant, 'the squeaky clean human being,' it's got to be something," Iverson, the star guard of the Philadelphia 76ers, said to ESPN.

    "I wasn't shocked at all," said Iverson, who could be a teammate of the Laker guard on next year's U.S. Olympic team. "He's a human being. The media made Kobe Bryant who Kobe Bryant is. The media made him squeaky clean.

    "Y'all say he's squeaky clean, but we say he's a human being."

    There I included the main parts since it requires registration, so here is the link!

    I agree in what Iverson said, it's the truth in any celebrities case, mostly in the cookie cutter type ones. Then when they go and do something off limits, everyone is shocked because they have been blindsided by the media. Oh well...

    Hahaha these remarks didnt mean anything to me. I think its stupid the media is going after AI about the Kobe situation just because AI had trouble in the past. First comments I heard from Allen he didnt want to say anything, but at the USA practice I agreed with Allen like Love it Live said. I guess Kobe isnt gonna play with AI....

    Who cares really, it's the truth what he said, he didn't say anything negative towards Kobe.

    I didn't get mad when Tracy commented, they are all entitled to their comments.

    Actually AI had some good input this time! I am a huge Kobe fan but I know Kobe isn't perfect like the media made him seem to be! He will over come this and return to balling everyone up! The comments that T-Mac said I didn't say but I am sure it was ok. U know t_mac is also one of those so called good guys! I hate when ppl judge other ppl, for all we know T-Mac could be a raper and murderer, all we know is they can all ball! That's all that should matter right now tll we find out what really happened!

    Tracy is labeled as a softy at times, but he is trying to ruin that image. Putting on tatoos, and becoming more fierce in the games, basically he wants more attention.
