Chauncey said the "best memories" of his career were with the Pistons.

"Before that, my career was in jeopardy in a few different stages. I persevered, sustained and continued to work hard, and finally got my opportunity in Detroit, and I never turned back from that point. That's what made it so sweet to me to win a championship after what I went through. I had to scrap and fight to get through it and to reach the pinnacle made it even sweeter. Winning the championship was the ultimate. I never set out to win the [Finals] MVP. Winning the championship was enough."

一場比賽兩隊合計送出 26 鍋！當真是銅牆鐵壁來著，雖然最後那一鍋令溜馬迷超心碎~~

The Pacers–Pistons brawl (colloquially known as the Malice at the Palace)[2][3] was an altercation that occurred in a National Basketball Association (NBA) game between the Indiana Pacers and the Detroit Pistons on November 19, 2004, at The Palace of Auburn Hills in Auburn Hills, Michigan. The Associated Press (AP) called it "the most infamous brawl in NBA history",[4] while the media has dubbed it the "worst night in NBA history".

With 45.9 seconds left in the game,[5] Pistons center Ben Wallace went up for a layup, but was fouled by Pacers small forward Ron Artest. Furious for being fouled when the game had already been decided, Wallace pushed Artest. A fight broke out on the court between several players. After the fight was broken up, a fan threw a drink from the stands at Artest while he was lying on the scorer's table. Artest immediately charged after the fan, sparking a massive brawl between players and spectators that stretched from the seats down to the court and lasted several minutes.

After the game, the NBA suspended nine players for a total of 146 games, which led to $11 million in salary being lost by the players. Five players were also charged with assault, and eventually sentenced to a year of probation and community service. Five fans also faced criminal charges and were banned from attending Pistons home games for life. The fight also led the NBA to increase security between players and fans, and to limit the sale of alcohol in games.

Check out Allen Iverson’s milestones throughout his career from his first points in Philadelphia to his last point at Chicago Bulls.

24368 career points

NBA

Allen Ezail Iverson (born June 7, 1975) is an American retired professional basketball player who played for four different teams (Philadelphia 76ers, Denver Nuggets, Memphis Grizzlies, Detroit Pistons) during 14 seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA). He played both the point guard and shooting guard positions. Iverson was an eleven-time NBA All-Star and won the All-Star MVP award in 2001 and 2005.

Iverson attended Bethel High School in Hampton, Virginia and was a dual-sport athlete. He earned the Associated Press High School Player of the Year award in both football and basketball, and won the Division AAA Virginia state championship in both sports. After high school, Iverson attended Georgetown University for two years, where he set the school record for career scoring average (22.9 points per game) and won Big East Defensive Player of the Year awards both years.

Following two successful years at Georgetown, Iverson declared eligibility for the 1996 NBA Draft, and was selected by the Philadelphia 76ers with the number one pick. He was named the NBA Rookie of the Year in the 1996–97 season. Winning the NBA scoring title during the 1998–99, 2000–01, 2001–02 and 2004–05 seasons, Iverson was one of the most prolific scorers in NBA history, despite his small stature (listed at 6 feet, 0 inches). His regular season career scoring average of 26.7 points per game ranks sixth all-time, and his playoff career scoring average of 29.7 points per game is second only to Michael Jordan. Iverson was also the NBA Most Valuable Player of the 2000–01 season and led his team to the 2001 NBA Finals the same season. Iverson represented the United States at the 2004 Summer Olympics, winning the bronze medal. He also played for the Denver Nuggets, Detroit Pistons and the Memphis Grizzlies, before ending his NBA career with the 76ers during the 2009–10 season.

He was rated the fifth-greatest NBA shooting guard of all time by ESPN in 2008. Iverson officially announced his retirement from professional basketball on October 30, 2013.

Iverson 'insulted' by decision to have him come off bench

The bell sounded on Round III of the Allen Iverson-Chris Ford struggle Monday, and it looks like this one could go the distance.

When is that? Possibly April 14, the last day of the regular season.

Iverson, who sat out the Philadelphia 76ers' 85-69 drubbing by the Detroit Pistons on Sunday after Ford told him he would have to come off the bench, said Monday that he was "insulted" by the interim coach's decision.

"A lot of people might look at it like it's a selfish thing or something like that," Iverson said. "Why wouldn't I start? I'm the franchise player here. I don't know any franchise players that come off the bench. I don't know any Olympian that comes off the bench. I don't know any All-Star that comes off the bench. I don't know any former MVP that comes off the bench. I don't know any three-time scoring champion that comes off the bench.

"I don't know any first team All-NBA (player) that comes off the bench. Why Allen Iverson? Why should I come off the bench? ... I think it is an insult to me. Who I am as a player, who I am to this organization, who I've been to this organization, that's an insult to me to come off the bench if I'm a starter."

Indeed, a lot of Philadelphia fans did see it as a selfish thing on Iverson's part. In a Philly.com poll Monday, 69% of more than 5,000 respondents feel Iverson was in the wrong, 19% say the Sixers were wrong and 12% fault both sides.

Iverson, 28, averaging 27.0 points a game, had missed the 76ers' previous three games with swelling in his right knee. Ford was informed about Iverson's decision to play less than an hour before game time and told him he could come off the bench.

Ford said Monday: "I made my decision, and he made his. ... I don't have any tension."

But there is tension.

Iverson and Ford have been at odds since Ford replaced Randy Ayers 15 games ago.

In Round I Ford benched Iverson in the first game after the All-Star break. Iverson said his flight was delayed leaving Los Angeles and he missed practice in Denver.

In Round II, Ford fined Iverson when he did not call Ford himself to inform the coach that he would not be at a game against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Feb. 29 because he was sick.

Philadelphia is playing about .500 basketball (7-8) under Ford, and the Sixers are 3-1 in their last four games without Iverson.

Despite a disappointing season — Philadelphia (28-39) is 11 games under .500 — the 76ers are in the playoff race, just two games behind the Miami Heat for the last spot in the East.

Billy King, the 76ers' president and general manager, said Iverson wouldn't be fined. With 15 regular-season games left, King might have to do more to resolve the situation.
