Mad Dash: New book alleges Iverson was drunk during 'practice' rant (NBC on Yahoo Sports)

Allen Iverson's legendary practice rant will forever be attached to him and his remarkable career in the NBA, but a new book about Iverson claims that many within the Philadelphia 76ers organization believe Iverson was drunk during the press conference. It's a surprising revelation (or not, when you consider he said the word "practice" around two-dozen times), and one that's definitely added a new, troubling layer to a moment most of us have laughed at for over a decade. Our friends at Ball Don't Lie wrote more about the revelatory quotes from the book, and you should check it out.
