12:51 PM ET 03.08 | It's been a bad month for Allen Iverson, but it seems his future could be even worse. In late February, Iverson left Sixers indefinitely to tend to his sick daughter. Two weeks later, it was announced he wouldn't return to the team. And just as soon as his professional life crumbled, so did his personal life when his wife filed for divorce last week. But in a bombshell report from friend and former Sixers beat writer, Stephen A. Smith, Iverson also has problems with alcohol and gambling. "If numerous NBA sources are telling the truth -- and there's no reason to believe they'd do otherwise in a situation of this magnitude -- Iverson will either drink himself into oblivion or gamble his life away."
