“I don’t know how I’m not a part of that staff.” This is an expression that has become popularized by the world’s most famous sports commentator, ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith. The phrase is used to express frustration with not being included in a group or club, but it is often used as a coping mechanism for those who are excluded from something they feel entitled to.
I don’t know how I’m not a part of that staff. The author of the blog post is tired of getting left out. This article will discuss what signs your employees don’t respect you.
Allen Iverson is a basketball player from the United States.’s heart will always remain with the Philadelphia 76ers. The Hall of Famer spent the first ten years of his NBA career with the Philadelphia 76ers, where he won four scoring championships and an MVP honor. He also guided the Sixers to their most recent trip in the NBA Finals, in 2001.
Iverson is still a 76ers fan who regularly attends home games from courtside, but he now wants to return to the team as a part of the coaching staff. And he’s baffled as to why the group hasn’t contacted him yet.

For decades, retired NBA players have transitioned to coaching. After their Hall of Fame playing careers, Bill Russell, Larry Bird, and Magic Johnson all tried their hand at coaching, and names like Doc Rivers and Jason Kidd are still on the NBA bench today.
Iverson, a Hall of Famer, now wants to follow in his father’s footsteps.
Iverson revealed in a recent interview with Taylor Rooks of Bleacher Report that he wants to join an NBA coaching staff.
“I’ve forgotten more basketball than some people know,” Iverson added. “I know I can help an organization improve.” “I know so much about basketball, and not just in terms of who’s excellent and who’s not,” he says.
“Relationships, how teammates respond to one another, what they struggle with, what drives them to play in a particular manner… I know such things about athletes, and I know how to assist with an organization.”
It’s not exactly surprising that A.I. wants to join a team.
Iverson is perplexed as to why the 76ers haven’t offered him a coaching position.
“I’ve been retired for 11 years and have no idea how I’m not on that team.”

Since 2010, Iverson hasn’t appeared in the NBA. In retirement, he’s been able to spend more time with his five children, but he’s always wanted to return to coaching.
But not just any coach, but one for his favorite Philadelphia 76ers. In fact, he can’t believe the company hasn’t contacted him to offer him a position in the past decade.
I’ll always be a Sixer. Sixer blood was coursing through my veins. Everyone is aware of my desire to assist that group. I’ve been retired for how long? Eleven years? I’m not sure how I’m not a member of the team in some manner.

Rooks informed Iverson that he would be an excellent consultant for the club, and Iverson agreed enthusiastically.
Iverson replied, “Even if it’s that.” “I’d be the happiest person on the planet, and money has nothing to do with it.” It’s just me being myself and trying to assist since I’m a Sixer. I’m not sure why nothing has been done for me.
“And I still adore you.” Don’t get me wrong: it’s all love, and it’s not going anywhere, but there’s something I don’t understand.”
A wonderful union
Iverson is without a doubt the best player to ever wear a 76ers jersey. Fans in Philadelphia still adore him, and they go crazy if he comes out to a game to sit courtside next to Michael Rubin, Meek Mill, or Kevin Hart.
Many of today’s NBA players grew up idolizing A.I. Imagine if they were chosen by the Sixers and had the opportunity to work with Iverson on a daily basis. Even if he isn’t given a formal coaching title, Iverson’s expertise and experience as a consultant or assistant may be beneficial to the company. And if he excels in that position, there’s no reason the 76ers shouldn’t offer him an opportunity to help out on the coaching staff as well.
Since Iverson’s epic 2001 season, the Sixers haven’t made it to the NBA Finals. Perhaps bringing him back into the building is exactly what the squad needs to reclaim their position.
