SPEAKING

``I was angry all day from the shootaround on. Going in there and having a meeting and being with some guy that I don't really know, telling me that I wasn't going to start and what I have to do for us to be successful ... I was just upset about being here eight years and somebody being here for one game and benching me. The relationship between us goes out the window.'' _ Allen Iverson, who missed Monday's practice and was held out of the starting lineup Tuesday night by interim head coach Chris Ford.
