Last night, after the Sixers dropped a 123-99 decision to the Phoenix Suns at the Wachovia Center, several "high-end" season ticketholders talked to the Philadelphia Daily News about an unofficial survey conducted by a Sixers official concerning possible life without Allen Iverson.

The Sixers deny it took place.

I asked general manager Billy King about it in an e-mail and he responded, "WE NEVER DID THAT. I would place my reputation on that.

"If I was going to trade anyone, even Allen, I would not ask season ticketholders. If I ever did my job [like that] or the organization did that, I would QUIT."
