This was going to be the summer Allen Iverson's days in Philadelphia would come to an end.  On Tuesday, Billy King said that the Iverson era will continue, as he confirmed that there will be no more discussed deals involving the All-Star.

"Allen and I have talked about it, and he wants to be here and is excited to be playing for us."

King said he is "still working the phones, talking to people [about prospective deals]."

"We're trying to do what's best to make us a better ballclub," he said. "That's not including Allen in our discussions."
