Allen Iverson's Twitter feed is not exactly chock-a-block with personality. He shouted out his pride in @theRealJRSmith after the Cavs disrupted the Warriors, but the Answer doesn't seem to share his protege's shirtless joie de vivre, at least in the 140-character sphere. In fact, the bulk of his Tweets in the last few weeks have been promotions for events he's hosting such as the Allen Iverson Celebrity Summer Classic in Philadelphia August 4-5th, a weekend of basketball, a FlashBack Friday Block Party—gentlemen, sport your do' rags—and an UnGala with food, drinks, dancing, and perhaps photo ops with Pusha T. (Presumably at the deluxe price.)So where does one go for their daily dose of Iverson news, and not just golf outing promos? Why Facebook, of course.
