CONTENT Slug: SPX Date: WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 30, 2013 Show: SCRIPPS HOWARD NEWSWATCH ((NICC)) IT’S GREAT TO BE BACK IN THE WORLD OF THE NBA, BUT IT’S ALSO A SAD TIME. ELEVEN TIME ALL STAR ALLEN IVERSON HAS OFFICIALLY RETIRED FROM THE NBA. IN HIS 15 YEAR CAREER IVERSON SCORED 24,368 PTS AND WON FOUR SCORING TITLES. THOUGH TRAGIC, IVERSON SAYS THAT HE’S AT PEACE WITH HIS DECISION. LAST NIGHT I HOPE EVERYBODY GOT THE CHANCE TO ENJOY THE OPENING OF THE NBA 2013-2014 SEASON. IF NOT HERE’S A RECAP. AFTER RECEIVING THEIR RINGS AND THEIR BANNER LOOKS LIKE THE HEAT TOOK IT ALL HOME. THE HEAT DOMINATED THE BULLS 107-95. LEBRON JAMES LED THE HEAT WITH 17 PTS, SIX REBOUNDS, AND EIGHT ASSISTS. WITH RIVALRY GAMES POPPING ALL OVER THE PLACE LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT IN LA. THE LAKERS DEFEATED THE CLIPPERS 116-103. LOOKS LIKE BRYANT MIGHT BE ABLE TO RELAX FOR A WHILE. ALSO WHAT GOOD WAY FOR XAVIER HENRY TO START HIS FIRST SEASON WITH THE LAKERS SETTING A CAREER HIGH OF 22 PTS.
