Allen Iverson's contract expires at the end of the season, but the future Hall of Famer still plans to play six more seasons in the NBA.

Iverson, who has taken a beating throughout his entire career, will be 39 in 2014.

"I know you guys have put me in a rocking chair already," Iverson said. "When the time comes and we have a game and you put that scouting report up and my name isn't one of the first or second names on that scouting report and I can't dominate like I used to, then I don't want to play no more. I won't do anything to tarnish my legacy."
