PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Allen Iverson's injured tailbone might force him to miss Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals.

Iverson flew with the Philadelphia 76ers to Milwaukee on Friday afternoon, and when asked if he would play Saturday, replied: ``Doubt it.''

``I'll make a final decision tomorrow,'' Iverson said from the team plane. ``If I have to adjust my game, then I won't play. I don't know how to play any way other than the way I play.''

Sixers coach Larry Brown preferred Iverson stay home and get more rest.

``I don't want him going out there where he can't play and it affects him the next game,'' Brown said. ``We wouldn't be in this position if it wasn't for him and what he's done. It's a pretty sensitive thing and I think the decision has to come from him. I can advise him, but ultimately he's going to make the determination if he plays or not.''

Iverson, who has fought injuries all season, struggled Thursday night as the Bucks beat Philadelphia 92-78 to even the best-of-seven series at one apiece.

The NBA's MVP and scoring champion missed 15 of his first 17 shots and finished 5-of-26, including 0-of-8 from 3-point range.

After the game, Iverson, who always wants to play despite any injury, said he has to consider sitting out if he's hurting the team.

``I don't think he's ever hurt our team,'' Brown said. ``In his mind, he knows he can play better. We need him considering who we don't have.''

I hate Philly, so I would love to see them lose any way they can.
