PHILADELPHIA – The brother of Philadelphia 76ers president Pat Croce left as the team's conditioning coach after he was caught on videotape stealing money from Allen Iverson's pants in the locker room.

Pat Croce told The Philadelphia Inquirer that his brother, John, had been dismissed. When asked what the videotape showed, the owner said, "The actions speak for themselves." He paused, then added, "I felt sick."

General manager Billy King said he authorized the videotaping in the locker room, and he and Pat Croce said the tape showed John Croce stealing from the star guard.

The team originally announced that John Croce had resigned Jan. 12 to pursue other work.

Attempts by The Associated Press to reach John Croce were not successful Tuesday. The Inquirer and the Philadelphia Daily News, which also reported the story, said he did not return calls Monday.

King said he confronted John Croce about the tape and John Croce left the team soon after that. Pat Croce said he was not present when King confronted his brother.

"I found out about it the day Billy King showed me the video, the day we fired my brother," Pat Croce said. "I said, 'Call (John) in. Ask him pointed questions. Investigate this. If this is true, we'll have to take immediate action.' "

Neither the 76ers nor Iverson pressed criminal charges against John Croce.

Too funny...no? They probably had the cameras up so the ball kids and laundry people didn't steal. Instead they catch the white collar guy. HEHE

That's just too effing funny. I would've expected this from one of the ballboys or maintence workers, but never from one of the suits.
