Los Angeles Lakers forward Metta World Peace admitted that he was almost forced into retirement due to back pains. World Peace had lost his athleticism and it was clear that he was no longer the player he once was. He thought that was a result of his injuries and was close to leaving the NBA. However, after his 26-point performance against the Spurs, World Peace has shown the world he still has basketball left in him.
