It's no secret that Allen Iverson and his wife Tawanna have had their fair share of problems. But, this is starting to get out of control now.

On December 4, AI's $4.5 million Atlanta mansion was set to be auctioned off after he allegedly defaulted on a $1.2 million mortgage that he'd taken out on the house. But, right before the auction was set to take place, Iverson filed a lawsuit against the lender who gave him the mortgage and claimed that he'd never actually agreed to the terms of the mortgage. Instead, he says that Tawanna had agreed to the terms in an effort to screw him out of money by roping him into a mortgage that she knew he couldn't afford.

As a result of the lawsuit, the auction for the home has been canceled. At least for now. Click through the thumbs to take a look at photos of the mansion. If that mansion's walls could talk, they'd probably have some pretty crazy stories to tell.
