Iverson working to return to NBA

[Lakeshow24KB]

Except that he's reportedly the one turning down Dallas' D-League team and has also repeatedly turned down lucrative offers from China

You realize that D-League players only get 14-25 thousand dollars a year, right?

"I'm supposed to be the franchise player, and we out here talking 'bout practice. Not a game, not a game. We talkin' 'bout practice, man."

sometimes there just arent enough "like" buttons!!

If he was desperate for money, he'd take that on the chance it would get him back in the NBA. That still ignores the money he could be getting from China instead, too. He's clearly not in dire straits financially.

Come to the Knicks!!! We need a PG on the cheap.

man if people like kurt thomas mike james brian scaleerbrine etc get contracts might as well let allen iverson go for it

Link doesn't work.

Anyways, if Nash is 39 and still playing, Allen Iverson could definitely still play. He's quicker, stronger, and can draw a huge fan base even if he sucks. He will sell merchandise and tickets. A team like Bobcats or Phoenix could use him.. He can put up 15 PPG and at least 3 rebounds/5 assists per game. Still one of the quickest and elite scorers in NBA history. It's unfortunate that the only reason he's not playing in the NBA is because of his attitude. Coaches and management don't want a player who doesn't practice and has a negative aura. Let's just hope he grows up.

Memphis fiasco was ridicule enough.

filing miserably in europe was ashaming.

you want to make it worse?

Way to go A.I!!!!!!!!!!!

u really need to figure out what really happened with AI before you ever comment about him again..

[C-Dub]

AI, VC, Dirk, and Brand on a team.. man, a few years ago THAT would have been the dream team! i really hope he makes it back! I could see boston goin after him now maybe, at least to have him the rest of the season

[abe_froman]

he wont be back.too many burned bridges,no one will give him a chance

[LakersIn5]

[bootsy]

he wont be back.too many burned bridges,no one will give him a chance

Obviously someone is trying to give him a chance.

In search of.... cash

Actually I hope he plays one game in the NBA this year, because it will put off him getting into the HOF so it will delay all the media whores singing his praises when he is inducted.

[eibbor]

He isnt making it back to the NBA, ever, in any way... Period. He had his run but he is done, for a reason. He just doesnt have it anymore. Teams wont take a chance on him now... and for good reason. He gave his all for so long and now he just doesnt have it. Respect him but, hes done

[sep11ie]

Could you imagine a Mike James/Iverson backcourt? Yummy!

[eibbor]
