I am already getting tired of all the rumors. Just send him somewhere. This might go on for a while also.

Warriors & Kings are intersted in AI

According to a league source, Golden State is the front-runner for Allen Iverson's services, offering a package that would include guard Baron Davis and a couple of young players. According to another league source, the Celtics remain on the list of teams in contention for Iverson, along with Minnesota, Indiana, Chicago, Denver, Charlotte, Sacramento, Dallas, and the Clippers.

There is speculation of Allen Iverson trade discussions with the Clippers that could net some combination of Corey Maggette, Sam Cassell, Zeljko Rebraca and a first-round draft choice, and whispers of talks with the Nuggets surrounding something that could include J.R. Smith, Eduardo Najera and Nene.

Indiana & Denver are at the top of the list.

I think I have heard every teams name at some point.

I agree, this is getting way to annoying for me....

Somes up about the way I feel...

 

I'd LOVE to see Iverson sporting Celtic green, but I don't think it'll happen. :cry:

Phill just tried to trade Iverson to the Bobcats but Iverson said he didn't want to play for them so the trade didn't happen.

 

 

Hard to say no if you don't have a "No trade clause".

No it's not, Billy King and the Sixer organization have a lot of respect for what AI has done for them for years and it isn't hard to understand why they would try to accommodate his wishes.

As usual, awesome article by Simmons and of course, spot on. As I said last year on this site when Isaiah Thomas was ketting killed on here, Billy King is actually worse. As much as I hate to see AI leave the team I've followed religiously for 23 years, I'm thrilled for him to get a shot to win a ring.

 

Please, just don't send him to anyone in the Atlantic.

Just out of curiosity where do you see him going and who do they get in return?

Not sure. My gut tells me that Billy King and Ed Snider desperately want to send AI to the Western Conference, but they have played this so poorly they are left with very little leverage. I do respect the fact that, within reason, they are trying to honor Allen's request to go to a contender. That really precludes the Kings and the Warriors. I still think the Wolves deal isn't done, but that could be wishful thinking on my part.

 

I may end up dead wrong, but I just can't believe for a minute they'll ship him to Boston.

King is awful. He has continuously put the wrong supporting cast around AI. Like HSSB said, he's the worst in the league.
