I'm thinking of my Mom yelling from the other side of the kitchen: "Close the refrigerator door.  If you don't know what you want then obviously you aren't hungry!" This seems to be the thought process over at 333 East Trade these days.  "We just don't know what we want.  But we want something!" We all thought it was Allen Iverson last week, but we didn't really want him.  Brandon Bass, Rasheed Wallace, SideShow Bob, all off the table.  Who knows?  I don't.  I can't think about it anymore.  But I have ...

Via Free Darko  |  July 20, 2009
The days are not good for Allen Iverson. The one-time beacon of personal integrity, triumphal dysfunction, and "**** the world" stylistic rights currently sits out in the cold. He's hoping some team will look past his recent disappointments, figure several accelerated half-lives have made his legacy less radioactive, and give him a chance to make a roster like a blaxploitation...

Allen Iverson's Options: Money or Playoffs

Via Bleacher Report  |  July 19, 2009
What a difference a year makes. A year ago Allen Iverson was playing for the Denver Nuggets, making $20 million, and was considered a top 10-15 player. Fast forward a year later after playing for the Detroit Pistons and Iverson is viewed as the black plague that the league should avoid.

Sterling Wants Iverson; Does Anyone Else?

Via SLAM Online  |  July 20, 2009
