On the Tube: Allen Iverson is talking about practice again
Allen Iverson was introduced to the Detroit media on Tuesday and spoke of how he will do anything Pistons head coach Michael Curry asks of him. That includes practice.
It's great to see AI poke a little fun at himself. The guy has grown up a lot in the last few years. His Philly exodus was a less-than-amicable breakup. Time will tell if this works, but it seems like the right move...

Iverson Set to Debut With Chauncey's Number?
The Allen Iverson era for Detroit begins tonight in Toronto. And for those wondering what would happen between Iverson and Rodney Stuckey for that all important jersey #3...it's been settled. The NBA simply wouldn't allow jersey changes in mid-season and if Iverson sticks around or if the Pistons keep him around next season -- he'll have to wait to open the checkbook until then.For...
Did Detroit get Allen Iverson to get Rasheed Wallace a weed-smoking buddy?
Basketball-wise, there is no other explanation other than that Joe Dumars traded away Chauncey Billups and Antonio McDyess for Allen Iverson other than he wanted to get Rasheed Wallace a weed-smoking buddy. This isn't a judgement on weed-smoking; it's quite possible that Wallace and Iverson will have a better time lighting up joints together than playing ball.

LeBron James talks about the Obama Win, Video
LeBron James talks about the Obama Win, Video. I'll let you watch the video to hear what he said. I am just really proud to see LeBron take a stance. He is my favorite baller, and I think we have seen him grow a lot, over the last year. He is a lot more vocal. [...]

Players who put up big numbers might not do the other things that help you win.
The fact that coaches and GM must look beyond stats, is the unssucceful pairing of Allen Iverson and Carmelo Anthony who never worked.Each of them needed ball in hand and too many shots, both were defensively not good and they each looked to pass only when they couldn't see the basket. See ...
No Point Guard, No Win
(Boulder-CO) Hey Chauncey, we need you! Never was it more apparent that the Denver Nuggets need Mr. Big Shot than in last night's loss to the Golden State Warriors. Sure, when everything was going right (like the in the first ten minutes) the Nuggets look unbeatable, but when the shots stop ...

Mo Williams gamble paying off...so far.
With LeBron James on the bench to start the fourth quarter, Mo Williams led the Cavs on a 13-0 run that pushed Cleveland past Dallas, 100-81.
How's this for a stretch of possessions to open the fourth quarter of a close game: Long jump shot, longer jump shot. Feed a teammate for a layup, then swish another jumper. Get another assist, then nail a 3-pointer from so deep that...
Let's Swap Aging Point Guards: Chauncey Billups for Allen Iverson
As has been reported by a number of news outlets, the Pistons and Nuggets agreed on a trade yesterday that sent Allen Iverson to Detroit in return for Chauncey Billups, Antonio McDyess and Cheikh Samb.
