Mephis might have 'The Answer'
August 31st 2009 18:22
A few days ago, I was informed that the Grizzlies were interested in signing Allen Iverson. Firstly the information that was given to me, came from A.I's Twitter page. Not to say that Twitter isn't a reliable source of information, but I have my doubts about whether or not A.I is just playing games with us. I have heard a lot of outlandish statements and claims on Twitter, and I can safely say 80% of them were total B.S! I promised I wouldn't blog about it, but all doubts aside, what if this were actually to happen? We all know the Memphis Grizzlies could use Iverson!
Just think of the offensive powerhouse the Grizzlies could become with A.I. on their squad. Picture having Rudy Gay, O.J Mayo, Allen Iverson, Marc Gasol and Hasheem Thabeet as your stating 5. Then having Mike Conley, Marko Jaric and Darrell Arthur as potential Sixth men. Not to mention the rest of the bench, who I might add are quiet a talented bunch of ball players. Although Iverson is aging and his productivity seemed to have reduce last year after being traded; Iverson is still a 25pts and 8ast threat on an above average night. People have written him off way to soon. Iverson on his worst night, is better than 50% of the guards in the league (you know its true). I think he still has a lot of juice left in the carton. A move to Memphis might help A.I get back into the swing of things. You could clearly see that Detroit isn't the right place for him! Seeing A.I. coming off the bench, is like seeing Superman around Cryptonyte (It just ain't right!).
Allen Iverson is one of the greatest athletes of our time. Although he may not have been the easiest player to appreciate due to all the drama he has caused his fans and his team-mates. There is no way you can deny that Allen Iverson will go down as one of the greats. If Memphis can wok out some sort of deal to get A.I, he can immediately help Memphis win games. He can also help with inspiring and tutoring the newbie superstars (O.J Mayo, Rudy Gay and Mike Conley). Regardless of whether this will happen or not, I won't be disappointed. At least its has given me something to think about other than Health Care reform and the GFC.
The Next Generation
