Allen Iverson leaves Grizzlies, may come back to Denver? Coach Karl says maybe

He asked to leave and they let him go.

But....

Coach George Karl said that AI may come to Denver again IF, and it's a big IF, Ty Lawson gets injured.

It's just a possibility but nothing set in stone.

That was fast.

[QUOTE="-Halftime-"]Quitter. The one word I'd used to describe AI besides selfish. These are the reasons I can't stand the guy. Gary Payton(Who is a better player, btw, then Allen ever was) even came off the bench to help his team compete. AI only cares about his self.II-FBIsniper-II

Iverson is like the worst scoring leader of all time lol.

a.i has only him self to blame the heat showed a slight intrest but his ego is if im not starting im not playing well what does it say when no team wants to trade for u even to use your expiring contract for next season go home it was a great career.

Here's my thoughts on AI:

He is definitely one of the best small guards to ever play the game. Only Isaiah Thomas can be considered better, IMO, because of the rings. But still, AI is great and a hall of famer for sure.

But that's the problem. He's so good and can be a great team leader or point guard IF he wanted to. He has the talent, skills, the ability, the wisdom, and everything that can make up a great leader or roll player on a any championship team! Seriously, he can be a great point guard. I'm sure he's got the skills to be one.

He has a few years still left in him to make an impact! Why doesn't he do what Payton tried to do at the end of his career and win a ring before he retires?

But he doesn't want to do this. He still wants to be "Me, Myself, and A-I!"And look what it's doing to him? He's thinking about retiring now, without a ring!

I don't understand this. He has the talent and wisdom to be a great team player. But he doesn't want to be. I mean, at his age he can do this! Why doesn't he want to?

Makes no sense to me.

He needs to retire before this gets any worse.

are u suprised?

I think it's time for him to just hang it up altogether.

I think it is best for both parties. AI doesn't want to be there and Memphis needs to let their young guys get some minutes and increase their talent. Now if AI would sign up with the Lakers or Celtics then it would get interesting, realllllllll interestinggggg.Lostboy1224

This is good. A future Hall of Famer in his last few years does not belong on a terrible team. He could definitely help Kobe Bryant in L.A. or LeBron in ClevelandWadeFan

IF he's willing and willing to come off the bench if he needs to without complaining about it.

Then yeah, I'm sure any team would take him if that were the case.

its over for Iverson he wants to be the star but hes not that good anymore and is not a team player

He just doesn't have it anymore. Last year he was the 4th best guard on a less than .500 team with a 3 guard rotation, thats why he was put on IR. He is only good enough to ride the pine and if he isnot happy with that he needs to retire.
