Allen Iverson and Miami Heat in talks

[kobefanatic]

please sign iverson i would love for it to happen, the team would fall apart faster than expected

[kobefanatic]

Why don't they just bring in MJ, Bird, and Johnson now too. Maybe get Kareem, Bill Russell, or Wilt Chamberlain... Am I leaving anybody out?


Oh, what about seeing about a sign and trade for Kobe

oh please hell no, kobe doesn't need to jump ship to win a chip, kobe has enough balls to be the number 1 guy on his team unlike leQUEEN, leFAKE, leBROOM, leBRONZE, leCHOKE, leTANK who needs to jump ship to try and win a chip with other superstars and try to get credit for all of it

[LordVodka]

Now they're reporting Derek Fischer is going to meet with Riley.

[d2bets]

If I was a free agent I would tell my agent he is fired if he doesnt get me on that team for the minimum.

Bullcrap. So if you have a 5 year $35 million offer on the table you're going to go to Miami for $1.2 mil for 1 year with a lockout looming? This is a job. You take the money. It's one thing is you're Lebron and it's the difference between 90 million and 120 million. But for most guys the money matters and they need to stash it away.

[purecarnagge]

stfu fag nuts seaborne. AI is a legend and deserves to go out with a ring

right up until MJ took him to the woodshed and schooled his ass...

[beanbag]

wow put AI and shaq with those 3 and you will win a championship! ..at least before cleveland

you know I was kidding right? Even if it was possible Kobe would veto it. He has the no trade clause. Not Kobe's style.

yeah i know i was just taking shots at leTRAITOR , kobe always want to be the clear cut number 1 guy so he won't go there

[hoopster42]

kobe was the number 2 guy on the lakers when they won in 2000, 01, 02 (shaq was finals mvp all three years) so kobe ran shaq out of town in 2004

[EmpireMaker]

Why does anyone think Shaq is any good at all ?????

[EmpireMaker]

Shaq is old and out of shape and gets injured he is a negative to any team !!!!

[kobefanatic]

kobe was the number 2 guy on the lakers when they won in 2000, 01, 02 (shaq was finals mvp all three years) so kobe ran shaq out of town in 2004

kobe was developing back then and they're like options 1a and 1b, shaq was in his prime and pretty much unguardable, shaq in 04 was near his decline and it's the lakers management who did that decision to stick with kobe, kobe may have made the management choose between him and shaq but it's the lakers organization's call

you shouldn't be here right now because your guarantee failed leave for the whole summer ehh?

[3PtShooter]

they sure are a cocky trio

[SBR_John]

AI in this role which is pretty much coming off the bench would be fine maybe even great.

[Chuck Sims]

Shaq? Who else, Delonte West?

[joe blow]

Signing Shaq % Iverson...That's going to be some fun team to watch

[poochiecollins]

oh please hell no, kobe doesn't need to jump ship to win a chip, kobe has enough balls to be the number 1 guy on his team unlike leQUEEN, leFAKE, leBROOM, leBRONZE, leCHOKE, leTANK who needs to jump ship to try and win a chip with other superstars and try to get credit for all of it

Uhh, you're saying Kobe's won rings with bad teams? Your display picture is also somewhat nonsensical because, even if you wanted to argue that LeBron and Kobe are approximately equal, Kobe's been in the league much longer.

Edit: actually, Kobe's not as old as I thought, but he still has 14 seasons to LeBron's 5, and LeBron has more efficient scoring, passing, blocking and rebounding numbers. You'd have to say that Kobe is a much better defender than LeBron to say the former's better.

[necro]

Ring chasers. I hope that Shaq won't return to Miami.

[masr]

AI is washed up

[seaborneq]

AI is washed up

Don't say that, AI's bitch OMgUrMom will be upset.

kobe won with teams built around him with him as the CLEAR CUT number 1 guy unlike lebron who has to join wade and bosh just to win a ring with possibly no clear cut number 1 guy

did lebron just played 5 seasons? he started in 2003 and it's 2010 now that's 7 seasons what are you smoking? besides kobe isn't a STATSWHORE like lebron he cares more about his stats than his teams victory, kobe is a better on ball defender than lebron but lebron is a better weakside defender because he is better athletically

[Ryangene]

AI is a punk and doesn't deserve a ring.

[Tree Rollins]

So Iverson would be ok with coming off the bench and sometimes only shooting like 3 or 4 shots a night?

[poochiecollins]

MJ was known for being a great b-ball player, not his intelligence.

kobe won with teams built around him with him as the CLEAR CUT number 1 guy unlike lebron who has to join wade and bosh just to win a ring with possibly no clear cut number 1 guy did

What is wrong teaming with other good players? The NBA's communist rules limit player salary, so if you're a top star who can't get market value, why would you at least not try to get with other good to great players? I'm surprised this isn't done more often.

Name ONE current or past player who's been part of multiple championships and appears underrated by the public. By this, I mean a player who has multiple rings with similar stats to someone who has fewer or none where the latter player or players is/are considered better by most people.

lebron just played 5 seasons? he started in 2003 and it's 2010 now that's 7 seasons what are you smoking?

Typo

You're playing Kobe's lawyer, sidestepping the facts. If it's not a Disney sports movie, stats matter. Also, for the record, none of LeBron's stats that I've referred to are the type to be inflated from playing on a bad team.

A couple of years ago - no. But playing for Riley in Miami as the maybe even the 7th man? Yea, I think it could work. AI is a lot older and probably a bit more humble and I'll bet he could fit in nice getting 16 all-out quality minutes a night.

That's what i thought last season. And he proceeded to completely quit on 2 teams.

[jjgold]

AI has had some off court problems which has lead to his erratic play the last few seasons

Hopefully he sorted it all out

MJ knows who is the closest thing to him

he did it in a cowardly way, if he wants to leave cleveland from the get go, he should have done it more gracefully

scottie pippen he's a great player but what does the public say about him?

lebron didn't have a bad team for the past few years, if having jamison a former all star, a good but not great player, varejao a great hustler player and mo williams, an old shaq is bad then what will you call the team that kobe played with in 05-07? only lamar is good but inconsistent and the rest is shit

[youngerthree]

really that is funny

[eidolon]

iverson? please stay in retirement

[Bigpete2010]

Thats what im talkin bout!!!

[Betting Guru]

I think that he would be lucky to even get a chance to play on this team. No doubt that he will take under a mil to play on this team.

[plzkthx]

So how much cap space does the Heat even have left?

[nbarlotta3]

Like the Heat need anymore big name players.

[Cappinpicks]

might as well add shaq if you add iverson
