what team do you think Allen Iverson should go to?

Question

Iverson has requested a trade to play for someone else

Answer 1

He should stay with the sixers, but if not go to the celtics

Answer 2

I think he would be just the thing to add to the celtics... although I think the celtics would also need to hold on to paul pierce. trade young talent and maybe a draft pick. next year-- iverson, pierce, and oden? nice. An iverson KG relationship would be nice too. Whoever it is... I know Iverson is going to have to step it up and play a bigger leadership role. He's not going to get to be the only superstar on his next team.

Answer 3

For the guy who said Celtics....AI + Pierce = Disaster. Look what happened to Marbury, Francis, and Crawford.

I say, and this will sound crazy, Seattle. Lemme explain:

Okay, first off, Seattle always has some injury so here is where AI can help to provide when guys are out. For example, Ray Allen is out now for like 7 games? Anyways, when he gets back, you got AI, Allen, and Ridnour, and Lewis. Seattle will hit so many shots it won't even be funny. And, I have absolutely no clue how or why, but Luke Ridnour and AI are close friends. Weird combo, but..
Seattle's possible starting 5:
PG-Luke Ridnour
SG-Allen Iverson
SF-Ray Allen
PF-Rashard Lewis (his original position is SF but i mean, he's 6'10, not putting him in the post is a crime)
C- Chris Wilcox with a dash of newcomer Johan Petro

Im no Seattle fan, (Bulls actually) but thats as far from Philly as hes gonna get.

Answer 4

Well heres the news:

The Dallas Mavericks and Boston Celtics have emerged as the leaders to trade for disgruntled Philadelphia 76ers star Allen Iverson, league executives told Yahoo! Sports on Friday night.

According to sources, 76ers general manager Billy King has targeted Mavericks guard Devin Harris – a favorite of the executive's going back to Harris' college days at Wisconsin – as a primary piece to a potential package with Dallas.

Mavericks owner Mark Cuban wouldn't deny that he's engaged in trying to make a deal for Iverson but wrote in an email to Yahoo! Sports on Friday night, "We wouldn't trade Devin."

King has been telling teams that he wants a combination of expiring contracts, young players and draft picks for Iverson. Sixers owner, Ed Snider, flatly said Friday night: "We'll trade him."

Several teams in the past few days have expressed interest in the 2001 NBA MVP and four-time league scoring champion, including the Denver Nuggets – who like Boston – discussed those trade possibilities with the 76ers before last June's NBA draft.



The Celtics have a deep roster of young players, including forward Al Jefferson and guards Delonte West, Sebastian Telfair and Rajon Rondo, to send to Philadelphia. Also, they have the weighty veteran contract of Theo Ratliff to help balance Iverson's contract in a deal.

The Minnesota Timberwolves, with a possible package of Ricky Davis and rookie guard Randy Foye out of Villanova, is also believed to be a factor.

What had long been a tumultuous relationship between Iverson and the 76ers reached a breaking point this week.

As the New York Post initially reported on Friday, Iverson asked King for a trade on Tuesday and the G.M. soon thereafter started exploring possible deals around the league. After missing practice on Thursday and a shootaround on Friday with apparent back spasms, Iverson said he was well enough to play in Philadelphia's game against Washington on Friday night.

However, Iverson said 76ers coach Maurice Cheeks told him to stay away from the Wachovia Center and informed Iverson that he wouldn't be traveling to Orlando for a Saturday meeting with the Magic.

After getting banished for two games, Iverson issued a statement through his agent Leon Rose that sounded like he was resigned to the inevitability of a trade. More and more, it sounds like his 11-year career in Philadelphia is coming to a close.

"As hard as it is to admit, a change may be the best thing for everyone," Iverson said. "I hate admitting that because I love the guys on the team and the city of Philadelphia. I truly wanted to retire a 76er.

Answer 5

In order:
1) Clippers - perfect balance, title contenders, big market in L.A. that would suit A.I., solid defensive team, great 3,4,5 men inside that can compliment A.I. and vice versa, among the top rebounding teams in the league, no one else on the Clips that need to take 30 shots as A.I 's game requires
2) T-Wolves - Garnett + A.I. (but it's too cold for A.I's taste)
3) Sonics - Ray Allen + A.I.
4) Pacers - Jermaine + A.I.
5) Celtics - whose game would fade more as they take less shots, Pierce's or A.I's?
6) Hawks - just not contenders

Answer 6

He will go to a team with a manager willing to accept his style, there are not too many manager in the NBA like his style of playing.
