except for the yanks

because of injuries and the fact the pistons were down 20, summers got to play. he promptly took two illadvised drives to the hoop and had his shot blocked. Ahh memories. But strangely enough the pistons made a bit of run when he was in to get the score closer.

Please refer to the Wizards as the Bullets.

Thanks.

It is a nice mix of wizards and bullets…

From today’s NY Daily News

With all signs pointing toward the Knicks signing Allen Iverson once he clears waivers at 6 p.m. on Thursday, the Miami Heat have become late entrants in the sweepstakes.

According to sources, the Heat are now “hot after” Iverson as well.

That could be because they are not happy with Mario Chalmers’ running of the offense, or because they simply want to make the Knicks pay more than the $1.4 million veteran’s minimum they will likely offer. The Knicks are still in control here, as Iverson won’t have to share the ball with Dwyane Wade in New York, while they still have a mid-level exception they can use if necessary. Then again, if AI wants to win a championship, he could decide to play in Miami if their interest is legitimate.

This late push has moved him up the all cancer team rankings. Tinsley, ZBO, Ricky Davis, Starbury and Darius Miles had better watch out.

Had the pleasure of watching Ricky Davis play in person on Tuesday night against the Hornets.

Unfortunately he didn’t get enough burn for me to see his patented grab rebounds off of my own basket to get a triple double, but he did spend the majority of his time during timeouts staring at the Honeybees instead of Coach Dunleavy.

Maybe he’s smarter than we think he is.

I think this would be awesome, mostly because Iverson is my favorite athlete ever and I want to see him keep playing, but also the fireworks he could produce in that offense could be awesome.

Bethlehem Shoals at the Sporting News agrees:

This is about Iverson as a national attraction, worthy of the biggest stage the league has to offer. Does this make a mockery of AI, or the Knicks? Only if you have something better in mind. It would good, harmless fun that might bring a degree of healing to all, and work to figure out who AI really is, and what his true place has been in the last decade. All because we’ll get several months of candid, charming Iverson who realizes he’s got the green light to, well, entertain and reflect at the same time. If Jay-Z can now record songs ready-made for the city’s bureau of tourism, why not Iverson’s basketball and the Knicks brand together for one meaningless season? It makes both relevant again.

So much for that.

THE KNICKS ARE A JOKE.
