IVERSON'S trade value couldn't be lower right now. 2yrs ago PHILLY was going to trade IVY straight up for STACKHOUSE. I say trade SPREWELL, THOMAS, ANDERSON & 2004 1st & 2nd rd pick for IVERSON & D.C. !!! <P> PHILLY'S LINEUP <P> C=MUTUOMBO PF=THOMAS SF=MCKEE SG=SPREWELL PG=SNOW <P> KNICKS LINEUP <P> C=D.C. PF=MCDYESS SF=HOUSTON SG=IVY PG=WILLIAMS <P> If it doesn't work out with IVY, then we have a good bargining chip for next summer with big names available like DUNCAN & MOURNING. Ithink IVY would tear up the league because everyone turned their backs on him in his time of need, EXCEPT NEW YORK & he would love us for that. What do you think ???

Iverson's behavior and history are to shakey for me to build a team around him.

I wonder if Philly would do an Iverson and scrubs for Houston and Thomas exchange?

I could see that happening actually, Iverson is such a headache, they must be getting tired of him by now...New York is New York though. I can't imagine Iverson's problems getting any better in this city. You can't get into trouble so easily living the lifestyle Iverson is accustomed to...

...However, it's possible that the old scenery and baggage from AI's early days is part of the problem. The fact that NYC is BIGGER than AI might work in his favor.

Mason is an exception here...

Man, I'd do that trade in a nanosecond. Without one iota of hesitation. We'd be getting back to being a hardcore team again.

Folks hated on Spree and look at him here in NY. I like that edge Iverson has- definitely not the softee type.
Another season, and more adversity to persevere through. We will get the job done, even BETTER than last year. GO KNICKS!

Ok - I admit it's a cool thought - the 'BAD BOY CORNROW BACKCOURT..."

...stack the frontcourt and our issue is resolved.

I see no problem with that at all.

There’s o way I’d put Spree in a trade for AI. Spree’s skillset is more valuable to a team than AI’s.

Iverson has been an MVP, on the first or second all-NBA team every year, and is 27. Spree is 32. Just for that factor I'd do the trade.

If Iverson turns out to be a cancer you could still trade him, but I doubt this is happening, Philly could probably get a much better package (guys on the block like Baron Davis, Andre Miller, Rasheed Wallace, it's tough to imagine them trading for Spree and throws in and picks.)

Philly wouldn't take on Houston's contract IMO. Portland could offer Bonzi and DD if they wanted to...

Nah guys. This project won`t work. I don`t want this guy in our team. This guy`s going to take every shot, this might work in Philly but not with the Knicks. I like this guy as much as I like Shawn Bradley. He`s Iverson`s the right man for lousy teams to get some wins. But you`ll never ever win a championship with a player like him.

Well if you could ship out AH, I'd love to get Ray Allen instead of AI.
