Will Allen Iverson Reunite With Philly?

Allen Iverson's NBA career looks set for revival after the disheartened point guard held talks with the Philadelphia 76ers.

ESPN.com's Marc Stein reported on Tuesday that Philadelphia, where Iverson played 10 seasons, is interested in picking up the playmaker after he was cut by the Memphis Grizzlies.

Iverson and his representatives sat down with 76ers management and head coach Eddie Jordan for more than two hours to discuss a deal.

"This afternoon, we met with free agent Allen Iverson in Dallas for the first formal discussion regarding a possible return to the Philadelphia 76ers," general manager Ed Stefanski said in a statement.

"At this time, both parties remain non-committal regarding a final decision and we will continue to discuss internally whether or not to pursue this course."

Iverson played just three games for Memphis this season before taking a leave of absence to attend 'personal issues'.

The New York Knicks considered signing the 34-year-old before deciding he would take too much playing time from developing players.

Vick, Eagles Agree? &+ A Clip Of 60 Mins With Vick, Coming Up This Sunday AUG 16, At 7:00 PM

Quarterback Michael Vick has signed a two-year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles, his agent, Joel Segal, confirmed to ESPN.com.

Vick arrived in Philadelphia Tuesday morning and remained there Wednesday evening. The Eagles will hold a news conference on Thursday morning to announce his signing.

Vick was the No. 1 draft pick in 2001, and once the highest-paid player in football. But he has not played since 2006 when his career came tumbling down. He was convicted in August 2007 of conspiracy and running a dogfighting operation, sentenced to 23 months in federal prison and suspended indefinitely by the NFL.

But after serving his time and being released from home confinement July 20, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell conditionally lifted Vick's suspension, allowing him to sign with a team.

Nate Robinson vs 50 Cent?! Dwight Howard Beef?

Earlier this Summer, New York Knicks star and Slam Dunk Champion Nate Robinson and fellow Seattelite Terrence Williams (now with the New Jersey Nets) sat down with DJ Whoo Kid and the crew at Sirius for a little pre-draft fun at the Saturday BBQ!

What does kryptoNate w ant to be known for? Why wouldn’t Dwight Howard answer his calls? Does 50 Cent think they look alike? Why did he play basketball instead of football? What kind of whips does he keep in the garage? How did so many guys from Seattle and the Pac NW get into the NBA?

What is Terrence Williams doing with his new NBA checks? Why is there such an imbalance in the NBA’s pay? Who did TWill call out on behalf of Nate Robinson in anticipation of the draft?

Whats Taking So Long For "Bubba Chuck" To Get Signed?

 

Whats going on in the NBA these days, when a player just half a season removed from being one of the Top 5 Scorers in the league cannot find a decent offer from an NBA franchise? So what if Allen Iverson had a terrible finish to the season with the Pistons last year. Does half a season negate all of the hustle this man has put in for the past decade plus? This guy is still one of the top talents in the league and can score buckets at ease.The big news out of Europe this week is that the Greece Olympia-cos are prepared to offer Allen Iverson a two year $10 million contract to come play for them, unlike Miami Heat offering him $1 million. Are they serious?

More and more, these European teams seem ready to pounce on players that clearly but butts in seats that NBA franchises fail to sign in a timely manner. So now the question is, will Allen Iverson take the $10 million and head overseas, or wait around hoping for an adequate NBA offer?
