    Well, Memphis WAS stupid enough to trade for Randolph...signing AI would def. not be beneath them.

    Memphis will be very good.
    I hope Rockets can catch up with them soon.

    a lot of ppl are talking about bringing in AI [using the vet minimum] for offense while Yao is out.

    1 - AB / AI / Lowry
    2 - AI / Battier / Barry / Taylor
    3 - Ariza / Battier / Budinger / White
    4 - Scola / Landry / Cook
    5 - Hayes / Scola / Dorsey

    What makes you think Iverson would ever sign for the vet minimum?

    Iverson should go to Europe. I'm sure some team will let him take a ton of shots and be the main attraction.

    Really? Don't they actually play team ball instead of being ISO-heavy? If he goes to Europe AI would get even less PT than Brandon Jennings

    I mean he has been in the NBA for like 14 years right? Isnt that the course for all superstars? Hes has and passed his prime. Hes the best "small" scorer EVER, yes better than Isiah Thomas too give him a break

    For the Vet's minimum salary, why not? Low risk and He can hopefully contribute in the backcourt. He still commands a double team and this would be good for guys like Ariza to do their thing.

    Grizzlies looking to offer 1yr at 5mil. Interesting. Well... not really that interesting. They could actually flip him for a pick before the deadline though.

    Interesting, If the Rockets can not find any front court help with the MLE. Why not offering AI the same offer. Its just one year. :)
