    I know he seemed to be a chemistry killer, but since we are losing von and we might keep ron what would be your thoughts of a iverson and ron running the show till Yao shows up maybe by the end of the season? With brooks, iverson, ron, battier, scola and maybe gortat could we make a serious push. Thats not to mention that tmac can possibly come back late as well. Perhaps we can low ball him for 3 year contract with a team option?

    Nah, no dice.

    Iverson skillset is not for Adelman offense.

    he can create theres no doubt about that, thats something we have been missing since tmacs been out, right now it might be our chance to get one at bargain price. Plus he does sell jersey so Les might like the pickup

    Why not? If he signs for the MLE he'd be a steal. This team has a tendency to go through long scoring droughts.

    Ain't no way. The Rockets need to do more than sell jerseys.

    Why? What's the point? For what? Iverson is not going to help us get to the next level. Motion offense is what is going to create shots for others.

    I am just saying he could hold the fort for us to have playoff berth, if we only have brooks and we get ron again without yao and tmac i dont see us making the playoffs, the west is just too deep

    That's all that will be left after we sign Gortat to the full MLE.

    Iverson does not equal playoffs.

    I'll kiss a monkey's ass if AI accepts vet's min. I think he'd rather retire. And I'd rather not hear the inevitable b****ing in the middle of the season about him not getting enough shots and Adelman not using him correctly.
