AI for one more season?

Allen Iverson soon to be a Grizzle?

As of what is left in the disappointing but incredible career of AI, he is looking at his last possible contact with a mediocre team named the Memphis Grizzles.

After the trade to the Nuggets, AI's career went down hill as he had two disappointing seasons being teammates with hotheaded Carmelo Anthony.

After the third year in Denver and his contract coming off the books, the Nuggets traded AI in the first weeks of last season to the Detroit Pistons, where he will complain and stress out on being put on the bench and come off for Richard Hamilton.

The Pistons got worse well the Nuggets made it to the Western Conference Finals as the lost to the will be NBA Champions Los Angeles Lakers.

Allen Iverson who was the No. 1 pick in the 1996 NBA draft, was a increable player who was spectacular and was a fan favorite to many fans including me.

His high point would have to be when he lead the Philadelphia 76ers to the NBA Finals in 2001, where they would lose to the would be Los Angeles Lakers. His low point would have to be last year's season with the Pistons, as everything for him and the Pistons got worse everyday.

I really hope he gets to play for one more season even though he can't play like he did in his prime years because no matter how rude he can be, the man was a great baller who could brake anyone's ankles who tried to guard him, including the great Kobe Bryant.
