| I think Felton would have been a better pick up for them though
he's younger and more of a team player | |

| That is a decent line up. I think the 76ers would achieve moderate success if they were to pick up Iverson. The only thing is that AI is not much of a team player and some players on the 76ers need to improve on their basketball IQ (it was especially evident during the playoffs this past season). Interesting news though. | |

| AI back to the Sixers is the best situation I can think of for him. If he signs, they become a contender for the 4th spot in the East and a prime candidate to upset somebody in the first or second round. | |

| That would be great for Philly if AI returned, he was definitely a fan favorite. Unfortunately though this isn't the same AI we've seen for a while now nor is it the same team Philly had 5 years ago. So who knows where this would be headed if AI returned. | |

| I love AI he is my favorite player in the NBA now along with Tim Duncan and tied with TD as my 2nd favorite player of all-time both trailing only Patrick Ewing. Although, I would love to see him back where he belongs in Philly. They will not have a better team than what the Bobcats would have if AI reunited with Larry Brown. Brown is a much better coach than Sam Mitchell and the team has better players than Philly. It is styled the same way Philly was in the height of his career in that they are a young defensive oriented team. He can be the AI he has always been in this system better than he would be if he rejoined Philadelphia. This is the same AI if you studied his game he hasn't lost his speed it is just that he does not work well under a half-court system and Detroit was a project gone wrong. In Denver he became a better all-around player than his Philly days averaged more assists and had career FG% totals even was a scoring beast averaging in the high 20's and still going off for 50 while for the first time in his career not leading his team in shot attempts. It is inconceivable for him to drastically fall off like that in 1 season. It was the system not that he slowed down. Look at when he first started the season in Denver this year he was shooting 45% from the field, which of course leveled off considerably in Detroit, but like I said before it is the system and the fact that Curry was an inexperienced coach and the whole team in general did not perform well under this change. Charlotte has better players than Philadelphia. Plus, Raja Bell and AI are familiar with one another being that they were both on that 2001 Philly Finals team. PG. RAYMOND FELTON - DJ Augustin (1 of the best/youngest backcourt duos in the NBA. DJ has been linked as an AI type player. AI would be a godsend for DJ in this the early stages of his career. Philadelphia by trading Dre' have no true/proven PG's.) SG. ----ALLEN IVERSON - DJ Augustin, Gerald Henderson SF. RAJA BELL - Great defender and perimeter shooter PF. GERALD WALLACE - So, much better than Iguodala. I think Iggy is a good player. Just not a 1st or 2nd option. His o game is flawed. G.Force is the real deal. C. TYSON CHANDLER - Can contribute Charlotte's bench is by far better than Philadelphia's 6th. Boris Diaw - Can do anything on the court really, oh so versatile 7th. DJ Augustin 8th. Vladimir Radmanovic - Is an underrated defender and a good perimeter shooting big 9th. Gerald Henderson - Pretty good 10th. DeSagana Diop - Good defensive presence |

| That would be a great place for Iverson to end his career, the same place he started it with and flourished in. It will also help the 76ers, as Iverson is still a great player and can be that veteran player with playoff experience that the 76ers lacked this offseason | |

| I think getting a ring is history for AI. He's the scapegoat for Detroit's failures last season, so no teams think he can contribute. All the good teams don't want him, and only the average/bad ones do. But it's ok. He's still the best little man in NBA history. A lot of great players don't have rings, like Dirk, Nash, Carter, Reggie Miller, and Charles Barkley | |

| Of all the guys you mentioned Raza, I think Iverson is the best. If he finishes his career averaging 20 and 7 for 3-4 more years, then he will probably my choice for best player without a ring. | |

I see where you are coming from. And it is very arguable. But you cant overlook K. Malone. In his career he averaged 25 PPG, 10 RPG, 1.5 SPG. while making it to 2 NBA finals. Like I said though, it is very arguable, and either side would have a good case | |

| If Iverson DOES win a ring than he would, further solidify being the greatest little man in NBA history. IMO | |
