GMs Don't Think Iverson Is Worth The Trouble

The overwhelming belief among NBA general managers is that Allen Iverson
isn't worth all the trouble that could come along with him.
"It's a really dicey question," one general manager said, according to
NBA.com.
However, unless he decides to retire, Iverson is likely to find a home before
the start of the 2009-10 season.
"As a GM, it would be interesting to find out how many GMs with
playoff-caliber teams would be willing to even give the veteran's minimum,
where the league picks up a large percentage of the salary," the same
executive said. "Even at the minimum, you're going to go through training
camp and one or two months of the season trying to get the experiment to be
successful. I would venture to say that 30 percent or less of playoff GMs
would have him for the minimum."
Iverson isn't opposed to signing a one-year deal, but sources close to the
guard claim that the circumstances would have to be right.
"There are different scenarios impacting AI at the same time," another GM
told NBA.com. "One of them is economic, another is the recent performance of
his last two teams -- Denver and Detroit -- and not necessarily his
performance, and another is teams protecting space for next summer.
"All of those line up. Another probable factor is what he's asking for. I
don't think it is one thing. It's a multitude of factors."
