by Todd Spehr Can you believe Allen Iverson
is 33 years old? It just seems like yesterday
that he broke into the league, rockin’ those red Sixers unis with that mini fro, putting up points and amassing critics, all while defying the ...
A.I.2 Photo. Kelly Turso Andre Iguodala has had
a busy summer. Long, drawn out contract negotiations ended
with a nice $80 million deal with the Sixers. His squad added Elton Brand and some other free agent pieces and now suddenly find themselves ...
Allen Iverson will be 33-years-old at the start
of the upcoming 2008-09 NBA season, but does age
really affect Allen Iverson? Well, “the answer” (sorry, bad pun intended) is an emphatic NO! Iverson seems to be an immortal on the hardwood and will be entering his 13th season in the league. Wow, so I feel old.
Carmelo (photo. Mannion) Charles Barkley was at the
Democratic National Convention in Denver yesterday, but he's pretty
mainstream-famous with the older crowd; imagine the scene at the front door if Carmelo, Allen Iverson and J.R. Smith rolled up ...
I had a creepy feeling watching Ron Artest
get that wild ovation when the Rockets introduced him
Monday. It just doesn't seem right. This guy has been a poster boy for bad behavior, with everything from domestic violence to...
(Boulder-CO) The Prodigy will be in Denver for
at least the next three years reports The Denver
Post 's Chris Dempsey. The Denver Nuggets re-signed J.R. Smith today to a three-year contract with undisclosed terms in what is most likely their last move of the off season. This Summer Smith was asked to join USA Basketball's Select Team that practices against the Senior National Team. Smith, ...

has slowed for us all and Stan Kroenke's 2.1
billion dollar net worth might have shrunk a few million, but his competitiveness and love for basketball should mean something right? Thanks ...
The United States got the only team it
really wanted in the semifinals, the last team to
defeat it on the Olympic stage. Four years ago in Athens, Argentina delivered the final salvo to a flawed U.S. team that featured Tim Duncan, Allen Iverson, no ...
Athlete and rapper. Together at last like peanuts
and gum. There's not much better than hearing athletes
embarass themselves on wax. "I'm great on the field or court so how could I not also be good at the rap game." The list of wack sports rappers is long. Kobe, AI, Neon Deion , Shaq, Chicago Bears, MC Hammer (well he was a batboy). Who was the first athlete to go solo on wax? I'm not sure ...
If you are judging every move from the
viewpoint of does it make the team better three
years from now then the answer ought to be it doesn't fit in well at all.
Could Allen Iverson end up a Cavalier? Cavs
Board is skeptical but discusses the possibilities.
This is probably the only interview Axl Rose
has done in the last decade where he wasn't
asked about Chinese Democracy. If it did ever come out, wouldn't it be invisible in record stores, like a tree falling in a forest? ...
Fact or fiction...Kobe and Lebron crossing the pond?
Most likely the only thought roaming through the minds
of sports maniacs, well, besides the historic breathtaking comeback by the American men's 4X100 freestyle relay team. Call me crazy, but I think its the Olympic buzz buzzing their heads, or quite possibly the opinion of many Bleacher Report freaks: http://rawsportsblog.com/?p=1470
• Tom Brady knows that he's just a
handsome man chucking an oblong ball made of dead
pig: " Look at the attention I get: It's because I throw a football. But that's what society values. That's not what God values. God could give a shit, as far as ...
Anyone who has followed this blog since it's
inception knows that I'm a big Allen Iverson fan
. I was all for the trade to bring him to Denver in December 2006, regardless of the 1-8 playoff record that has resulted since. In fact, I hadn't given up ...
You think the Super Bowl gets an audience?
Try one billion viewers. That’s “billion.” With a “b.”
And that’s how many people got a chance to see the LeBron-dubbed “Redeem Team” steamroll the host country China, 101-70, in a game that could have been far more out-of-control than that if the Americans had liked it that way. (more…)
As I’ve been paying a close eye to
the Iguodala situation (with the latest proposal being five
years, 72.6 million) , I’ve come to realize that he is under appreciated around here. Of course, that’s nothing new with Philadelphia ...
Charles Barkley? Allen Iverson? Dennis Rodman? Let's get
this discussion going!
The offseason is winding down, there's precious little
fodder out there, so why not go over a
list of un-signed free agents, as several other sites have done ? Today, we're taking on the forwards, and the list directly reflects who I think can help a team the most from top-to-bottom. Or, toward nearly the bottom, because I just started throwing names out there at the end. Andre ...

may never win a title, here is the NBA's
five greats that may never taste an NBA championship. http://rawsportsblog.com/?p=1449
Was informed that the story missed the Kemp
and Barkley cases.
Several websites had reported that Donnie Walsh and
the Knicks were in talks for this 3-way deal
to happen, which would have brought Allen Iverson and Marcus Camby to NY: Knicks give: Stephon Marbury David Lee Zach Randolph Jamal Crawford Future 1st Round Pick 2.5$ Mil Cash Knicks Receive: Allen Iverson Marcus Camby 2nd Round pick (from Nuggets) Clippers Give: Marcus Camby Tim Thomas ...
