A.I. A.W.L. From Grizzlies
You Been Blinded - Now in Dazzling HD —
The Memphis Grizzlies granted Allen Iverson permission to leave the team indefinitely to deal with a personal matter. Something urgent enough that Grizzlies owner Michael Eisley feels it shouldn’t be reported. Barbershop talk says A.I. wore out his welcome in Memphis. Eisley says he’ll be back but they need to work on his role.
Iverson doesn’t want to come off the bench and the Grizzlies don’t want him to start. The team wins that battle but the two sides have to figure out a way to play nice until Dec. 15 when A.I.’s eligible to be traded.

ONE: Pop Quiz: Who is THE in-form center in the league at the moment? If you answered Dwight Howard, you’d be incorrect. The correct answer is actually Chris Kaman. But who is the second most in-form center at the moment? That would probably be Andrew Bogut. Since looking very rusty in his first two games, the big Aussie has been picking up steam with the Bogomoter (TM) similarly soaring to never-before-seen heights. It all culminated in today’s huge 22 point, 8 rebound, 4 assist effort against the Knicks, which is – get this – his highest points total since April 16th 2008 (as usual, head over to Brew Hoop for the post-game ...

... Let’s say for instance, that Iverson isn’t going on strike and there’s a legit family/emergency tragedy here. Doesn’t it benefit both the player and the team to come up with something slightly more detailed given the additional dent to Iverson’s reputation, let alone his plummeting trade value? ESPN’s Chad Ford claims there’s zero interest around the Association in taking on Iverson. ...

Depressed Fan —
Allen Iverson requested and was granted an indefinite leave from the Memphis Grizzlies yesterday to deal with personal/family issues. There is now speculation that Iverson's career may be over.

Detroit Pistons win on a Sunday, and sadly that’s news

... But until I read Curry’s quote, I had no idea the off-the-court issues went so deep and had such an immediate impact in the team’s play.
So, although yesterday’s 88-81 over the Philadelphia 76ers isn’t that big of a deal in and of itself, it made me happy.
One Sunday win doesn’t prove the Pistons are partying any less on Saturday nights this year. But it’s a sign they’re not.
It’d be nice to know all of last year’s trouble is behind them. (And maybe in front of the Memphis Grizzlies).
But I won’t be tricked again. I know I ...

Here's a hint: both teams will be playing in Dallas on Tuesday. Okay, so it's obviously Dallas and Houston. But here's the odd thing: A is Houston, and B is Dallas.
Dallas has been surprisingly good on defense so far this season. Houston has been surprisingly great on offense. What's up with that?

Oh, wait, what, you mean the completely selfish ballhog who murders possessions and who refused to come off the bench for a team that made it to the ECF more than half a decade in a row is having trouble with the exact same issue six months later on a terrible team and may be leaving after only three games? Really? God, I can’t believe anyone could see that coming. That’s like ...
