Why not Sign Allen Iverson for Backup PG duties?

[apalisoc_9]

- We badly need a PG with De colo and Cory sucking so bad

- Iverson badly needs a job which means he's going to play with a lot of motivation

- He's going to be cheap

- We have mills so this will be a perfect experiment to test if he can still play at all star level

- He's a proven competitor.

Ever wonder why he's been available for the last several years and yet nobody has signed him?

Yea, if the Bobcats aren't interested, then why would we be?

He would be great if he weren't the perfect example of the all time anti-spur.

Imagine S-Jax times 10. He would drive Pop absolutely mad.

Are you serious?

Avery is almost 50 years old. SMH

[mute]

why not sign avery?

... Avery is the coach of the Nets... that's like the Lakers signing Popovich while Kobe rehabs his injury

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Why not go fuck yourself?

You're bad at trolling, too obvious.

Cory Joseph > Allen Iverson.

I would rather have mediocre Joseph run point than trash-ass Iverson, who hasn't played in the NBA in years, and wasn't even a point guard when he did play. Make no mistake: Allen Iverson is a shooting guard. We effectively have 5 shooting guards already if you count Green, Manu, Belinelli, Patty Mills (skillset), and NDC (size).

Iverson at this point in his life is a bargain bin Patty Mills, without the team spirit or willingness to play off the bench.

Not a bad question tbh

[NickiRasgo]

He won't practice.

This is up there with that Diaw+Green for Shumpert thread.

Is this MUTE?

Ingenius thread from the OP, tbh

Sign Vernon Earl Monroe

[Vash StampedE]

A very unSpur-like player. Horrible suggestion

I'm actually having a hard time thinking of a player I'd want on the Spurs less than Iverson. If I had to sum up all that goes against the Spurs organization's philosophy in one word, it would be "Iverson".

[Boomersgold]

Allen Iverson? If the Spurs wanted a washed up, former All-star who really needs the cash, they'd sign Steve Francis.

What funny to me is the title of the thread, it could have been:
- Should the Spurs sign AI? or
- Can AI still play a few minutes in the NBA?

But no, the title is:
Why not Sign AI for Backup PG duties?

[th3answ3r]

look hes one of my fav players but I wouldnt want him on the team. He's out of shape and prbly hasnt touched a ball in the longest time. People on other forums I visit claim he spends his days at a mall in atlanta. The dude is broke

[Strategic]

To think I purposely avoided this thread. On the other hand his entourage of thugs might help sell a few more tickets.

Now after the choking incident that would probably make Jackson openly root for the lakers.....

[SpurCharger]

Bring back Negele Knight heard he is available for cheap

[Spursone]

Yeah, he would be great for scrimmage and PRACTICE.............. did he say PRACTICE!

[mathbzh]

Pop (a bit drunk): Allen, what about playing backup PG for us
AI: I am no backup, I am a starter, always have been

[Gagnrath]

Because Popovich doesn't want the headlines to be "storied spurs coach assaults future hall of fame and former MVP Iverson for mentioning practice excessively."
