The New York Post is reporting that the Knicks might be willing to give guard Allen Iverson a look when he clears waivers. Iverson was released by the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday.
Our View: This looks like a long shot, as the Knicks showed very little interest in Iverson over the summer. If they do give him a chance, he will be in very much the same situation that he was in Memphis: coming off the bench for a team that isn't very good. The only difference is that the Knicks play in the bright lights of New York, and the Grizzlies play in obscurity in Memphis.

The New York Daily News is reporting that the Memphis Grizzlies are expected to sign former Pacers' guard Jamaal Tinsley. Tinsley missed the entire 2008-2009 season after being sent away by Indiana due to personal conduct.
Our View: It looks like the Grizzlies have a thing for troubled guards, and considering how well the Allen Iverson experiment is going, it makes perfect sense to bring in Tinsley. All joking aside, he will likely be on a short leash with this team, and as a backup to Mike Conley he isn't likely to have much, if any, fantasy value this season.

In the wake of his leave of absence from the Grizzlies, Yahoo! Sports speculates that it's possible Allen Iverson has played his last NBA game.
Our View: It's not far-fetched. He has proven to be a cancerous locker room presence on both of his past two teams, and shown a steadfast unwillingness to come off the bench. With the Grizzlies being the only team that showed any real interest in him last summer, it's conceivable no one will sign him if and when Memphis finally jettisons him.

AI takes personal leave of absence

According to the Twitter page of basketball writer Marc Spears, Grizzlies' guard Allen Iverson has taken a leave of absence from the team. The leave is not believed to be basketball related, and his return in uncertain.
Our View: Iverson has not been waived by the team, so it looks like he has just decided he doesn't want to play in Memphis anymore. This can't be viewed as a surprise, as AI has complained constantly since the season started, but we will have to see what happens with this situation going forward. Needless to say, this isn't good for AI in the fantasy world.

News: Even Allen Iverson is worried whether his tumultuous debut week with the Grizzlies has poisoned his relationship with another coach. Iverson came off the bench for Memphis for the third straight game Friday night, scoring eight points in 22 minutes during the Grizzlies' 114-98 loss to the Lakers. The 10-time All-Star says he has no interest in being a reserve or playing for a rebuilding team, and he immediately made his displeasure public with several barbed comments in the days following his season debut Monday.

Iverson livid
Source (fanball.com)
(PG - mem) | 0 comments.
Allen Iverson is very displeased with the lack of playing time he received in his Grizzlies debut on Monday, according to AOL Fanhouse.
Our View: "I had no problems (with the hamstring that had kept him out at the beginning of the season)," he said. "I had a problem with my butt from sitting on that bench so long. That's the only thing I got a problem with." Why, why, why did the Grizzlies choose to go down this path? Iverson has proven clinically incapable of understanding the arts of aging gracefully and sharing the ball, so it still defies logic that a team with O.J. Mayo and Rudy Gay on its roster would sign a player that is both so selfish and clueless. A.I. may eventually force his way into Memphis' starting lineup, but it will be for the benefit of no one but himself.

Richard Hamilton will miss his third consecutive game on Tuesday as he fights an ankle injury, according to the Detroit News.
Our View: The injury comes at an inopportune time for Hamilton, who was surely hoping to nail down a spot in the starting five after last year's debacle with Allen Iverson. With Ben Gordon now starting, and scoring, in his absence, we could eventually have another guard controversy on our hands in Detroit.

Allen Iverson is expected to make his Grizzlies debut on Monday in Sacramento, according to the AP. He has missed the first three games of the season with a strained hamstring.
Our View: Iverson may get off to a slow start as he has missed nearly all of the preseason. He will be in a three-man rotation with O.J. Mayo and Mike Conley. He still has a lot of fantasy potential, but it could be a while before he settles into a rhythm with his new team.
