    Iverson to the Hawks?

    Posted on ESPN Insider, so I can't provide the link. The Hawks might be willing to offer Harrington (sign and trade) and Childress or their lottery pick in a package for Iverson.

    Iverson would love that I'm sure. He'd probably retire if that trade went down.

      Saw a rumor for a trade to Atlanta this time last year.

      Would be a great deal for Atlanta. Harrington is a FA, so getting AI for Childess and/or their lottery pick for AI is a great deal.

      If they trade Childress, the draft pick, and Harrington, their lineup:

      PG - AI
      SG - Joe Johnson
      SF - Josh Smith
      PF - Marvin Williams
      C - Zaza
      6th - Stoudamire

      Not bad. Lots of young, young talent.

      With a lottery pick, and the team they currently have, I wonder if the 76ers would target Randy Foye or Marcus Williams.

        I heard Harrington is pass his last year for that team. Heard that Chicago was thinking about getting him in the off-season. I can pretty much see that as a trade falling through. I think that Philly is going to be pushing for something better than that. Iverson sales tickets and I'm sure Atlanta wants that. Would definitely look interested to see Joe Johnson and Iverson look like playing together.

          Harrington and Childress for Iverson....and you thought Sixer home game attendance was bad last season.

          I'd love to see AI traded - to a contender. Not to a rebuilding team where his chances of winning anything would actually be worse than they are currently with the mess that is the Sixers. And while he's the Sixers only tradable commodity right now, I really don't think those two players (or one and a draft pick) are enough to balance the loss of a gate attraction and marquee player like AI.

          What it comes down to is, I hope the Sixers have more respect for AI at this point in his career than to trade him to a team like Atlanta.

            ^ haha they werent lying when they said rowand would become a legend in philly.


            If I were Philly I'd accept Harrington, Childress, + number 1 pick this year, not a combo of them but all 3.

            The dynasty will return

              I definately don't want to see A.I. go to Atlanta because he's my favorite bball player but the Sixers fan in me is intrigued because Al Harrington and a first rounder are probably the best we can get.

                I dont think that Iverson should be traded to Atlanta. I dont think that he will enjoy his time there but that is my opinion.

                  I think somehow Iverson will end up with KG in Minny

                    Why doesn't the media actually look at the salaries when they come up with these rumours? Doesn't work unless they give Harrington a 14M salary next year AND throw in another guy on top of Childress.

                    The Hawks have a bunch of young, cheap players and Joe Johnson, while AI is going to make over 18 million next season. This would be an extremely tough deal to make work without including JJ.

                      AI and Joe Johnson dont exactly make the greaest pairing but I think ATL would be all over it.


                      If its a S&T with Harrington, the lottery pick wouldnt be in the deal.

                        Him and Garnett would work out so well I think. Both of them are great players who have worked their butts off to make their teams better. Them working together would be like Old Starbury and KG together...but A.I is better than old Starbury so it would work out well.

                        But Minnesota doesn't have anything to give. 1st round pick, Ricky Davis. I guess. But I would love to see him with KG.

                          Iverson should be traded he can't do any better to the team he had 2 expectional seasons statitically and they got nowhere.

                            i'll be sad if iverson is traded. seeing him in a non-sixers jersey is gonna be outrageously weird

                              The Hawks will have 18-million dollars in cap space in the offseason. Assuming Harrington gets a starting salary of 7 million, which is about the lowest he'd get Id have to think in free agency + Josh Childress' 2.9 million dollar contract, there is plenty of room for the trade.

                              So, the media was find in filtering these rumors in terms of making a legal trade.
