Iverson Tweets "Yes"

Posted by Chris Herrington on Wed, Sep 9, 2009 at 9:50 AM

Allen Iverson, one of the most exciting, colorful, and controversial athletes of the past decade or so, will be donning Beale Street Blue this season, accepting the Grizzlies' one-year offer and announcing it on his Twitter feed this morning:

God Chose Memphis as the place that I will continue my career. I met with Mr. Heinsley, Chris Wallace and my next head coach Lionel Hollins

I feel that they are committed to developing a winner and I know that I can help them to accomplish that. I feel that I can trust them.

Chris, with the addition of Zachary Randolph and, now, Allen Iverson, you will, no doubt, have a lot to write about this season. I guess that means that the Grizzlies will be more intriguing to watch. I tend to be an optimist, but both of these guys seem hungry to prove something.

going into this off-season we needed a rebounder and a defensive presence..... $20 mill later and we still dont have it.

You have to admit that the Grizzlies at least have talent on the team now.

Mayo
AI
Gay (+20lbs of muscle should be interesting)
Randolph
Gasol

Bench: Conley, Carroll, Arthur, Young

Only two of those guys may play defense, but scoring points should NEVER be an issue. Someone is going to be on each game.
