    well he probably wouldn't get a raise, even though i bet there are plenty of teams willing to dish out the big bucks to get him. I think hes gonna take a pay cut to go to a contending team, that will still let him do his thing to an extent. I dont think he cares about the money, but he cares about his image, and being on a winning team.

    With how much damage this guys body has taken throughout the years, I see him deteriorating fast. I'm not sure he will be worth much more than the MLE in a couple years anyways

    Where is your evidence of him deteriorating fast? people have been saying that every year, and it never happens.

    i'm with ya man. they see a small guy getting crashing and banging with the big boys and they assume he's banged up.

    i'd love to see AI go back to philly.

    That would be awesome, to have AI with miller, Iggy, and Brand. That would be more than enough to challenge the Celtics for a championship.

    Don't forget about my boy, the Hatian Sensation, Sammy the Bull!

    I just don't get to see him play all the much because he's on the west coast.
