A.I., Class of ‘04 All About to Be Traded. Maybe.

It’s already been the craziest off-season ever, and boy could it be about to jump off further. According to The Rocky Mountain News, Allen Iverson might be on the block.↵

↵Hopefully, that will soothe Marcus Camby’s ravaged self-esteem -- after all, rebuilding is a heartless beast. The Nuggets never offered A.I. an extension, it now seems like Melo is (rightfully) the future and the cost-cutting has a distinct age-discrimination bend to it. It might not happen til next season’s deadline, but major nonetheless.↵

↵But wait, there’s more. The Charlotte Observer reports the Okafor and the Bobcats are at an impasse, and that a sign-and-trade might be imminent. In fact, it’s in both sides’ best interest to do this sooner, rather than later, given Okafor’s injury history.↵

↵Oh, and Luol Deng’s gotten sick of butting heads with the Bulls. And, as I will never cease to remind you, Iguodala’s still in limbo. And let’s not even get started with the Josh Smith situation, or whatever’s up with Ben Gordon.↵

↵The Class of 2004 may not seem cocky, but they’re poised to over-estimate themselves right into oblivion. No one has any cap space. That Camby deal was, for all intents and purposes, a desperation move. Who knows, maybe they’re all headed overseas? I mean, Okafor, Iguodala, Deng, and Gordon all have strong international roots. Yeah, I smell a Stern conspiracy coming on.↵
