The Memphis Grizzlies are close to signing Allen Iverson. It would be for a 1 year deal, because 1 year is all you can risk on The Truth and then you might find you can’t handle the Truth.
Memphis apparently is Iverson’s best – and only – NBA opportunity at this point. No other team has publicly emerged as an Iverson suitor. The Griz offered Iverson a reserve role paying at least $3.5 million or what it has remaining under the salary cap.

Just one Title, one NBA title, is that so much to ask?
Will Allen Iverson go down in history as Charles Barkely junior? You know, having a great career, but never winning an NBA Championship?
