From Yahoo Sports:

Thursday, it was all but a given that free agent guard Allen Iverson(notes) was going to sign a one-year, $1.3 million deal with the New York Knicks.

In fact, one source close to the team told the New York Times that the percent chance A.I. would sign in New York was in “the high 90s.” It was basically a done deal.

Today’s forecast? Cloudy, with a 99 percent chance of not-gonna-happen.

Knick owner James Dolan was reportedly hesitant about signing Iverson for the remainder of the season, but said he would not stand in the way if Donnie Walsh and Mike D’Antoni were in favor of the move.

Anyway, more to come on this I’m sure. Like, say, Miami?

Well, it’s official! NBA out-cast, Allen Iverson, is turned down by the lowly Knicks. This is not good for Iverson’s future or his legacy. I am not shocked at all. I have stated in several posts that I want Iverson no where near the Celtics.

Does this mean The Answer will retire with his last NBA memory being a self-imposes exile? What are your thoughts?
