ESPN週二的消息指出戰神的經紀人，Leon Rose正前往賭城處理與快艇的會面事宜， 他正努力的在尋找戰神的新歸屬。 The Memphis Grizzlies remained the most viable fallback option for Iverson, with the Grizzlies holding the trump card -- should they choose to play it -- of being able to offer Iverson more money than the Clippers. 灰熊仍是戰神最可能去的球隊，因為他們手中仍握有王牌----比快艇隊更高的籌碼， 只是他們要打出這張牌嗎？ Also in the Iverson picture are the Miami Heat, who like many NBA teams are waiting this week to see how the fallout from the Paul Millsap offer sheet signing will impact the free agent and trade markets going forward. Utah has until Friday to match Portland's four-year, $34 million offer sheet, and the Blazers could re-enter the market as major cap-space players -- a development that would send ripple effects throughout the league, impacting Lamar Odom, Carlos Boozer and others -- if Utah decides to match. 雖然戰神的蹤影似乎也出現在邁阿密，但是就像許多球隊一樣，大家都還在等爵士隊 的Millsap何時塵埃落定，他的合約將影響到自由球員甚至是球員交易市場的下一步動 作。Utah將會拖到週五才決定是否跟進Portland開出的四年三千四百萬合約，這牽動 到拓荒者是否又會成為球員市場中$$最多的球隊。這隻還在成長中的球隊將在聯盟中 掀起一些漣漪，也許追逐Odom、Boooooozer或者其他球員，前提是：Utah選擇跟進 Millsap合約的話。 Memphis is eager to add Iverson for his box-office appeal in a city where the franchise has struggled to tap into the community fan base, though Grizzlies owner Michael Heisley has said he believes Miami is the favorite to end up with Iverson. 灰熊需要戰神的票房吸引力來讓球迷掏錢進場，雖然灰熊老闆說熱火應該才是戰神 目前最想去的地方。 As for the Clippers, two sources said one major potential obstacle to be resolved is the question of whether Iverson would accept a role coming off the bench, and whether the Clippers are convinced he could be effective in a three-guard alignment with starters Baron Davis and Eric Gordon. But the Clippers' relative lack of depth in the backcourt would offer Iverson additional minutes, and the allure of playing in a large market is a factor that favors both Los Angeles and Miami over Memphis 那快艇呢？有個消息來源都說最主要的問題在於要戰神打替補，快艇覺得三後衛的陣容 將會非常可怖。但是快艇後場相對貧乏的替補將能夠給予戰神較多的時間，而且L.A.的 市場畢竟還是比較大，這是快艇跟熱火比灰熊要更具吸引戰神加盟的優點。 One source indicated the Clippers' ongoing efforts to trade Chris Kaman was tangentially impacting their plans, and a second source said Los Angeles -- which tried to acquire Indiana's Jarrett Jack before he signed an offer sheet Monday with Toronto -- also continues to have a strong interest in Milwaukee restricted free agent point guard Ramon Sessions. 有個消息指出快艇將會試著交易Kaman，他已經不在球隊的計畫之中。另一個L.A.的消 息則說快艇想要溜馬的Jarrett Jack，雖然他們也對公路隊的Sessions有興趣（不過 Sessions是有限制的自由球員）。 If the Clippers were to exit the Iverson derby, Memphis would be able to outspend Iverson's other main suitor, the Charlotte Bobcats, whose financial flexibility in going after Iverson is restricted by luxury tax concerns. 如果快艇打算退出角逐戰神的行列，灰熊就能夠避免在戰神身上花太多錢，同樣想競 爭戰神的山貓隊就已經受限於豪華稅條款而綁手榜腳了。 ********************************************************************* --
