*********************************************************************
Allen Iverson will have a lot to prove
By VINCE ELLIS ‧ FREE PRESS SPORTS WRITER ‧ June 7, 2009

Charlotte Bobcats coach Larry Brown told the media Friday he was open to
accepting free-agent guard Allen Iverson as a part of the team.
Brown, who led the Pistons to an NBA title in 2004, seemed in a conciliatory
mood toward Iverson -- considering their tumultuous relationship when he
coached Iverson with the 76ers earlier in Iverson's 13-year career.
But the Charlotte Observer had a quote from Brown that raises questions about
Iverson's future in the league.
"I know he has a big chip on his shoulder now," Brown said. "He's got a
trainer and is taking care of himself."
If it were only a matter of motivation and getting in tip-top shape, there
would be no doubt Iverson could reclaim his status as one of the top-flight
scorers in the league.
But in watching Iverson, 34, last season after he was acquired from the
Denver Nuggets in the blockbuster trade for Chauncey Billups, it was obvious
Iverson had lost a step.
No doubt Iverson, wherever he lands, will be in a mood to prove to everyone
that he is the Iverson of old.
