MIAMI, Dec. 18 (AP) -- Cross Miami off the list of potential landing spots
for Allen Iverson.
Heat coach Pat Riley said Monday that the defending NBA champions have pulled
out of the running for the Philadelphia 76ers superstar, who is out of action
and on the sidelines while awaiting to be traded.
Miami had been mentioned as a possible destination for Iverson, but Riley
squashed any hope of a deal that would have brought one of the NBA's leading
scorers to South Florida.
``We are out of the Allen Iverson conversation,'' Riley said Monday before
the Heat played the New Orleans Hornets. ``This isn't going to move forward.
We have discussed every scenario. It never became formal offers.
``It's time for us to move on.''
Riley said he was aware that Philadelphia contacted 28 of the 30 NBA teams.
Talks between the Heat and Sixers never turned into serious offers or
specific scenarios, he said.
``I thought it was in the best interest of the franchise to at least explore
it,'' Riley said. ``As of today, we're done with it.''
Riley pulled the trigger on a blockbuster trade two summers ago that brought
All-Star center Shaquille O'Neal. Teamed with guard Dwyane Wade, the Heat
reached the Eastern Conference Finals and then won the franchise's first NBA
title last season.
Adding Iverson to the mix would have created a dazzling backcourt and given
the Heat a much-needed scoring boost while O'Neal recovers from a knee injury.
It won't happen, though.
``Scenarios and discussions always turn into offers,'' Riley said. ``When you
have 28 teams talking, it can get complicated, and then you start trying to
match up the dollars. We just decided to move out.''
