【ESPN】费城和丹佛就AI达成交易
掘金送出Andre Miller, Joe Smith和2个2007的第一轮秀权；76人送出Allen Iverson
联盟周二正式批准了费城和丹佛的交易，具体为：76人获得掘金的 Andre Miller 和 Joe Smith 以及两个2007年的首轮选秀签，而掘金得到76人的 Allen Iverson 和前锋 Ivan McFarlin。
“我对这个交易感到非常高兴，”Iverson 说。“掘金的打球风格符合我的长处。我已开始盼望和 Carmelo 以及其他掘金球员一起打球，为 George Karl 打球——他是个行之有效的赢家。” 掘金和76人在周三晚恰好都会在主场比赛，因此新换来的球员有望披挂上阵。虽然掘金方面表示一些体检和报告都被取消了，但是 Iverson 的经纪人 Leon Rose 说 AI 不会参加周三的比赛。“他肯定会参加周五（对国王）的比赛。”Rose 说。掘金方面也作好欢迎 AI 的准备了，“我和 Allen 对话了，他高兴的发狂。”掘金球员个人部副主管 Rex Chapman 在周二晚的新闻发布会上说。“我们希望他明天就能到这里。Allen 已证明了他是个胜利者。”
76人与此同时也宣布了交易，“首先，我要感谢 Allen Iverson过去11年为我们所做的一切，”76人总裁 Billy King 说。“我想他给我们所有人了一些伟大的时刻。我觉得他是最伟大的球员之一。”被问到这宗交易如何帮助了球队，King 说：“我们想要的是获得一些薪金空间，得到能一名能帮助我们的球员，我想我们做到了这点。”76人获得两个首轮选秀签，其中一个来自丹佛，另一个则来自小牛。“选秀签对我们来说很重要，因为我们想通过选秀来重建。”King 说。费城现在遭遇了11连败，而过去3个赛季都未能打进季后赛。“我们没有赢过总冠军，即使拥有 Allen，我想我们距离总冠军仍有很长的道路。”76人主席 Ed Snider 说。“对我们来说，是时候做个深呼吸然后走一个不同的方向。Allen 想要走一个不同的方向。”
Iverson 本赛季的年薪约有1800万，他的这份合同要到1009年才到期。Iverson 和他的新队友 Carmelo Anthony 目前高居联盟得分榜前两位，他俩在2004年雅典奥运会时曾一起打球，不过由于 Anthony 被禁赛15场，两人最早在1月20日对火箭的比赛才会携手打球

The Denver Nuggets have reached an agreement in principle with the Philadelphia 76ers to acquire Allen Iverson, according to NBA front-office sources.
The trade, pending league approval, some two weeks after Iverson demanded a trade in Philly, would send Andre Miller, Joe Smith and two 2007 first-round picks to the Sixers for Iverson and perhaps another minimum-salaried player or two. It was expected to be completed later Tuesday barring any snags.
The Sixers had been hoping to take back only expiring contracts in any Iverson deal, unless they were receiving a top-flight young player like Minnesota's Randy Foye or Shaun Livingston of the Los Angeles Clippers.
But with Philly and Denver struggling to find a third team to join in to make the deal more financially enticing for the Sixers, they decided to end an auction that began in earnest when Iverson's demand to be traded was confirmed by Sixers chairman Ed Snider on Dec. 8.
This deal will bring Philly a former league assist leader in Miller, Smith's expiring salary of nearly $7 million and those two first-round picks in June -- projected to be in the 20s -- to go with their own lottery pick. Miller is averaging 13 points and 9.1 assists per game -- third-best in the NBA -- while Smith, an 11-year veteran, has played little this season, averaging only 13.5 minutes and 5.1 points per game.
The Nuggets' interest in Iverson dates to last February and has only increased since the Sixers made him available to the whole league earlier this month. Their chief motivation is pairing Iverson with Anthony in coach George Karl's up-tempo attack, but acquiring Iverson now -- just a day after Anthony and J.R. Smith were suspended for 15 and 10 games, respectively, for their roles in Saturday night's fight with the New York Knicks -- gives a much-needed jolt to Denver's depleted roster.
The former teammates from the 2004 U.S. Olympic squad won't be able to play together until Anthony is reinstated for a Jan. 20 game at Houston.
Miller, who led the NBA in assists with 10.9 per game for Cleveland in 2001-02, makes $8.7 million this season and has $19.2 million left on his contract over the following two seasons.
It's apparent, though, that the Sixers decided it was better to absorb Miller's contract now -- along with the opportunity to have three first-round selections in what scouts are calling the deepest draft in years -- as opposed to dragging out the Iverson saga further.
Iverson has been in exile for the past 11 days, languishing on the Sixers' inactive list while still accruing his per-game earnings of $156,218.
Iverson, 31, is averaging 31.2 points per game -- second only to Carmelo Anthony's 31.6 ppg -- in 15 games this season. He has a career 28.1 ppg scoring average in 11 NBA seasons, all in Philadelphia. He led the Sixers to the 2001 NBA Finals, where they lost to the Los Angeles Lakers in five games, but the team has seen little playoff success since.
He was Rookie of the year in 1997 and MVP in 2001. He has led the NBA in scoring four times, most recently in 2005, finishing in the league's top three every year since 1999, and twice led the league in steals.
