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.

So far I like the trade. I'll wait until after the draft to make a true decision. Billy King could be one of the few GMs that can screw up three first-round picks.

The Sixers got the best end of this deal, IMO. You get a true point guard in Miller whereas the Nuggets get yet a point guard who'd rather shoot first than pass first. Throw in AI's ego along with Melo's and you have a very combustible situation. We'll see how it pans after Melo comes back from his suspension.

I am very happy we got Miller, Joe Smith and 2 1st round picks. That's alot for Denver to give up for a headache who wants the ball and is a me first player.
