Ai might be a Nugget again

I was reading the Denver post this morning and i read that coach Karl and the nuggets would consider getting Ai with a injury happened to one of the guards. you can read about it here. http://www.denverpost.com/sports/ci_13811769?source=rss
So In my view getting Ai would help us and hurt us. We get a great scorer. But we get less passes. Although we would have a killer line up. think about it
Starting
PG- Chauncey Billups
SG- Allen Iverson
SF- Carmelo Anthony
PF- Kenyon Martin
C- Nene
and our 2nd unit would be
PG- Ty Lawson
SG- Jr Smith/ Aaron Affalo
SF- Aaron Affalo/ Jr Smith
PF- Renaldo Balkman
C- Chris Andersan
or if Ai can get over his ego it could be
PG- Chauncey Billups
SG- Aaron Affalo
SF- Carmelo Anthony
PF- Kenyon Martin
C- Nene
and our second unit
PG- Ty Lawson
SG-Allen Iverson
SF- Jr Smith
PF- Renaldo Balkman
C- Chris Andersan
now that is a great line up.
What are your guys thoughts on this

I will ALWAYS love Allen Iverson...no matter what.
I know some people hate him now but I will always love him. I think the thing with Iverson is that he wants to start and play to contribute to wins! If he can contribute to wins then he’s fine.
After that…yeah if we didnt have Ty Lawson, I’d be ALL for getting Iverson back. But I HATE the small backcourt. Iverson, Lawson, Billups or any combo of those names I would hate to see on the floor. Especially when we have to play Brandon Roy and Kobe.

this would be a bad idea
scoring is obviously not our issue

No to A.I.
What, did you not notice what happened to the team last season after Iverson left? Iverson has proven that he won’t accept coming off the bench, and he’s no longer good enough to start. Bringing him in would make the defense worse, the offense no better, and could completely destroy the chemistry. I’d rather see A.C. in the game at this point than A.I.

Melo would become selfish
If he feels AI is shooting every possession. I love the guy, too, but our chemistry would implode.

I like old AI, not this one. He’s simply not effective enough any more, although he still thinks he is, and his shot chart shows this… Guard play is the strength of our team other than Melo, we don’t need another, especially a small one who doesn’t play D.

You might also look at it this way:
A.I.’s never played with Chauncey.

Good Point
You definatly have to take that into account before turning your head on the idea of signing A.I.

in the article GK only says it is a possibility if one of our guards is out for the year. if lawson or CB has season ending injury. so this is a none issue.
and as everyone has mentioned our guards are the strong part of our team, AI won’t add anything to this team.

this comment just made me realize something...
There were 2 Earls on this team at one point?
Boykins played with JR right? Weird.

Technically there were three: Earl Boykins (Wizards), Earl Watson (Pacers), Earl (J.R.) Smith ... still with team.

Wow.
haha, forgot about Watson. Earl is not a common NBA name to have 3 on one team. Its not like Jason (Terry and Kidd).
Also not as weird as when the Celtics had both Ray Allen and Allan Ray on their roster.
