The DugOut posted that Carmelo Anthony, the NBA's league leading scorer, has been suspended for his part in a brawl over the weekend.

So, his team went out and signed the league's second best scorer on the season. The Answer, aka Allen Iverson will try to help the Nuggets make a run at the title. It should be a lot of fun to see if these two guys can make it work.

My thought is probably not, but you never know. It's tough having two big time scorers on the team. By and large it's about power dynamics, and AI is the veteran who should lead the team. Of course it is Carmelo's team he would be leading.

Iverson, a seven-time All-Star and four-time scoring champion, transformed the Sixers from lottery losers to contenders, though he couldn't bring home an NBA title to this championship-starved city. He came close in 2001, when the 76ers lost to the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA finals, but since then the team has fallen from the elite, missing the playoffs twice in the last three seasons.

Now the 31-year-old Iverson's chase for a coveted championship will continue in Denver.
