Allen Iverson and Ron Artest have been contacted by Pat Riley in the opening days of free-agency negotiations, league sources said Thursday.
Riley entered the start of the free agency negotiating period Wednesday saying he would be reluctant to spend the $5.5 million mid-level exception because the Heat already was past the league's anticipated dollar-for-dollar luxury tax on excessive payrolls.
Via Miami Herald
In case you missed it, in the first quarter of Monday's game Riley and Heat rookie Caron Butler each received technical fouls when they protested that Artest had fouled Butler while jostling for position during a dead ball. As Riley continued to complain, Artest strolled up to the coach and joined the argument. That's a no-no. "Don't talk to me," Riley told Artest.
Then, about four minutes into the fourth quarter, Artest was called for a flagrant foul when he ran over Butler as they chased a loose ball out of bounds. Somehow, there was no incident after that, but there was two minutes later when Artest, after drawing a foul on a strange-looking scoop shot, walked toward the Miami bench with his right arm flexed. As he and Heat assistant coach Keith Askins had words, Artest brushed against Riley. That's a double no-no. They began shouting at each other and Riley shoved Artest away. The whole thing had a frightening nuttiness about it, particularly since Artest, as was often the case with Rodman, showed little emotion, and afterward reacted with a what-me? disingenuousness when asked about the incident.
Bwhahaha...this was the game where Ron flipped the bird to Miami fans.

AI is not a pg... wade can play pg but he doesnt want to andit is his team... wade likes coming off the screen and hitting that mid range jumper... is AI willing to pass... did he get a reality check in detroit? notsure about his attitude... i dont think it would be a good idea to have him around beasley...
AI / chalmers / beverley

If Sheed is smart he easily signs with the Spurs, starter, a lot of minutes obviously and a really good team.
