Well, that didn’t last long.

After playing just three games with the Memphis Grizzlies, Allen Iverson is on his way out of town.

The two sides have agreed to a mutual end of his one-year contract and the point guard will be placed on waivers.

And of course who is the one team that is showing an interest in Iverson…

The New York Knicks.

As if the Knicks are bad enough as it is, adding a selfish player like Iverson to their roster will do nothing except damage that organization even more.

Can we just ship him off to Europe somewhere? Let some other organization deal with him.

You won’t be able to convince me at this point that he’s worth the baggage that he brings considering his skills have diminished over the last couple of seasons.

The beginning of the Allen Iverson era in Memphis is slowly coming to an end.

Iverson returned home to Atlanta on Saturday, skipping the Grizzlies game against the Los Angeles Clippers to deal with “personal business.”

Head coach Lionel Hollins said Iverson’s departure from the team was “indefinite.”

“There’s no question that when he comes back we have to work some things out,” Memphis owner Michael Heisley said. “He’s got a lot of work to do, but we’ve all got to get on the same page. He understands what the conditions are. And we need to be less hyper about this along with Allen.”

For all you folks who felt I needed to retire for my previous post, now do you believe me when I said Iverson needs to leave the league?

Even if he gets out of his contract with Memphis, who would want to sign this guy?

Stay classy, A.I. and enjoy sitting at home in Atlanta.

Oh, Allen.

What are we and the Memphis Grizzlies going to do with you?

You had to know before you signed that one-year contract with the Grizz that you weren’t going to start over O.J. Mayo and Mike Conley.

So tell me why you’re already throwing a fit about not starting?

“I had no problems with the hamstring. I had a problem with my butt sitting on that bench for so long,” Iverson told the Memphis Commercial-Appeal. “I’m not a sixth man. Look at my resume and that’ll show I’m not a sixth man. I don’t think it has anything to do with me being selfish. It’s just who I am. I don’t want to change what gave me all the success that I’ve had since I’ve been in this league. I’m not a sixth man. And that’s that.”

You were a sixth man last year and you will continue to be a sixth man unless a team wants a selfish, aging point guard.

Grow up or just retire, A.I.

And now, coming off the bench for your Memphis Grizzlies, Allen Iverson!

Errr?

The veteran point guard is headed to the Grizzlies and like everyone else, announced it over Twitter:

“God Chose Memphis as the place that I will continue my career.”

That’s a cruel trick God is playing if that’s the case.

Iverson is hardly a lock to start even on the Grizzlies with young guards O.J. Mayo and Mike Conley.

I still think going to Memphis was the wrong choice and he should have went with his old coach Larry Brown and Charlotte.

There aren’t enough basketballs to go around in Memphis for Mayo, Iverson, Rudy Gay and Zach Randolph.

Let’s see how this latest chapter in Iverson’s career ends.

Remember when Allen Iverson was arguably the best point guard in the NBA?

If I would have told you five years ago that Iverson would become a free agent and the only team to make a legit offer would be the Memphis Grizzlies, you would have thought I was out of my mind.

Sadly, that’s the reality of Iverson’s career at this point.

We are weeks away from training camp opening and Iverson is homeless … for now.

But the Grizzlies have made an offer to the point guard on Wednesday – - and Iverson shared the news via his Twitter page.

That’s not something I would be sharing with the world, A.I.

Of the three teams that have a legit shot at Iverson (Memphis, Miami, Charlotte), the Grizz have the most space under the salary cap.

Reuniting with former coach Larry Brown in Charlotte might be the best fit but he would have to take less money, which means you’re asking Iverson not to be selfish.

Yeah, that ain’t happening.

Are we looking at the last of Allen Iverson in the NBA?

The veteran point guard is not happy with his role off the Detroit Pistons bench and has said that he would rather retire than be a full-time reserve.

“I’d rather retire before I do this again,” Iverson said. “I can’t be effective playing this way. I’m not used to it. It’s tough for me both mentally and physically. If I’m able to go out there, I should be able to get it done and I can’t right now. It’s my fault. I have to be able to overcome the adversity and do what I have to do. I just have to find a way to get it done. Not being 100 percent makes it harder and you can see that I’m not 100 percent.”

Way to be a team player, A.I.

Of course this is all talk because Iverson will be a free agent at the end of the season, so he knows his days as the 6th man off the Pistons bench are almost over.

Iverson will never win a championship in the NBA because even at the age of 33, he’s not willing to make the sacrifices it takes to win as a team.

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out of the D.

Good news out of Detroit.

Allen Iverson is out at least two weeks with a sore back.

Why is it good news for the Pistons?

Considering the way Detroit has struggled since Iverson has arrived to Auburn Hills, this might be a blessing in disguise.

With Richard Hamilton back in the starting lineup, Detroit managed to stop their eight-game losing skid and knock off Orlando and Boston on the road last weekend.

Coincidence?

I think not.

Take your time getting back on the court, A.I.

The biggest news from NBA All-Star Weekend wasn’t Nate Robinson dunking over Dwight Howard or the Shaq/Kobe reunion.

Allen Iverson cut his cornrows.

Stop the presses.

A.I. has finally decided at the age of 33 to become a grown-up and lose the hairstyle he has been rocking since 1996.

Tell me why this is news again?

When Carmelo cut his cornrows off earlier in the season, hardly anyone noticed.

Iverson does it and the sports world (and ladies) are buzzing.

The reason for the new haircut: Barack Obama.

Thanks, Mr. President.

Is Allen Iverson on the move once again?

My buddy Marc Spears at the Boston Globe is reporting that the Denver Nuggets and Detroit Pistons are in talks about a deal that would send Iverson to The Motor City for veteran point guard Chauncey Billups.

Also included in the trade would be veteran power forward and ex-Nugget, Antonio McDyess.

For Billups, a Denver-native, it would be a chance to finish his NBA career back home.

As for Iverson, it would mean a return to the Eastern Conference and a chance to cause havoc to his former team, the Philadelphia 76ers.

What do you think of the deal?
