Iverson-Knicks Rumor Confirmed

I just got off the phone with my homegirl Miss Cleo (no, she's not in jail!) and here is the official word: Allen Iverson will be going to the Knicks. It all works out. We already knew from his rap career that he was down with Harlem World, so New York will be an easy transition. And it's not too far from Philly, so maybe his family can stay there. Plus The Big L thinks it's possible and Mutoni desperately wants it to happen.

Miss Cleo said she took a cue from the following lyrics off the song "Pay Per View" that A.I. recorded in 2000. Iverson clearly knows how to cross-over -- into otherly worlds. Back in 2000 he appeared to be talking about the previous season's lockout, but peep his clairvoyance with regards to his current dirty trade "dance" and the Knicks' ongoing salary problems:
Yo this is the Answer
It's a dirty, dirty, dirty dance
If we don't get the money we want, we locked out
That's why I run with them Harlem World n---az
And everybody I'm runnin' with is the highest paid in what we do
That's why this s--- is Pay Per View.

Also, the mention of Pay Per View is clearly an allusion to Cablevision, the company that owns the Knicks.

Lick it, stamp it, post it, lick it again: Miss Gossip and Miss Cleo are calling Iverson in a Knicks uniform by the end of the week. "The cards never lie, baby!"
