The Minnesota Timberwolves are reportedly one of the teams trying to make a trade for former NBA Most Valuable Player Allen Iverson.

The Philadelphia 76ers say they will attempt to trade their star guard who is unhappy with the situation in Philadelphia. The 76ers have won only 5 of their first 19 games this year.

Iverson is one the leagues most exciting players and his presence alongside Kevin Garnett would transform the character of the Timberwolves.

Cathy Wurzer asks Brit Robson, who covers the Timberwolves for City Pages, for his thoughts on this possible deal.
