Travels with LeBron

On Sunday, the Cavs had the ball with 10 seconds to go in the fourth quarter, down 79-77 against the Wizards in Washington. Everyone in the building knew who was getting the ball. No one expected what happened next.

With LeBron James driving through the lane, referee Bill Spooner called James for traveling.

In a league in which letting the players decide the game is an unwritten standard, the call was a stunner. But according to the rules, Spooner made the right call. The Associated Press reported Spooner explained in an e-mail to a pool reporter why he made the call: "Three steps on the move to the basket. Basic travel call."

When he was asked to explain what he did, James called it a "crab dribble." The next day, the Wizards, who won the game and have a contentious rivalry with the Cavs, couldn't believe their ears or hide their smirks.

"'Crab dribble' is when you, uh, travel," Wizards forward Caron Butler said. "That's the hottest thing on the market right now."

Iverson to make Denver return on Saturday


Allen Iverson isn't exactly emotional over his only trip this season to the Mile High City, certainly not like Chauncey Billups will be when he returns to the Motor City in two months.

"It's just another game for me. I've been in the league 13 years," Iverson said of Friday night's game at the Pepsi Center between Detroit and Denver, who teamed up in November for the season's biggest trade.

Unless these teams beat the long odds and meet up again in the NBA Finals, it's Iverson's only chance to see the new-look Nuggets that he left behind when he was shipped to the Pistons in exchange for Billups.

"It's going to be good to be back with the fans that had supported me," Iverson said. "I have a lot of good memories from playing there."

Nothing like hoisting a trophy or snipping the nets, though.

The AI experiment with fellow All-Star Carmelo Anthony didn't work out. Although the Nuggets won 50 games last year, they went 1-8 with Iverson in the playoffs after acquiring him from Philadelphia in the middle of the 2006-07 season. The attendance jump they anticipated never materialized and neither did the success they envisioned.

It turns out the best thing about Iverson's 22-month stay in Denver was his trade value.

The Nuggets are thriving under the leadership of Billups, a native son who is as good for the organization in the community as he is for the team on the court. Coach George Karl finally has the true point guard he's coveted for so long and Denver looks more and more like a legitimate playoff power after five straight first-round flameouts.

At 25-12, Denver is off to its best start since its first season in the NBA in 1976-77, and Nuggets executive Mark Warkentien has done a masterful job of getting the team under the luxury tax threshold, shedding some $20 million in payroll and that much again in dollar-for-dollar tax bites -- all the while improving the team.


Some of the luster is off the matchup, however, with Anthony sidelined by a broken hand.

Although Iverson might not be emotional about his return to Denver, a city where he wanted to end his career after his bitter departure from Philadelphia, several of his former teammates are certain there will be extra juice in the arena:

" "It will be quite emotional," Linas Kleiza said. "He played here, he was a great player, he was a great teammate. I'm sure he's going to come back here and make his points."

" "It will be emotional for me," J.R. Smith said. "He's one guy that definitely helped me out. He helped me become the player I am right now. I was sorry to see him go."

" "You know it will be emotional," Carter said. "He was part of the family. I think he will get a good reaction when he comes back."

" "I'm sure it will be great," Martin said. "It's the first game back after a trade, there will be a lot of emotion and energy in the building. We'll put that aside and go after a win.

"I'm still loving him," Martin added, "but there ain't no love lost between us and the Pistons."
