Today is the latest in a long series of sports star homes lingering on the market. Denver Nuggets guard Allen Iverson has been looking to sell his home in Villanova, Pennsylvania for a year now. I first heard about it last year when the Wall Street Journal's Private Properties column first reported on it. Now a year later the same column reveals that Iverson has dropped the price on the 14,000 square foot home to a desperation price of $4 million. That's $1 million less than the former Philadelphia 76er and his wife Tawanna paid for it in 2003. The six-bedroom home is on four acres that include a pool house, stream and waterfall.The chateau-style home on Chateau Lane has four levels including a great room with floor-to-ceiling Palladian windows. The master suite has his and hers marble bathrooms, a coffee bar, media area and a veranda overlooking the grounds. There are four additional en-suite bedrooms and a separate guest quarters with a bedroom, living room and kitchenette. The entertainment level has a 12-seat movie theater, billiard room, and a lounge with a custom wood carved bar accommodating 200+ wine bottles. It is now listed at $3.999 million.

If you are planning to pick up the new Jordan jeans and the Air Jordan XX3 sneakers, then you are probably going to want to get your hands on this too. The Nike Limited Edition Jordan commemorative basketball is made of full-grain leather and has a graphic that wraps around the ball. There are 2323 of these balls made and each one is individually numbered on the box and ball. It also comes with an embroidered sport sack with shoelace drawstring and it sells for $150.

The fabulous Real Estalker Mama led us to the listing for NBA star Cuttino Mobley's house in Beverly Hills. Mobley, who plays for the LA Clippers, has put his five-bedroom home on the market. Mobley came to the Clippers in 2005 and bought the house for $3,650,000. Also in 2005, Mobley's home was robbed of $500,000 in cash, jewelry and other items. I wasn't able to tell if this was the house that was robbed but given its private location with those hills surrounding it, it seems to be the type of location that the band of thieves which has prayed on the rich and famous in the area are prone to strike in. The home is the classic celebrity new build, faux Tuscan with large bathrooms with separate tubs and vitrine-like showers, plasma screens everywhere. The small backyard includes a modest pool and a spa surrounded with cobalt blue tile. Given the price, $3,995,000, it does not look, as our Real Estalker Mama astutely pointed out, that Mobley will be making much money on the deal. Often when a player is looking for a quick sale it means a trade is in the offing. This doesn't seem to be the case in Mobley's case but I have to wonder where Mobley is headed to.

The word "massive" really has its work cut out when it comes to describing the new house basketball player LeBron James is building himself and plans to move into next summer. In addition to absolutely "massive" living spaces like a two-story walk-in closet off the master suite, and not only a huge "great room" but an even bigger "grand room" as well, James really outdoes himself (and the rest of the neighborhood) with a casino, a bowling alley, and a barbershop included in the over 35,000 sq feet of house plans.

Throw in a Starbucks and a gas station and he can upgrade from "massive home" to "small town."

Somehow, it seems that we missed the boat on the NBA Finals Shoes. More than likely, it's because we're more interested in watching the World Cup than in watching basketball. Nevertheless, these limited edition shoes are pretty cool. Only 60 pairs were made - with 12 pairs were sold online and 48 pairs at the NBA store in New York. Each pair was individually decorated by graffiti artist Oscar Gale/Toast and sold for $175.

If NBA fans weren't so fanatical about their shoes, I'd expect to see a pair on eBay soon, but as it is, you might have to wait until after the finals season until anyone is willing to part with a pair.
