I actually think for a simple case like this one, the NSThread approach will have simpler, more straightforward code. I say go with whichever way makes more sense for your style of coding.

Just curious, but if I am loading images into a UIImageView in table cells

to ensure that the scrolling is smooth while images are loaded in?

I'd recommend the async method if it's at all reasonable. Threads are difficult to write, dangerous to use, and difficult to debug. If you can avoid them without blocking your app or causing major coding headaches, then it's generally best to avoid them.
