Iverson or Rose in their primes

[Brozay]

people really don't know what kind of records AI holds

second to none other then MJ in career playoff PPG r

Iverson averaged 27 shots over his playoff career and shot 40%

are we seriously just going to gloss over context like this?

Never really cared for AI like that and I have mad love dor D-Rose but I have to pick Iverson in this case.
Rose is a great player but he's not on AI level yet

 

[HacksawJimThuggin]

I don't really see how anyone who actually knows what they're talking about when it comes to basketball can choose Rose, in this scenario. Rose is basically a bootleg AI. What they bring to the table isn't all that different, AI just did it better. It would be more interesting if you had chosen a PG whose pros/cons weren't essentially the same as AI's.

People hatin on Rose but hes already won an MVP and lost in the ECF to the Heat (nobody as good as them in '01 east)

 

[Majestic Pape]

Iverson is so overrated

Rated properly Iverson at his best is still better than Rose at his.

The nerve of you to question dudes picking Rose, yet you refer to him as a bootleg AI........

 

[The God Poster]

Man this is an insult to AI, and I almost never ride for dude. Rose wouldn't even be in the hall if his career ended today

@CHICAGO do you agree breh

 

[Yagirlcheatinonus]

When its all said and done Rose wont have the accomplishments that AI has.

Now Rose might get a ring AI never played on a team like the Bulls but as far as individual accomplishments AI>>>>>>>

breh, this is a fukking joke if this is the info you are basing the bulls being as good without Rose

a fukking joke

ill give you the opportunity to not reply to me, and avoid looking like a jackass

Your fandom is terrible, its quite pathetic, how is playoff record against Miami a joke. Chicago essentially replaced Rose production with Nate Robinson and ended up with the same outcome against Miami. You could have replaced Rose with 10 guards and they would have had the same or a better outcome against Miami, period. For example, that phony Rose MVP year, Westbrook had a higher assists, steals, rebounds, and PER. Outside of scoring (which means nothing since there shooting percentage was the same, Rose just took more shots) Russell has him beat. Comparing Rose to Iverson is where the fukking joke is. He's not a PG (his assists numbers have never been higher than guys like Westbook and John Wall, who I also like at the PG spot more than Rose) which is why the other players production doesn't improve, the Bulls are all coaching at this point, even when Rose was healthy. I know you love the guy but he just isn't as good as you want him to be. Stop romanticizing.

rose is my favorite player in the league, but i gotta go with prime allen iverson. i'd like to think we haven't seen rose in his prime yet. as of right now, i'll give it to the answer.

i think athletically, they were on the same plane and both are great finishers. rose might have allen by 3-4 inches and probably 30-40 pounds, so it's incredible for allen to even compared to rose athletically.
