Why do some people feel this way about Allen Iverson?

Iverson took a team full of scrubs to the finals.

Iverson the Gawd
Exactly bruh.

fukk the COTY, DPOY, 6MOY.

fukk missing shots and wasting possessions, imma do me by chucking 30 shots per game for 30ppg and play zero defense on the other side of the ball.

Maybe guys 13 years later will only look at how much points i averaged and how many durags i wore to post game interviews.

Iverson wasn't a winner in any of the stages of his career, and yet, his dust-head stans seem to wanna mention him in serious conversations with the gawds. He was just good and he influenced our style as kids and young adults at the time

The Mike Vick of basketball :camby:

:ehh:

well...they did make the finals....and he won mvp that year...so there was some winning thrown in there :yeshrug:

but youre right its mostly the stuff outside of basketball that holds a place for iverson with a lot of cats....the style and his not-giving-a-fukk attitude :manny:

No you're the one that's missing the point.

For the most part I enjoyed watching A.I. play, he was one of the most entertaining players of the last 30 years - the problem is when dudes start ranking/rating his play far beyond what his ACTUAL impact was. I could care less if he 'birthed' players like Kyrie Irving, I could give a fukk about all that. I don't hold canon-players of a certain style in higher regard, just because I like a player today that was fathered by their play. What just because I'm a fan of Kyrie I then have to practice this monotheistic worship like Iverson was a god amongst men, just like all these A.I. stans do?

:camby:
Do you foresee Irving winding up with a better career than A.I.? What about Westbrook?

If KD was on that 01 team Aaron Mckie would have got 20 attempts a game and that team would have been out in the 1st round:manny:
