2000 era was gold

Allen Iverson is one of the best players never to win an NBA Championship.

The Answer was something different 🐐🐐🐐

Growing up in philly and watching what he did single handily. IVERSON is my favorite player of all time. Every kid that played basketball in philly wanted to be just like him.

Allen Iverson changed the game forever 🎮

Let’s put it like this. A.I. was so great, he was able to take away the 2001 MVP award from Shaq, when he was at his physical peak and couldn’t be stopped, and no one has any issues with it!

Never heard "6'0 nothing" Got a giggle ngl

Iverson's story with mike brown is a perfect counterargument to todays culture of unsurmountable egos that demand their coaches to be fired and have a copout on their idiotic behaviors and delusions of grandeur. In order for AI to achieve greatness, he had to first humble himself and observe other greats as he did exemplify mike and magic then he humbled himself again and had an Honest discussion with his coach, he realised his mistakes and trusted the right people. This thing takes enormous balls to do and make a meaningful change to Yourself. Mad props to my childhood hero and every 90s kid. Thanks for this video man truly inspirational story!

even though AI didn't win the chip in that post season, it's still carries more weight than KDs Two Rings with the Warriors

Allen Iverson and Larry Brown were the best things that happen to each other.

Iverson is honestly one of my favourite players EVER!

*ALLEN IVERSON*

I'm sure majority of 90s kids wanted to be "Like AI" growing up in the 00s. ❤‍🔥 He was our MJ growing up. I even watched his game when he had to leave the NBA and went to play a bit in the Turkish League. Besiktas Cola Turka #4 Also, DPOY+6MOY and they said it's a one man job. 10-32FG & 5-27 and the team still pulled through the W. Fans really needa put bias aside and give credits when due! Both the 01 Sixers and 11 Mavs aren't a one man job. Both are really well crafted teams 🔥

Iverson is the pound 4 pound GOAT. He’s right alongside Jordan and LeBron for most gifted, God-given talent to ever grace an NBA court.

AI was different, top 5 SG in my eyes. 🐐🐐🐐

He deserved so much better

I think Dikembe Mutombo was the difference for the most part. Yes AI was phenomenal, but he never got anywhere close to winning a title before Dikembe came along.

Pound for pound GOAT 🐐

Kids back then (including myself) used to put socks on their sleeves copying him.. He was our MJ

Him and Vince being Most attractive players in the league is a crazy sentence. 9:07

Man, as an AI fan that 2001 run was magic. After those back to back 7 game wars with Toronto and Milwaukee, Iverson was so beat down. He still had one for the Lakers but finally ran out of gas. Plus, Shaq, Kobe, and the rest of that LA team were so, so good. Iverson is one of one.

There are not many bigger Allen Iverson fans than myself, but ai have to say that yes he was the best player on his team and one of the best in the league and one of the greatesr players of all time. But the team and style of play that Larry Brown and the 76ers built around him with Snow, McKey, Lynch, Hill, Bell, Ratliff (later Mutombo), Geiger and Kukoc all perfectly complimented AI's game and they worked great as a team. Iverson's teammates were as unselfish as he was and deserves some respect for doing being that way. I loved those teams.

I love your channel and content and plz, keep up the great work

AI was too good 🤧

Finally something about Philly

This man changed the way we dribble and then he was dauntless 🔥🔥🔥

gotta love this video!~

The absolute greatest player in the history of the National Basketball Association

iverson is one of my personal favourite players what he was able to do at 6 feet offensively was INSANE

Allen Iverson was an amazing basketball player. I don’t think people really understand just how good. There are rumors that back in the day, he would score 50 to 75 points in Pro AM games. I don’t know if that’s true, but I wouldn’t be surprised. He was just that good. AI could have gone on to achieve even greater things in the NBA if his career hadn’t been cut short by injury. He was one of the most gifted players to ever pick up a basketball, and he will be remembered as one of the greatest.

That maturity change after the trade fell thru is legendary ngl

solid video sir

Very good video brotherman.

I agree, at the time, everyone wanted to be Iverson. For me it was as they said in the Video, Allen Iverson and Vince Carter. The two outstanding hotshots of the NBA

THE ANSWER, the man who made me love basketball

Imagine if he actually worked hard to improve that would been wild to see

They did receive all of the awards in 01 (not all but mostly) Coach of the year MVP DPOY 6th man of the year

This era of player are different for now era, if only if Carter,Kobe,Ai,tmac and Shaq vs curry,lebron,gianis,Luka and jojic it's so very scoring machine comes

Underrated story fr

Allen Iverson Is Truly A Legendary Icon Of The World!!🔥🐐🐐💎

Being called a ball hog with no shooters, just energy players is crazy. Nome of his teammates could avg 20 points on a different team. Until Toni showed up there were no shot creators and even Kukoc was a liability due to being on decline

You’d just had to be there! This was a fun time to be a teenage NBA fan!

I love hiw the sound track changed when it got to shaq and Kobe

One of my favorite player

The fact that he was able to put the team on his back isn't some new concept. It's been done for years by great players, but there was something about AI that was just different. I grew up watching MJ, and he is THE GOAT, but Iverson is my second favorite player of all time.

The ICON ❤

"6 foot nuthin" is diabolical

Iverson was a mandatory pick in every nba game he was ever in. No matter what that boy would put 20 something on your head in one of the slowest eras ever

The epitome of "The streets will never forget"

ai will always be one of the best scorers oat

THE GOAT!!

He's easily the coolest player in 2000 era. He's literally your idol's idol. If you have to compare someone to him from today's era, there isn't one. AI is a cultural phenomenom

As someone who up in Hampton and going to the same high school as him I’m glad we have some representation and a lot of people look up to him

"...the sixers started to suck." Preach. -a sixers fan

Most Iconic NBA Player in History. Not in the Goat conversation, but his legacy is great. For a young kid in Senegal, AI was the model to follow

As kobe said " We should be glad Iverson isn't 6'4 "

One of the best HOF without a ring.

"We all should be fortunate that Allen Iverson isn't 6'5" - Kobe Bryant

Do more “how good was” video please. Maybe Ray Allen, Patrick Ewing, or maybe just all superstar player 😅

I saw him play at the pacers….he went like 0-12 at the start of the 4th quarter , pacers up 10 or 12 and he dropped 20 in the 4th quarter for the win…. It was great , I hate Indiana in every possible way , 18,000 Hoosiers going from happy to sad was so satisfying , I will always love AI for that.

@05:21 looking like Starbucks and AI was gettin all the girls

NOLA fan but Iverson my all time GOAT he was just different

6 foot nothing 💀

With AI being so hip hop influenced, it's crazy that he never talked trash.

Put AI in a 6'6" 210lbs body and he'd be the GOAT. Seriously, that's how good he was. Got the MVP over prime Shaq, ended the 2001 Lakers playoff winning streak, and single-handedly put the 76ers on his back to reach the Finals. He's easily a top 5 all-time SG

AI has gone on record to say people are crazy if they thought he didn't practice especially when he won the MVP

Going against prime Vince Carter and Kobe and Prime Shaq. What a beast..

Can you do how good was Carmelo, Dwade, Dwight Howard, CP3, Westbrook, or Harden for those of us who are too young and missed out on these guys in their prime?

AI is one of my top 3 favorite players

7:26 yea this vid never got talked about😂

AI, one of my all time favourites.

if allen had even 75% of the type of a team that mj and kobe played on. Imagine how many titles he wouldve won with the right teammates and a winning culture around him. He might be the goat

W vid

Never knew about the AI to Detroit trade until today

Yessir

Matt giger clutched up. If he accepted the trade, who knows what would have happened to the answers career.

I don't like basket ball - I don't watch very much tv. But I can't believe that I've never heard of this cat.

Its sad that AI didn't win a ring in his carreer but he will always be ma fav player of all time👍🏼

AI was probably the most entertaining basketball player that I had seen since MJ. It's unfortunate he wasn't on a better team.

Shawn Bradely played for the Sixers? Never knew that

It was either jordan or iverson we grew up on , kobe shaq and others were later on also

The Answer put the Sixers on his back on the road to the finals in 2001. He didn't have any support that was the problem.

Video about 04' pistons winning championship plsss

2001 was the time he changed his mentality and immediately went straight to the finals. After that season, his old habits relapsed and only won 1 playoff series the rest of his career. He managed to score 25k in only 13 seasons. If AI kept his mentality in 2001 until the end of his career, he probably won at least 1 ring and played at least 3 more season and reach 30k points

Random pic of a bathroom in The Linc? lmao

Coach of the year, 6th man of the year, and DPOY on that team... but yeah, he carried em.🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 Right into a fuckin juggernaut called the Lakers

AI is def the greatest pound for pound player of all time

Easily one of the best scorers of the late 90s and early 2000s

Prime Allen iverson woudl easily dominate todays NBA

don't forget coach of the year as well

AI is unfairly given total credit for “carrying bums” to the Finals. When he had the DPOY and 6MOTY. He deserves a lot of credit but to me their defense was the biggest difference.

"We should all be fortunate that Allen Iverson wasn't 6'5." --Mamba

Reminds me when lebron carried the 07 cavs

Literally CARRIED his team to the Finals, on almost every play actually.

I really wish since he didn’t win a chip in his prime, that he was able to play that 6th man role and be an Jamal Crawford on steroids and win a chip with someone. Dudes a legend though

@05:52 - Who worked for who? - AI was a gift to the city

That team consisted of AI, Eric snow to pass him the ball, and 10 rebounders to catch his misses.
