This is why the NBA hated him, but this is also exactly why his fans LOVE him.

This the track he spit the 40 bars joint on. I used to bump that all the time...!

OMG THE BEST COMMERICAL EVER

This commercial was hard in the early 2000s AI 40 bars was fire too he went in

Greatest little guy in the game... EVER!!!

I remember being in the 9th grade, in my room watching this commercial during the Finals. Around when I started following AI and he became my favorite player. But this commercial is funny, aside from the fact that they don't show the shoe, except at the beginning, this is an early 2000s rap video in 30 seconds! 😂😂😂 Right before the throwback era.

The doctor of thugenomics!!! This man had the heart of a lion, and would take a beating night in and night out, and still keep coming back for more..

I'm 43 and from the CHICAGO area so i was MIKED UP but when this commercial came out i became a fan of his and even got some shoes of his - MIKE my MAN but A.I. but A.I. my GUY

“It’s jewlz tiiiiimmmeeeee “ the baby 🐐 the only person I ever wanted to be like growing up besides Tupac greatest basketball commercial ever.

for anyone thats wonderin' the name of the beat in the commercial is called "40 Bars" by Allen Iverson or aka the rap name "Jewelz"

the IV's were AI's best sneaker. Hands down, the same sneaker he won the MVP and got to the finals (ahh miss AI at his prime).

The shoe and the commercial 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Shame they don't actually show the shoe, which is hands down the best shoe Iverson ever had, including the Questions, which are also ridiculously nice.

Fun fact: The beat too this commercial is also Allen Iversons own song “40 Barz” from his unreleased album called “Misunderstood”.

This was my first par of Iverson shoes. Still got them and AnswerIV still my favourite shoe to this day.

Greatest . Shoe . Ever .

ICON GOAT ,.... GAME CHANGER.... GRATEFUL I SAW THIS ERA...

loved the beat. however, this was a sneaker commercial. believe it or not.lolol reebok knew what they were doing and who they were targeting

Still the coolest thing since the camera phone, Iverson is.

Imagine a barely 6 foot dude who NEVER works out just shows up and puts 30 on you EVERY game. In the FREAKING NBA!! G.O.A.T level stuff by A.I.

Allen Iverson all day

That was me saying yeah Boiboi,I sure had a great time being in this commercial

how i loved this commercial growing up .

Yo, its just crazy how the league felt they had to stop the streets in hoop. Take Iverson and Jay Will. They were the clean versions of what and 1and all the shit the league went out and saw. To say "oh that's a carry," or start the dress code shit. Iverson and Jay Will were cut from a different cloth and they kept it true until the league tried to change them, and the way they play. U see they stopped doing the same moves (hood style) and went to just basic shit late in their careers.

that beat is from his song "40 bars"

I remember this commercial lol. I was like how many different hairstyles he had in this commercial lol. I was a laker fan but knew Iverson was the answer.

Allen iverson and Michael jordan had some of the best commercials to this day allen had jadakiss and jordan had his personas like johnny kilroy

It is Thursday, June 1, 2023 at 1:45 AM, and this is STILL fire. He is the Answer to the Question.

Classic...nuff said

🐐✨

40 bars classic

i think Allen is goodlooking

Best AI commercial!

its a song that AI did on his "controversial" rap album called 40 Bars.

You know there are people who actually like the tatoos, chains and cornrows, those suits are marketing to the hip hop demographic. Its not a crime, and if you dont like it, go buy Matt Harpring's shoes or something...

the best shoe

its from a rap song AI made years ago called "40 bars"

hell yea i agree..that red nd white long sleeve shirt he had on was fresh as fuck

the shoes cud b flat bottoms with Velcro straps but the commercial made them cool

reebok the answer iv was sick, hope reebok company would do a re-production of that sneakers, also the answer vii was hot. love the mid-low basketball shoes.

Did you know that this track is off his album?

He has a bandana

thank god he's not on the sixers anymore now my two favorite players (A.I. and Melo) are on my favorite team.

for the longest i thought that was hot sauce in the car

What was the meaning behind this commercial, him seeing himself at different moments?

Epic commercial. It's 2020, mothafuckas.

only 10 second pairs?

ah didnt see this comment, my bag! lol

Dumb. A bunch of suits at headquarters thought they could sell shoes by portraying a "thug" image. I guess it worked.
