Second A.I. is going to do what Miller did for Indiana. 17 years of hopes and dreams with no delivery, and then retire completely overrated.
Although maybe.... MAYBE!!! Chris Webber will put them over the top. If A.I. learns to pass.

First of all shorty, I wasn't comparing Iverson to Jordan. So don't take that tone with me. All I said was Iverson broke him off with two consecutive nasty crossovers. And this is a KNOWN fact. It doesn't make someone any less of a ball player if they get their ankles broken. Second of all, A.I. is NOT selfish and has a low shooting percentage for a reason. I obviously gave you too much credit for even knowing the game, because if you did you would retract that idiotic statement about A.I. and his field goal percentage. A.I. has for years been the only consistent player on his team. He was constantly surrounded by average players, and sub-par scorers. The coach gives Iverson the right to hoist those shots, regardless the situation...because it is HIS scoring that even keeps them in ball games. He is hands down, pound for pound the most talented offensive player in the league...and is virtually the best scoring little man to EVER play the game, so he has every right to put up shots...especially with the offensively challenged teammates that surround him. And don't make it sound as if just because he shoots alot, that is why he leads the league in scoring...cause that isn't the case either. It is another known fact, that in the NBA it is difficult enough just to free yourself up for your own shot, and to have the ability like A.I. to put it up at anytime (especially at his height of 5'11/6'0) that is one hell of an accomplishment in itself. In regards to Iverson passing...you have no clue what you;re talking about. If you ever watched Iverson in an All-Star game, or the Olympics where he is surrounded with other players who can score, he has no problem dishing the ball off and doing it damn well. Plus he averaged 7.9 assists last year, WHILE leading the league in scoring. You my friend have no idea what you're talking about in concerns with Allen Iverson. And just cause Miller didn't win a title doesn't make him overrated. The same goes with Malone, Stockton, Barkely, Ewing and all the other great players who went with out rings.Maximum_Carnage said:
Once again, no F-ing clue what you're talking about. That was taken out of context. GO look for the entire interview first, then read how that statement came about. Ontop of that, if you followed Philly's traininc camp..Iverson is the first one in the gym and the last one to leave each day.Maximum_Carnage said:
AKA, you don't like his look. There was plenty of players with worse attitudes than Iverson back in the 80's and 90's.Maximum_Carnage said:
Once again talking out of your ass I see!!! Iverson year in year out has been known as having the biggest heart in the league. Just ask Shaq, Dr. J, Magic or even Jordan himself..all have emphasized the fact that this 6'0 150 lbs guy can dominate in a league of huge players, and does so by having the biggest heart on the floor. "It's not the size of the dog in the fight...but the size of the fight in the dog." Look how many times AI has battled severe injuries only to lead his teams to victories. Hell look at the entire 2001 season where he put them on his shoulders while having a dislocated elbow and won MVP. Once again I emphasis you are not knowledgeable in basketball at all...no matter how long you've been watching it. You're just bitter and a hater of Allen Iverson. You don't like the appearance, so you make up excuses to hate his game. A.I. has just about as much heart as anyone who has ever played the game.Maximum_Carnage said:
Son, I play D1 college basketball... that alone puts any of your supposed "knowledge" to shame.Maximum_Carnage said:

You don't think Iverson plays to win? You don't think he was playing to win when he could barely walk, but still in the game putting up 20+ points a game one year? You don't think he was playing to win when again, and again, and again, he took the ball, and scored points for his team, when no one else could?Maximum_Carnage said:

Iverson's definitely selfish. But at times (especially early in his career) he had to be selfish for the team to win. He does want to win without question, and if Iverson wins, everyone else on the team does as well.Maximum_Carnage said:
