Best playoff run(and not win it all) in NBA history. They were Cinderella that year and AI was so good it was scary. They had some role players and a 6 foot, 160 lb leader that almost took them all the way against, what I think, should have been superior teams. People forget how good Iverson was. They only remember the "it's just practice" comment or his runins with Larry Brown. Or the tatoos. Bottom line,no superstar in the last 20 years(or beyond)played as hard as he did night in and night out
i remember this game like it was last week. i was in college watching in the tv room with other students. i had almost broke my hand 2 days before because i punched the pool table when Reggie hit that game winner 3. they had beat us the previous 2 seasons in the playoffs and i was like here we go again. my fav Philly sports run was this Sixers team to the finals. what a time. The Eagles winning the superbowl was the biggest moment but this was the most fun. plus i was 21 years old vs 37 when the Eagles won
Just remember that Miller eliminated Iverson two years back to back prior to this season. Miller was the Iverson stopper. Miller is 2-1 in the playoffs against A.I
@@GetBackRy3x pure bull💩. Pacers was in the conference finals facing off against that pistons team in 04 while iverson was home watching. I'm a fan of iverson but let's not trash miller's greatness.
Nah go look up the eastern conference semi finals of the same year, sixers advance past pacers.. Ai and Vince Carter, most ridiculous series I've ever witnessed
i have seen a few of the greats in person and on television in 30 years of being alive.. and Larry bird, mike, Kobe, AI, wade in 06, Tim Duncan.. it’s different. When you hear the stories of these men at work.. that’s what they are men doing their job. It’s different. I’m from WV Jason Williams from DuPont HS forgot more ways to make you look silly than you ever remembered.. but Dwade is 06 heat and Jason Williams got a ring there.. 55 purple Kings jersey in my closet tells you I wanted him and cwebb to get there first.. WV history.. NFL Randy Moss doesn’t have a ring and this is a man who I’ve seen on 3 competitive levels and he was all alone on all of them. LITERALLY all alone on a talent level, athleticism level, confidence level.. and I can’t say anything against anyone who loses doing their best.. Bc Bro it’s hard to do a job do it a new way and be right about it and better than all your peers all at once. I’m thankful for the greats I’ve seen. Lebron is great Bc he gets to be talked about w mike.. Kobe is great Bc you hated that he legit nearly always did what mike could do. AI is great because he didn’t have to get out of his way to show you how great he was.. I saw him lose his shorts at a home game and score w his pants around his ankles and it was no big deal Bc AI was balls out 365.. Larry did everything on purpose. Unbelievable. .. and Dwyane Wade is the classiest human person that ever played basketball. I am glad I saw them all. and xmac31 came from loving Reggie Miller. lastly for the record my favorite athlete ever is PIP. what kind of a savage human person do you gotta be to be great at everything and only show it once or twice when you know he has to be lowkey semisalty always when you know you statistically are the best 2 way player in the modern era and kawhi and LBJ never said thank you
iverson was such a monster back in the day wish detroit woulda let him start at pg with hamilton at the sg and let mcdysess run the center with rasheed at the pf they coulda smashed, but oh well iverson is still amazing, so amazing
@TiKayedge You can argue who the better shooter is but lmfao @ reggie being a better o/a player than Ray, that's absurd. Reggie said it himself that Ray is better off the dribble and at taking it to the hole, Reggie was a catch and shoot player his ENTIRE career Ray is just limited to that due to him being on a team with 3 other all-stars. Reggie could never cross you up drive to the hole and throw one down on you like Ray could. Sorry man..
Actually think about this, Reggie single handedly led the INDIANA PACERS to the nba finals and 5 conference finals appearance. No offense to Ray but Reggie had an absolute killer instinct that Ray
iverson of 01 is unstoppable
His whole career before the sabotage.
He was special
05 as well
Except the Lakers
A.I doing the Euro-step before it WAS the euro step hahaha..
Man I can't imagine basketball without A.I....MY FAVORITE PLAYER EVER!!!

I think Lebron team was a bit worse, but for the fact that AI did it at basically my size made it so much more impressive.
@@Abstrack23 Iverson's 2001 is the GOAT, Lebron's 2007 is a close second though
Two legends going at it.

Allen Iverson is the greatest player of all-time.
he just dominates!! this is 1 of his top games 4 sure!
Reggie Miller was extremely underrated!
That move at 1:09 😤SHEEESH!!!
I love Reggie but no one was stopping AI at this time.
Just remember that Miller eliminated Iverson two years back to back prior to this season. Miller was the Iverson stopper. Miller is 2-1 in the playoffs against A.I
@@LovingYouDailydoesn’t matter. After 01 the pacers were irrelevant to Iverson.. it was the pistons who were the new problem
@@GetBackRy3x pure bull💩. Pacers was in the conference finals facing off against that pistons team in 04 while iverson was home watching. I'm a fan of iverson but let's not trash miller's greatness.
Back in the day he was the best player of the world.
I miss him...
There was a game I believe where miller an rose scored 40 a piece against the sixers in a game
The good old days!
I remeber this game reggie miller was beyond on fire in the first half, it was ridiculous! lol
would like to see more games from this series.
Nah go look up the eastern conference semi finals of the same year, sixers advance past pacers.. Ai and Vince Carter, most ridiculous series I've ever witnessed
I think you should have called this just allen iverson 45 pts
Can you provide a link to the complete game?
Reggie was 👑
People watching this Vide be Like.... Wow Iverson Owning the Pacers.... Ignoring How Can a 35 year Old Miller scores 41 points in the PlayOffs
35 yr old Reggie Miller went blow for blow with 25 yr old MVP iverson in this series ...crazy

he still is mi dude
iverson was such a monster back in the day
wish detroit woulda let him start at pg with hamilton at the sg and let mcdysess run the center with rasheed at the pf
they coulda smashed, but oh well
iverson is still amazing, so amazing
2:44 is called the bunny hop lol
1:09 to 1:13 beautiful move
@zelem92 Not really in the early 2000's. Just 2000. They were in the 90's and one of those years, like 03 or something.
You have the full series
Nothing
But
Allen iverson
lil bow wow was at this game
AI was doiNG Europe step way back in days. They didn't call it that then. It was his magic
Best player ever to me. AI
I had a friend years and years ago. Just going on and on about how AI was and i'm like yeahhh right Reggie can lock him down. How wrong I was. :(
AI tenth gr8est of all time, the only other player after MJ to take the NBA by storm n loved globally.
Wasn't 2001 Reggie last year
sixers need pat croce
AGREE...
okay, iverson made free throws, I think we get it
man almost every shot by a.i. was nothin but net geez miss em/
i think the reason that they lose is because they focus more on 2 pointers while others like kobe keeps on shooting 3 pointers
Clutch:
Reggie miller > Jordan >>> Kobe
Shooting
Reggie miller > Ray Allen
miss a.i :(
old AI!!!!
Competitor....AI
yay penny
@russelkeith hate to say it but jordan was a better scorer than iverson ok go look at the stats

@@rattlehead54321 Exactly Reggie Miller is the Best Go Pacers
@CPBlazier ray allen is a better shooter who has made more 3's huh not reggie
Iverson never use a pass
demand rates subsribes? and comments for pennyccw and me....wonder wat ccw stands for!!
Quick silver...AI
