After the most epic games 1 performance in Finals history...Allen walks into the locker room casually and says "They can put the 🧹 up tho ain't gonna be none of that." Legend.
I'm from Chicago, If anybody heard me say this. This is Michael Jordan's town. But for me, My favorite Player of all time, Is the one and only Allen Iverson.He was someone who could put a team on his back,he never played on a great team,if he did he would be one of the greatest of all time. He's like James Bond.No one does it better.
John Thompson was a great coach he mentored coaches and produced great players to come un the NBA, Allen Iverson , Patrick Euwing, and Mutumbo, great players. Allen Iverson was a great guard in the NBA with a great crossover over one of the best.
What I simply loved about Iverson is that he could go to the whole and score whenever he wasted to. But what I really hate is that he didn't get a ring but Darko Milicic did.
If they tried to break him down like that it was because he was too black he was much too strong and he didn't conform 2 what would be considered nowadays as a sellout this would be my guess as to the haters because the Hall of Fame is the Hall of Fame right!!!
I was lonely and I'm 64 + 165 + November you always had heart in the game and always been a good player love Valentine's family hope you have a long life God blessing OG for Philadelphia
I loved the way this guy played best fastest player of all times no one couldn't stop him even some of the best player like Jordan couldn't stop him either I mean no one couldn't stop him
Iverson went to the same high-school I went to,Bethel in Hampton VA, he played QB and kick return. He used to let the ball bounce to him,pick it up and walk 10 yards and start running and score. He was so fast. ABERDEEN RAIDERS 4LIFE
Yeah, he was unbelievable as a high school all-around football player. And he did that despite being underweight. He made Bethel in to a power, and I don't think they've ever done anything in football once he left. He was a one-man team in football, outplaying entire teams in the Peninsula District.
In seeing this, it is apparent to me he never got the credit he fully deserved. I am one of those many millions of people that dud bot see the true talent he was! Blessings AI and thanks for doing you!
I saw him play in University Hall in Charlottesville, Virginia in the state semi-finals and then the state championship game. People wouldn't have recognized him back then if they started following his career later on. Back then, he had no tattoos (notice how Michael Jordan has never gotten a single tattoo), and he had no facial hair, so he looked wholesome actually. When I watched him play for Bethel High, it was hard to imagine that this was the guy who was so controversial, and he was controversial even before the supposed bowling alley "incident." Fantastic high school player, on defense as well as on offense. But like every high school blue-chip player, he was overrated as a pro prospect. He led his high school team to the state championship as an 11th grader, and those were the last two athletic contests he competed in, in his high school career. He didn't really help Georgetown win anything big. As a pro, he scored 30,000 points, but how many of those mattered? He had that one great year where he took Philadelphia to the NBA Finals and you can't take that away from him. If he had had half the business knowledge that Michael Jordan had, he could have broken the bank on endorsements. But Jordan grew up in an upper-middle class background, and Iverson was so poor that he grew up underweight.
Many times...from his time as watching him in high school in richmond,VA to grown and as a sixer playing against bullets/wizards. Respect AI great heart, leadership, and generational changing aura
41:00 oh my Lord, how I LOVE TO WATCH VINCE CARTER AND ALLEN IVERSON TOGETHER! Both my favorite players all time (besides MJ, of course). They both changed the game in their own ways. They both changed basketball culture, and that's why they have whole documentaries about them. And, for me, they both are the goats in their own thing: Vince is the highflying goat, and A.I. is the anklebreaker goat.
My favorite player...he is who i got everything from when I was in high school in jamaica....I got the braids...the drip.....practice every day on my Kross overs till I made my own ...he was fearless n if u didn't knw he had injuries every part of his body from head neck bak shoulder elbow wrist fingers legs thighs ankles toes an still was beasting ...I neva seen anybody like this...an he still made it an kontinued to ball without missing a step......I just wish he won a ring.....but ita all good though...also he brought kornrows an tattoos..jewelry n swag to the game....also he use to rap under the name jewelz ...if u knw u knw .... its love my guy...
The GREATS all have it least 1 ring. You have to know what it feels like to be part of a team that wins at 1 world championship to be great... You have to teach the top and experience the pinnacle of yours sport .... .. A.i. was a gifted athlete with a will to win.. But lets not kid ourselves you need to reach the greatest level to be great.. You cantraise a hand with out a ring when people ash whose great... Every player who has a ring is not great but EVERY GREAT PLAYER HAS A RING!!! ALLEN IS PROBABLY THE BEST PLAYER "WITHOUT A RING" THOUGH
7:42 Tony Rutland with his hand on the kid head. Coach Butch was my rec football coach as well. Aberdeen Raiders.damn those was the days. Deen DAY. ABERDEEN SHOULD BE A HISTORICAL LANDMARK FOR THE TALENT WE HAD COMING OUT OF THAT HOOD.
It was the corporate management of the NBA’s major sponsors and the conservative racists lamenting the rise of Black men that hated AI. True fans, of all races liked him because he was more like them physically. In many of the ways that they love Steph Curry now
Son super funny the first man to have a wave cap on at a post game interview first man to play an nba game with half braids and half fro out ,,,,,,,trend setter ,,,the father of the 2000 era in regards to dress style hair style swag all together invented the armsleeve first & only 1 to almost cross jordan on his face, look i mean we can go on &on here about this man ,,salut.
Hearing his mother talk about how she knew she had a ball player brought back a funny memory. When I was in the 6th grade I was 5 feet 7.5 inches tall and played football. Everyone including myself thought I'd grow to be 6'8" or somewhere close to it and easily in the NFL(I won many awards in football). Here I am at 40 years old........5 feet 7.75 inches tall lol. I still won more awards but the NFL thing never happened.
Pound for pound the best basketball player of all time!!! As a rookie, he embarassed a prime Michael Jordan with a double crossover move & outscored him in their very first NBA game. Only Allen Iverson Outscored Michael Jordan During His Prime, Stats Reveal
without question , one of the FIVE GREATEST players in NBA history . Loved my man then and to today . Super talent & competitor . Always enjoyed you perhaps when some had questions regarding your character , seems to me however, you have proven them all wrong . Wishing you and family much peace , love and goodness in your future endeavors. This UTUBE coverage career review really made my day and had me smiling and feeling good throughout . Thanks for the great !!!! GOODTIMES.
One of the greatest and the most gifted guards ever, that was ruined by the hood. Barkley told him to get out of the hood but he would not listen and like all ingenious persons in history ended like Amadeus, self confident to the sun and feeling immortal dying poor beyond comprehension.
That's definitely not how's he currently living & prayerfully he won't be in the future. He still has some investments and property ect that he's making money from. Keep hating..
From the highlight I seen of him at a Georgetown practice on fox 5 news they was talking about a new recruit then they showed him at practice I said than and there that he was the one and damn if I wasn’t right
To every problem there is a solution. To every question there is THE ANSWER. Allen Iverson.
After the most epic games 1 performance in Finals history...Allen walks into the locker room casually and says "They can put the 🧹 up tho ain't gonna be none of that." Legend.
Dude was just too cool
Pound4pound the quickest, the most dynamic, the most electrifying. The little big man award goes to Allen "pound4pound" Iverson.
I was late for work because I was watching his induction to the NBA hall of fame where he thanked EVERYONE who he helped him.
That speech was amazing.
6ers need some of that heart ❤ today. Damn be mad when you loose play to win. You can't teach that. A I is the Man.
AI was the first one who got me into a pro basketball game!! It was magical watching him play!
Allen Iverson, warrior 🪖, respect 💪💯.
Lord we use to LUV watching ALLEN♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
That was an Awesome documentary on "The Answer Allen Iverson". Much respect to him and family.
I'm from Chicago, If anybody heard me say this. This is Michael Jordan's town. But for me, My favorite Player of all time, Is the one and only Allen Iverson.He was someone who could put a team on his back,he never played on a great team,if he did he would be one of the greatest of all time. He's like James Bond.No one does it better.
Always one of my favorite players of all times, got to put him up there with Dr J, Jordan, Kobe.
High school national #1 player in both football and basketball.
To inspire a whole generation of kids by being himself
John Thompson was a great coach he mentored coaches and produced great players to come un the NBA, Allen Iverson , Patrick Euwing, and Mutumbo, great players. Allen Iverson was a great guard in the NBA with a great crossover over one of the best.
Understatement!!
Alonzo Morning
I
These were my most absolute players on. The Hoyas team,,, as a native Wasingtonian
,,it don't get no better than this. ( back in the day)...!!!
Keith David such a great narrator
Keith David is a legend..... Him as Spawns voice is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@westwud8995 hell yeah man that Todd macfarlane cartoon is a classic
I never would have knew. Thx!
Great voice GooD for commercials,video Games,an Voice overs.🤘🏾
Great story well deserved by a great player and good person who appreciated his fans.
Iverson was relentless. He is just a phenomenal player overall. 😎👍🏻🙌🏽
What I simply loved about Iverson is that he could go to the whole and score whenever he wasted to. But what I really hate is that he didn't get a ring but Darko Milicic did.
Still my favorite player. The system tried to break him. He overcome all that..
True.....the white owners tried to break his heart
If they tried to break him down like that it was because he was too black he was much too strong and he didn't conform 2 what would be considered nowadays as a sellout this would be my guess as to the haters because the Hall of Fame is the Hall of Fame right!!!
Top 8. Hall Of Famer
I was lonely and I'm 64 + 165 + November you always had heart in the game and always been a good player love Valentine's family hope you have a long life God blessing OG for Philadelphia
Always Always Always Love love love love 💖💖💖💖💖 A.I.
WE will Never loose our love & respect for him
This should be on a big screen love with Iverson is about Heart of a Lion and hats off to his mom incredible woman
I loved the way this guy played best fastest player of all times no one couldn't stop him even some of the best player like Jordan couldn't stop him either I mean no one couldn't stop him
Nobody really says it, but The Answer should came straight outta high school. Even then.

You're cool when all the boomers loves the crossover on MJ.. they can appreciate a crossover?? Dmn thats cool!
Love A.I. Toughest little man Ever!
As a raptor fan Iverson is most toughest point guard in NBA History
He's not a point guard, Iverson is/was a Shooting guard
Quickest sg
Lean and clean
Iverson went to the same high-school I went to,Bethel in Hampton VA, he played QB and kick return. He used to let the ball bounce to him,pick it up and walk 10 yards and start running and score. He was so fast. ABERDEEN RAIDERS 4LIFE

THE LITTLE GIANT WAS A REMARKABLE PLAYING HARD AND OUTCLASSED THOSE GIANTS IN THE RING IT WAS A REALLY PURE BASKETBALL SKILLS. HATS OFF 💯👍💪
Allen Iverson : A Phenomenal Player ; Legendary.
"Born ironically on Jordan Drive." thats crazy. I still remember the college game between him and Steph Marbury when I was kid.
Facts at the garden they was going at it

You wrote all rubbish.

Respect AI great heart, leadership, and generational changing aura
Did he play AAU in Richmond?
😒 huh?
So all that’s to say is he blew it because he came from a poor environment? That what you just said nigga? C’mon man make it make sense
I never knew Larry Brown moved him to 2 guard, what a legendary coaching move. This doc should be made into a major motion pic.
41:00 oh my Lord, how I LOVE TO WATCH VINCE CARTER AND ALLEN IVERSON TOGETHER!

Wow! The HARDWOOD collections, very nostalgic❤❤❤
Godbless Iverson mom.
THis draft was so good that pick 1 to 30 would have helped Philadelphia at some point. The best draft class ever lead by a legend IVERSON
My favorite player...he is who i got everything from when I was in high school in jamaica....I got the braids...the drip.....practice every day on my Kross overs till I made my own ...he was fearless n if u didn't knw he had injuries every part of his body from head neck bak shoulder elbow wrist fingers legs thighs ankles toes an still was beasting ...I neva seen anybody like this...an he still made it an kontinued to ball without missing a step......I just wish he won a ring.....but ita all good though...also he brought kornrows an tattoos..jewelry n swag to the game....also he use to rap under the name jewelz ...if u knw u knw .... its love my guy...

Jordan still hates the fact Iverson pulled off that crossover on him and will always hold a grudge against the man know in NBA LORE as THE ANSWER!!!!!
Love
Jordan could care less
Son super funny the first man to have a wave cap on at a post game interview first man to play an nba game with half braids and half fro out ,,,,,,,trend setter ,,,the father of the 2000 era in regards to dress style hair style swag all together invented the armsleeve first & only 1 to almost cross jordan on his face, look i mean we can go on &on here about this man ,,salut.
Iverson had too much talent for his iwn good. He just needed a few more good people in his camp. His game against the Lakers in game one. Legendary!!!
My favorite player ever súper versátil
My second All time besides Dr.J
Hearing his mother talk about how she knew she had a ball player brought back a funny memory. When I was in the 6th grade I was 5 feet 7.5 inches tall and played football. Everyone including myself thought I'd grow to be 6'8" or somewhere close to it and easily in the NFL(I won many awards in football). Here I am at 40 years old........5 feet 7.75 inches tall lol. I still won more awards but the NFL thing never happened.
I hated my fave player (AI) had to play my fave team (Lakers) I really wanted him to win a ring
Pound for pound the best basketball player of all time!!!
As a rookie, he embarassed a prime Michael Jordan with a double crossover move & outscored him in their very first NBA game.

Boa tarde congrats Allen lveson vai ex NBA 76 bom trabalho
Maravilla AI. El mejor
One my favs Hof #A.I
27:12 I’m convinced 🤔 he’s a mountain lion
This shit fire.
Yeah like Yeah don't see that Eagles print on his left arm.
One of the greatest and the most gifted guards ever, that was ruined by the hood. Barkley told him to get out of the hood but he would not listen and like all ingenious persons in history ended like Amadeus, self confident to the sun and feeling immortal dying poor beyond comprehension.
That's definitely not how's he currently living & prayerfully he won't be in the future. He still has some investments and property ect that he's making money from. Keep hating..
I think he gets a yearly pension from the NBA or maybe from a shoe company.
Best slam dunk ever came from AI on a rebound SLAM DUNK.
Iverson such a gen Z, way ahead of his time
What???
22/11/017
Uno de los mejores
NBA Player`S
They went after him, to.make an example of him.
He’s right. Now, players are dressing up like him than MJ, with matching tattoos and braids, jewelries, etc
All that's missing to his greatness is a championship ring...he should've gotten at least one
A.I. The Smallest Center that John Thompson Coached
En Cuanto reciba mis Bendiciones de Facebook Internacional Ahí Estaré
Anota The Rock Johnson
Just because jordan existed otherwise iverson would be the best nba player ever
In today's game AI would have gotten a ring on one of those super teams but back then there was only two super teams back then
I love Allen overdone! He set the standards of kool in the NBA
Being kool was important to me WELL IN TO MY TEEN YEARS.
AI 🤘🤘🤘🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Who's the narrator? It's the sa.e guy that did Ken Burns' The War. Peter Coyote perhaps?
Keith David from they live with Roddy piper.
When that made this dude...They forgot to put the quit in
Amazeballs !
Imagine if AI & Sir Charles played together surrounded by a great cast of role players.
inspired me everyday on the court
tried to emulate him to a T
wish he could have played longer
"You gotta big lead like that, and to lose it, in front of your 0wn crowd. ,is ridiculous"
The real Philly
Holy shit this man is amazing Ai is goat
From the highlight I seen of him at a Georgetown practice on fox 5 news they was talking about a new recruit then they showed him at practice I said than and there that he was the one and damn if I wasn’t right
Baller!
Mic 🎙️ drop.
Who was Team Captin before A.i. was?
After seein this. I think iverson is a decent guy. Just needed to grow and chill a bit.

Top 3 culturally influential Basketball players:
