People concentrating a single play or a single game to denote greatness. It's so funny watching all these videos of this guy got owned etc. All this stuff has virtually nothing to do with how great a player is. I been watching Basketball since 1970 and all this silly hood stuff cracks me up.

One guy named Lebron and some kid that can do a lot of insane tree throws but could not even tie the shoes of Iverson. Basketball has changed, not for the good.

Exactly. If you got someone dunking and taking 6 foot shots as your main guy making nearly 60% it's a winning combo versus a guy making in low 40%. O'Neal won titles with his teammates shooting poorly. When the guy taking most your shots about 15% more accurately than the other main player it's almost impossible to overcome. It's the smart way to play. It's what Jackson wanted. He understood. Could Shaq beat Iverson in a game of Horse? Nope. But if you got your main player taking easy shots versus difficult shots it's a done game. Iverson could only win if his teammates outplayed Shaqs by a great margin.

Technically not. The problem in a way was him. Sports leagues morph generationally. If a player is not willing to adapt then they have noone but themselves to blame. It does not take anything away from their past greatness but it's just that: past. AI's issue was discipline. The league was transitioning from the "super alpha male that did whatever he wanted" (Jordan smoking cigars before games kinda era. AI and being mad with practice and coaching), to a more play-based coaching style era. This was because of the dominance of the Lakers, the Heat and the Spurs. Hint what did all three have? Coaching and discipline: Phil Jackson, Pat Riley, Greg Popovich. It was silly in the face of that dominance by teams that could methodically beat you to continue relying on "the AI show" no matter how great it was. If he didn't adapt, no one really is to blame. Similar thing to say Melo. Or any pos 4's in today's game that hasn't adapted to the "big men should have jump shots and range" era.

Any conclusion would only be an assumption. Both are special and are pretty much unstoppable at one point. We saw prime Iverson but never had the chance to have a prime Rose. How can you even pick a winner?

The Allen Iverson issue with the way he dressed was such BS, the man was one of the few people who were actually very fun watching play. Not to mention the man played his heart out everyday, I used to love watching the 76ers play because Iverson turned the game into a show

Kevin I agree,the power that be didn’t like the “image” of what the NBA was becoming.A.I was the FIRST to have cornrows,flooded diamond jewelry,baggy jeans,tats and so that was looked at as being “hood”.....So the NBA MOB made him a target

I'm glad he wasn't afraid to be himself. That isn't my style or culture. I'm not from the city and I'm not from French lick. Larry bird should be Larry. IA should be IA. It's messed up that a league dominated by black players should have a problem with how he dressed. Also, grant hill is black, went to duke, and he has a more polished and "educated" image than IA or Byrd. I say "educated" formally because coach and executive larry bird ain't no dummy and neither is IA I imagine. All these guys (including hill) were proud of how they grew up and who they were. That's a great example for kids. OK, I better stop before I sing "we are the world. " haha

I still remember waking up at 4 am as a kid to watch AI vs Lakers (we live in a foreign country). I still remember that in the afternoon the next day, I'd play lakers on PS1 vs 76ers, my cousin, and he would just keep playing the entire game with AI, every single basket, and beat me.

Hard to afford talent when your' paying him so much money. Can't afford any one else. Geiger was a fine center, Snow, Lynch, Hughes, Webber,Coleman. And some others. They had good teams. He is the best pound for pound player ever. They rode em like a horse and shot em when he got slower. Abused by Philly and unappreciated by management. He deserved a better farewell his final season. Stern hated him!

Its no secret he was a big party man. In fact more of a party man than his continuance of practice to win and become even better.. Which leads to a bad combo and could eventually slow your performance (I'm from d.c, I can't tell you how many after parties was promoted in his name on 95.5 wpgc when I was a kid). There's a story, a coach seen Iverson at a restaurant and kept feeding him drinks. When he was finished Iverson walked over and told him. He's still going to drop forty on them...and HE DID.
