He was like the DMX of basketball in the 2000s

@@aaronhageman9064 yes he was rest in peace to DMX

No doubt... I still remember in middle school everyone's style and game want to imitate AI

@@milkyjaredtado6402 Everybody obsessed with rings. Kerr und Fisher have 5 rings each, but AI was still the better guard.

@@aaronhageman9064 dmx technology in his shoes too R.I.P. DMX 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐕🐕🐕

And he was playing injured throughout the playoffs.

11:07

wdym he literally got mvp

He gets a lot of credit tho

Nba legends praise him that alone speaks volumes

He actually in the hall of fame shows his hard work payed off

Yeah they do, in Philly sports he's a freaking legend and some would put him above Dr J and Wilt as the best Sixer to play.

Hi, Neighbor! No player today in the NBA has the heart for the game like Iverson.

westbrook has the same heart iverson did

He’s only 6 flat lol that’s not even little.

ensayofr Lmfao there’s no such thing is 5’12 😂😂😂 What world do you live in ?

ensayofr FIVE TEN TO FIVE FOOT ELEVEN

For life

Facts

Kobe and Iverson were cold-blooded Killers going at it every night. That's why they respected each other at the highest level. The difference between them was the help they got. Iverson gets a over-the-hill dikembe mutombo, and a bunch of role players... Kobe gets the most dominant big man and three-point assassin's backing him. It was never going to happen for the 76ers.

​@@paysonfox88Over the Hill? Dikembe was DPOY.

That game between Lakers vs sixers finals. I used to hate Kobe that time because he beat my favorite player iverson. But man, I can't believe he is gone and I'm devastated. Not a fan but I still respect and love him. RIP koby and gigi!! I'm so sad. :(

@@artpena3266 We lost the legends Basketball player. Kobe Bryant

Dats true!

FACTZ!

Facts what AI lacked in size he definitely made up for it with his heart & the way he played

@@jayrdot5240 TRUE!

Iverson was great in this series, unfortunately Steve Javie had other opinions on that fact. Should of gone 7 games but Iverson was hung out to dry . Too much star power in L.A. Kobe knew the truth that's why he always praised Iverson.

So did Lebron

how the fuck people don't understand the difference between their and they're

+Cahyo Bimo bro swing then. Shut yo unnecessary ass up.

+Devin Wortman shut yo ass up nigga this is youtube you prolly a white person anyways

Lol great point!

@@novictimhere2205iverson is just kyrie without rings lol

He would've been another scorer. Players now are more athletic so they'd guard iverson better than the slower players of then. He was a pure shot cgucker and his offense wouldn't be as special today.

@@elcuh9976 Kyrie might have the better handles and finisher but Iverson's got the grit, hustle, and heart that Kyrie don't have. This is why I think that Iverson will be a better player in this current league than Kyrie is

@@Jyoujib123 still no ring sadly so kyrie better

@@elcuh9976you sound silly as f*

imagine if he got to play with shaq in his prime

+mickee06 Wouldn`t be even fair...

shit woulda been crazy!!! LOL wish I could go back in time and manipulate shit just to see what would have happen!!! LOL (It is what it is though)

Rj Macready 100th like...you're welcome

Rj Macready he made himself look like the great AI he is, crazy how a 6 foot tall guy carried a full team to the finals full of actual legends. Love the answer

Man I know exactly what you mean. I may be a world away in Indiana but relate exactly to what your saying I’m 33 btw AI was my fave and couldn’t stand Kobe or LA. Looking back now it’s amazing what we got to witness in that era and I relate to the throwing trash away yelling KOBE !!! Man what a bunch of legends in that era and I definitely took it all for granted. Sure isn’t the same now

34 from Indiana too. The 90s and early 2000s was great basketball.

You right. Fire comment 🤞🏾🔥

35 here. I had just turned 14 when this game occured. Playing nba 2k2 on sega dreamcast on the daily after school back then lol. Those AOL chatrooms were something serious for us early 2000s teens lol.

32 as well no disrespect to Jordan I still don't fancy him AI was everything to me I could care less what anybody said AI was the reason I started watching basketball I still watch his highlights today he was just unbelievable

Your lucky he didn't have help

@@rudyleal2579 George lynch got 😞

Other superstars like Kobe and Jordan weren't even lucky guarding a 5'11 iverson, iverson at the height of 5'11 was dunk on centers bigger than sqaq, he was pretty much unguardable at 5'11 because he was the quickest most explosive guard ever, he shattered Jordans ankles with a wicked crossover and nobody else could do that to Jordan because Jordan is probably the best defensive player ever

@@jakedooley5300 The best defensive player ever was Dennis Rodman...

NO QUESTION FACTS

you forgetting AI was 5'11 on a good day, that's the main difference

@@pdawg423yea that’s facts, Kobe once said had AI been taller he would’ve been the greatest player of all-time!!

Yes sir.

You are correct but after that mj retaliate and beat sixers with huge margin.

THAT'S PEACE BRO!

Larry turd had heart to

That's why all the greats that played with him give him all RESPECT!

Facts life sucks

😂 for real, what happened, I was in 10th grade when this game happened and life was awesome, now it's just life.

+Hi, Neighbor! never gets old

So saucey 😭😭

Yeahhhh

mo kamara ??? Really show some respect dude

@@davidfox1979 pba

No load management here

Good defense but the bad pass helped as well 😅

4:15 to 4:27 Kobe was hacking though

1akiberu his jumper was straight up 💦💦

He's not even a shooter. That was just willpower making that shit drop. Never again in his career was he this consistent in shooting the ball as he was here

He had a good release

He was better in 04-06..

Rey Parker u crazy as fuck

In Football soccer the King :Pele from Brasil ,in Basketball the king: Iverson !

CANT POSSIBLY COUNT HIM OUT NEVER FACTS

Btw I just uploaded a new video on this channel! Check it out!! ukposts.info/have/v-deo/kp2TZKKYZISfqqc.html&lc=z13wzfu5pt2zgjite223dhnjasaxstcht04

The FactsRemain exactly. I'll pay to see this any damn day of the week. I'll call in sick, fake my death or any shit lol.

The FactsRemain he played his heart out you can see his passion for the game 💯

Just look in that Man's eyes

go watch game 3 and say that......................

Hell yeah

+SDS Overfiend yeah man HE WAS ON ANOTHER LEVEL THAT YEAR........I WAS THERE THIS GAME...In this game HE stole the ball and was by himself and had a WIDE OPEN LAYUP............instead of going for the EASY LAYUP.........this DUDE stopped from behind the 3PT LINE.......AND SHOT A DAM THREE.............AND MADE THE SHIT........I WAS LIKE IS THIS REAL.........I NEVER SEEN NO ONE DO THAT SHIT.......ESPECIALLY IN THE FINALS........NOT EVEN JORDAN........LOL........IVERSON WAS ON A WHOLE OTHER LEVEL THIS YEAR MAN............He was just as good or GODAM CLOSE.......TO ANY OF JORDANS BEST SEASONS THIS YEAR.........NO EXAGERRATION ....AT ALL!

Zavier Smedley He pulled up on a fast break for a 3 lmao!!! His scoring output at his Height was simply amazing. A.I. Pound for Pound one of the illest 2guards ever.. If he had a Ring.. "The Best"

word

+SDS Overfiend AMEN Fam

what those ugly ass reebox?

You know they just came back out with those too right? About a month ago

A lot of people forget he was playing injured

Kobe most overrated player of any sport

Mutumbo was pretty good, but it's true the rest of the team besides them sucked. But it's also true that the only time they made the finals was with the help of mutumbo

Not really. Mutumbo was a defensive star, but WAAY past his prime we he was traded to philly. When I mention Superstar or Star, I and most others mean good or great on both ends of the floor. Or great in one area and good in another. Mutumbo averaged like 11ppg, 12reb and 2.5 blks while in Philly. He was defense only. Not as great as everyone wants to think, otherwise he would be in the Hall of Fame already.

Truth!

DIKEMBE was an all star!!! though he was known for his defense, he was also great in rebounding and shared some quality points too!!! MUTUMBO was a legit all star!!!

***** Those guys were bench players on most other teams

Championship Boxing Kobe

@@hamzahaimeur6603 He's the Basketball player

*on him

Creative lmao

SureGamer1 what's funny?

Creative AI was bustin all over him huh?

Bob Doe hell yea lol

Who the hell calls Kobe the G.O.A.T? He wasn't even the best player on 3 out of his 5 championship teams. But the rings argument is very stupid.

***** All of Kobe's 5 championship has the homecourt advantage.

lmaoooo u crazy.........and Kobe is the 2nd best player.........go watch game 3 and see how the lakers and Kobe respond.....oh thats right we know.....RING

Joe Tracy For me a ring doesn't metter, Koby never better then Iverson if you know play basket

SNaPSHoT Gaming boy calm down kobe was the sidekick to shaq. Iverson had.... Old mutombo... Lol yeah fair battle. Not to mention Iverson is 6 feet maybe

AI was the man, KOBE is a wanna be JORDAN

he would indefinitely be the GOAT if he had won the 6ers a ring this championship.

He didnt virtually win the series if it fucking happened you piece of shit

Billy McCartney You're quite an angry little child aren't you?

y0Tezzeck allen iverson IS considered one of the all time greats

Time flies

Javian Johnson boutta be 19

This 1st game was great Frobe vs A.I.

21 yrs ago now and I remember watching this game live!

@@biglex78523 years ago

I Wish THE SIXERS CAME BACK

Being a Laker fan and a diehard Kobe fan I refute this statement but just for this one game A.I. stopped the Lakers from becoming the greatest playoff team of all time

Patient & Come back is the mother fucked real!

he was especially once u factor in his size and how much he had to overcome

In his size

he was definitely more deadly than kobe in the playoffs... but not jordan... that's why Iverson the only one that sits behind jordan in points avg in playoffs and regular season.

Love it!

+Sui Maan think you mean 12:17

"he was holding me the whole time" 😂

Wasn't at no damn 12:33 , smh

Travis Adams well put.....

+Travis Adams Pound for Pound the greatest to ever play. And that is not meant as disrespect to any other players, Iverson was just out there every night doing things players could only dream of. I truly believe he was a leading force in one of the three waves that revolutionized the sport of basketball in its entirety.

you forget the team was built around shaq kobe could have scored more if he wanted too

+Lamont Brown You forget that Kobe actually took more shots than he was supposed to.. One of the reason him and Shaq beefed.

Ai is at 42.5% and Kobe is at 44.7%

Tmac

@@siegtv9305 tmac wasnt winning tho

@@thegoatmane2715 u should watch more tmac vs kobe 2001-2004 tmac was the best player in the nba till he went to houston. mac went downhill but kobe continued to improve. prime tmac (orlando) would go toe to toe and even beat kobe or any other superstar player there is.

@@siegtv9305 i shouldnt do nothing cuz i already see all their careers. Tmac was a great talent but wasnt a winner. Hes in the melo category

@@siegtv9305 nope kobe & ai were always the best. Tmac was always behind them shaq & duncan. Facts. Vince had a better career than tmac so did paul pierce.

Fucking facts

nba ruined allen iverson

I wish he has a good team so him and my city would won a chip

Not true at all... Hes no Kobe..

+1017 Swole Goku lmao...better

My block came outside too …Philly! 😂

they had no chance because of shaq. one person could not stop Shaq

+Adnan Hot Yeah and if the Shaq and Kobe died right before game time

+Original KRN No,it was indeed a great team but the referees were on their side most of the time

+White Iverson Mutumbo was never a good scorer so they never had a chance, not to mention they had a bad bench

+White Iverson Mutombo could be in his prime taking steroids, he still wouldn't be able to defend Shaq. While u are knocking Mutombo, just remember that they wouldn't have made to the finals without him.

I wont go that far

+Young “BossDon” Cartel I would

also curry couldn't

even Kyrie cant handle him

Young Cartel 44 points on Jordan and Pippen as a rookie. Lebron ain't locking AI bro
