Allen Iverson is one of the most talented athletes I have ever seen. As a basketball player, I put him right up there, if not ahead of, Michael Jordan. He has the ability and talent to take over every game he plays in. Everytime he has the ball, he generates electricity. After Iverson's NBA career is over, he will be remembered as one of the elite players to have ever played basketball.
Allen Iverson started his career off with a boom. In his first NBA game, he recorded 30 points. This along with the rest of his game helped win him the Schick Rookie Of The Month Award.
Here is Iverson's interview after winning the award.
The NBA Rookie Game featured Allen Iverson as he showed that the other rookies didn't belong on the same court with him. He totally dominated both ends of the court, earning the MVP Award.
"Apparently, I must have done something, because I'm here now." -Allen Iverson
"I don't think the 76ers would have picked me if they wanted me to change any aspects of my game."-Allen Iverson
"All I wanted to do was play hard. That's all."-Allen Iverson
For the second time in his young career Allen Iverson went head-to-head with His Airness, Michael Jordan on Saturday, December 21,1996. Although, Iverson won the head-to-head battle, the Bulls won the war. Iverson had 32 points and Michael Jordan had 31.
Allen Iverson also got into trash talking matches with Rodman and Pippen which lead to several shoving matches between him and Rodman.
