If everybody wanted to be like Mike in the 90s but most definitely everybody wanted to be like Iverson in the early 2000's. He is an icon
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 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐕🐕🐕
This man carried the whole team against juggernauts . Legend.
And he was playing injured throughout the playoffs.
A.I doesn’t get enough credit, people don’t realize how amazing he was.
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.
The symbolism of AI stepping over Lue is so poetic. The Sixers were up against a giant in the Lakers, and after hitting that step back, AI stepped over the only guy on the court shorter than him. He hadn’t just drawn first blood on the giant, he became the giant in that moment. He looked twice the size he really was in that moment.
11:07
A.I. was so fun to watch. Just this lil dude running around non-stop scoring at will from anywhere on the court.
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
These are some of the first memories of my life. I can’t believe Kobe is gone. I will never forget Kobe and Iverson.
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.
Omg! 48 points against kobe and shaq! We miss you AI...the king of cross over!👍👍👍
Allen Iverson is the most underrated player of all time.
Only a few players ever had the "killer instinct." A.I. Was one. Straight killer!!! How many people probably got intimidated by Shaq and Kobe, not Iverson.
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.
I can't take the cavs serious right now because Iverson stepped over they're head coach.
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!
Iverson at 6 feet was a superstar in a league of giants. I can’t just imagine how good he would have been playing in this soft and smaller players league.
@@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*
Rip to a legend man. Everytime I throw something and yelled “Kobe” was based on my memory of this game. Now it’s “For Kobe”
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
Allen Iverson is one of the greatest players of all time the difference between him and Kobe was this. Kobe had a great team behind him to step up when he couldn't Allen Iverson did not end of story. Allen Iverson carried the 76's on his back when he was in Philadelphia.
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!!
Such an iconic game. I love and respect A.I
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
That's my childhood right there man. This definitely takes me back. I'm 32 now but I remember this broadcast like it was yesterday. I was 13 years old watching this at a family get together at my aunties house in San Diego. This game was a classic.
My little cousin Justin had just been born. Allen Iverson was my favorite player. I can't believe its been 19 years. Just like I can't believe that Kobe just died last month. Time flies and certain things change in the process.
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
Iverson was incredibly quick and extremely athletic and played with heart, what more could you ask for?
Allen Iverson deserves to be reverence, respected and appreciate HE made the NBA more popular since Michael Jordan..with his sick street-like crossovers and a heart BIGGER than ANY NBA player in history of the sport (NO APOLOGY) The little man is great
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!
11:02 The iconic Iverson-stepping-over-Lue play
+Hi, Neighbor! never gets old
So saucey 😭😭
Yeahhhh
mo kamara ??? Really show some respect dude
@@davidfox1979 pba
In the words of the late, great, mamba. "We're lucky he wasn't 6"5."
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
This little guy is the most passionate hardworking player I have ever seen
He's not even hitting any rim on ANY of his J's.
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
Iverson hits the craziest midranges ive ever seen
In Football soccer the King :Pele from Brasil ,in Basketball the king: Iverson !
CANT POSSIBLY COUNT HIM OUT NEVER FACTS
I miss those days when life was exciting lol.
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.
I remember them days when kobe dropped 56 one night then iverson came back and dropped 58 the next night
big respect to A.I. one of the best to ever play the game he will never be forgotten
He was holding me the whole time lol
He was holding me the whole time!
Mayne Iverson is a LEGEND!
I miss these days of real dedication NBA
No load management here
A.I's swag was just unmatchable. One of my favorite players.
When You Realize Just How Passionately Competitive, Unique, And Absolutely Tantalizing A.I's Game Was💯✅👌💪🔥
Btw I just uploaded a new video on this channel!
Check it out!! czcams.com/video/Zmb0la-NnIs/video.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
I love and miss Kobe Bryant 😞 and he's next in line right behind MJ🐐 but when I watched A.I. smh..this guy was special. 6'0 tall carrying a whole team on his back..unbelievable. If he had just a little help, we would all be singing a different song right now.
Kobe most overrated player of any sport
Kobe's defense 3:10 to 3:40. Awesome. You can only really appreciated it when watching it slow mo. He's got his eye on Iverson and he's still able to get to ball first with his back essentially facing the ball.
Good defense but the bad pass helped as well 😅
4:15 to 4:27 Kobe was hacking though
That layup on Shaq whew awe man! This was Iverson night.
Basketball then: Iverson steps over player. Creates memorable moment.Basketball now: Iverson steps over player. Technical.Let them play.
That's not much of a duel. That's one guy with a machine gun vs one guy with a spork.
go watch game 3 and say that......................
R.I.P. Legend! Some didn’t appreciate your greatness! Legends last forever!
Championship Boxing Kobe
@@hamzahaimeur6603 He's the Basketball player
AI had to carry his whole team of role players. He was an outstanding player. i loved to watch him play.
A lot of people forget he was playing injured
“He was holdin me the whole time” AI is a LEGEND
I begged my mom all summer 2001 for the exact same Iverson's, she got em for me too 💪🏾
what those ugly ass reebox?
You know they just came back out with those too right? About a month ago
A.I. was the truth...rip Kobe Bryant.2 of the greatest ever Philly in da house!
Are used to watch Alan Iversen highlights and games before my own games when I was in high school. The dude was just so inspiring I would go into every game fearless because Alan Iversen was fearless. Most inspiring and influential ever.
it's so many things to say about Iverson but the only thing I can think of is legendary the best player without a ring but damm he put on a show 🔥💯
“He was Holding me the whole time” Legendary 🐐🏀😭😭🤷🏽♂️ A.I
A.I. changed the game in so many ways his style of how he played his style on and off the court i was blessed to grow up watching him
Favourite game. Still cant believe how he pulled this crazy shit on such a big team.
Nice NBA times...Iverson, O'Neal and Bryant at their absolute peak. And those 00-01' Lakers were one of the best teams EVER.
AI was one of the best players of all-time. Not saying he's top 10 or anything, which that can be argued. But look at Kobe when he didn't have a team around him after Shaq left.....he took most of the shots. Look at Jordan before Pip and Phil got there, he took most of the shots. AI NEVER had a team around him, so he had to take most of the shots. No one can name one star or superstar that AI played with during his prime that was on his team. And no, Denver wasn't when he was in his prime. It was from 2000-2006. And for everyone that says he was a ball hog, these are his CAREER stats. 26.7 ppg, *6.2 apg* , 3.7 reb, 2.2 stl.
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
That man lit 🔥 in that stadium,”he was holding me the whole time”,I believe it .At that timeNBA players were saying A .I was the fastest player at that time.
Miss ivo in the NBA, spoke from his heart, gave us some great ball to watch
48pts to 15pts.. This wasn't a duel.. A.I. Dug in that Ass game one.
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
Allen Iverson would be considered one of the all time greats if he had won this series virtually by himself.
he would indefinitely be the GOAT if he had won the 6ers a ring this championship.
Billy McCartney You're quite an angry little child aren't you?
y0Tezzeck allen iverson IS considered one of the all time greats
I cried watching this when these two battled brought back so many memories RIP KOBE
Prime Iverson is maybe the only player in NBA history that could beat Kobe and MJ 1-on-1
The Greatest Scoring Guard Ever
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.
Kobe was playing good D on him in the first half AI was just bustin em in his face...was just too good
*on him
Creative lmao
SureGamer1 what's funny?
Creative AI was bustin all over him huh?
Bob Doe hell yea lol
Allen Iverson is one of the Goats of the NBA who never really gets mentioned when you talk about the greats but I. My opinion he was one of those guys that couldn’t be stopped.
A game I remember from my childhood. Iverson is the reason I started watching the NBA.
Imagining A.I carrying his team to the FINALS
Damn that 6'1 guard is a BEAST
Can't believe this was 18 years ago TO THIS DAY
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’ll NEVER forget this as an 11 yr old kid. “The Famous Jet Jackson” premiered on Disney the same night as Game 1. Shaq is my all time fav player & I cheered for Iverson, my 2nd fav player!
Lifelong Sixers fan, and it was such a pleasure to watch this guy every game.
I remember watching this game, and thinking we might have a shot, but LA was just too good.
Hell of an effort to win this game though, down 21-5 on the road in game one of The Finals.
Iverson is my favorite player so I am biased but people look at Iverson's career as a SG instead of a PG, which he played for most of his career it's really phenomenal.
Compared to other SGs like Kobe:
ppg: 26.7 vs Kobe's 25.4
asts: 6.2 vs Kobe's 4.8
FG%: 42% vs Kobe's 45%
3P%: 31% vs Kobe's 33%
stls: 2.2 vs Kobe's 1.5
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%
Legendary AI. 👌🏻
Rip Kobe and AI is right up there amongst the greats he’s all heart
AI was the man, KOBE is a wanna be JORDAN
Talk about good times !!!! I miss this era of the nba . I’m thankful to have witnessed . AI HAD HEART !!!! Rip Kobe
Two shooting guard legends and both are top 5 in being having the most influence to the game of Basketball - Kobe + AI. RIP Kobe.
Haha, it shows just how much Iverson did as a player himself. He outscores what some call the 'best player of all time' by 33 points, and they only by six.
The rings argument will always be confusing to me - Iverson was better than every player not named Shaq in this series. He truly deserved it.
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
The Step over Tyrone Lue is legendary till this day!
After this game I really thought philly had a chance lol. Was amazing 2 watch Iverson put the team on his back like this in the finals
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!
love that "AND STEPS OVER TYRON LUE". Perfect inflection lol
classic
May be my most favorite game ive ever seen
That game1 was my championship!! That gm brought tears to my eyes! And as a born SIXER fan growing up in LA its safe to say my neighbor's hated me that night!!
12:33 the disdainful smile on AI's face when the reporter talk about Lue's defence.
Love it!
+Sui Maan think you mean 12:17
"he was holding me the whole time" 😂
Wasn't at no damn 12:33 , smh
People don’t realize that AI was better than Kobe when they first came out of that 96 draft. He was better for a while before Kobe eventually took the reigns over AI but this game was a testimonial to that
Both of them where so hungry!!! Its insane!!! Kove started to overtake A.I a bit after realizing he wasnt gonna win on a square up technical game with him. (Shit, nobody could). He figured out to start using his size to his advantage
That’s a conversation people don’t wanna have but I 100% agree for a few years 00-03ish AI at 6ft talk was the BEST player in that league with nothing but hofers and legends all around him let that sink in!
This game featured 2 out of 5 of the best shooting guards of all time RIP KOBE ur legacy will never be forgotten.
Two Legends... RIP kobe
"He was Holding me the whole time" 😂 da 🐐
thanks for uploading these finals highlights! great to relive such greatness
He has to be one of the most exciting players to watch play the game outside of Jordan. Superstar
Iverson was increíble.
Athletic wise, Allen Iverson is truly the only player ever to go toe to toe with Kobe Bryant despite height differences, and besides Jordan of course...
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.
A.I somehow singlehandedly beat a team that nobody else could. Just needed more help
You will never see that type of 6’1 frame, blinding quickness, agility, handles, and all other attributes that made AI what he was..
Hmmm, I doubt that
Never seen Kobe AND Shaq schooled like this.
Remember watching this live,and my whole block running outside when we won 😭 #GoodTimes
My block came outside too …Philly! 😂
Iverson, es un fino clásico del baloncesto. Un lujo verle jugar.
I literally remember seeing Alen Iverson hooping for the first time at Georgetown...I knew when i seen him in College when he got to the league what he was gonna do...I had the Georgetown A.I jersey with the braids at the gym thinking I was A.I...People don't understand the kinda guts and tuffness u gotta have to play the way he played at his size..he was the size of like a regular guy but had super athletic
When the 76ers took game one I thought for sure the championship was a wrap. Allen so deserved to win a championship considering how he put his heart and soul into every game.
That step over is iconic ,just unbelievable
just show u if he had a team the answer would have 5rings he was the black sheep of the NBA
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
The best of the best! Kobe vs Iverson legends of the game. Passion, skill, heart they had it all.
One of best games I've ever watched. I was upset he took out my team (Raptors) but was cheering for him in secret during the series. This game was unreal. AI showed the world his greatness in this game. My favourite player of all time.
AI ripped kobe like 7 times. People forget how good AI was on defense
Didn't rip 7 times WHY U lying 3 times it was them others were through screens.
U missed that Kobe stole and blocked him 4 times now 🤔
1:19 Can we get this Original Song back on every NBA game please? Hearing this song brought back memories
fox brought the song back
🔥Watching classic games of the greats play 🏀 Never gets Old.🔥
I appreciate you for this brought me back to 9 years old ‼️💯💪🏾
even prime lebron can't handle this 2001 Iverson
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
still my favorite finals game 1 ever.
Probably the greatest Sixers game I've seen in my life
One of the best basketball rivalry...RIP Kobe
Holy sh&t!! Iverson's performance was craziness in this game!! Unstoppable! Kobe couldn't do anything against him either, even he played a tough D on him, it wasn't enough😮
