    lol iverson was way more explosive than Curry, and you realize MJ was 33 already there. All that said, anyone can get anyone with a good move. Doesn't mean anything. KJ dunking on Olajuwon means noting. It just left a nice highlight. That's it.

    Oh forgot to mention that those Iverson crossovers would all be palming these days. He and Kobe and Francis did a lot of that garbage back then. That stuff don't fly anymore. I prefer Currys style of ball handling.

    Steph Curry can suck it.

    Today's NBA stars are divas who are afraid of adversity.

    AI might have had the best cross over ever.

    ...Que? I would argue Hardaways crossover was better. No palming and it was so quick the defenders never even moved. Iversons crossover got you leaning making it look worse than it really was, even on that clip Jordan almost block the shot AI even acknowledged this in an interview. But i guess people forgot:

    It's also likely Iverson didn't guard MJ on the other end.... Curry wouldn't either.

    You're right, I totally forgot that AI would cross Jordan over every single time they were matched up together. Every. Single. Time.

    Yeah people forgot Hardaway's killer crossover, lightning quick. It's baffling that he almost always went right (feign left then cross to the right) and defenders still bit on the fake.

    Here another good video:

    He'd shoot 3 pointers from a few steps past half court so as to not be defended by MJ.

    With the hand checking rules of that era, Curry wouldn't be able to dribble the ball. He'd be a lesser Steve Kerr. /s

    Overrated move. How many titles has Iverson won? I never liked Iverson.
