all of u people who hate iverson i can see why he has some flaws but so does everyone (i like him and he is one of my fav players to watch) but for all the people who hate him, how can u not cheer for him in the playoffs he is so much fun to watch he runs a 100 mph up and down the court and plays with more heart that anyone in the nba i really hope he gets a ring. if kobe had half of iversons heart he would be thought of as the best player in the game. just had to get this off my chest, watch there game and u will become a fan of his atleast in the playoffs.
Practice? We talkin' 'bout practice. I was a huge fan until that stupid ass quote. Now I despise him and think his attitude is what is wrong with sports.
The guy shoots less than 43%, ok.. thats not good. ok, yeah, I admit, he's got more moves than a funky chicken, he's fast as lightning, quicker than a speeding bullet.. but he's no Superman until he figures out the object of the game - which is to consistently put the ball in the basket! until he can do that, he's Clark Kent stuck in the phone booth without a cape.
I'm always up and down on Iverson. I loved him in college, but then kind of disliked him in his first years as a pro. Then he led his team in the Finals, and everyone was obsessed, even David Letterman. But then came the stupid fiasco about practice. I wish he would learn to be a better passer. How can you say Kobe has no heart? The guy plays D about as hard as anyone and he always wants the ball in the clutch. He may be the hardest working player in the NBA.
please kobe does not have half the heart that iverson has kobe plays hard but he shows no emotion but a little smirk going up the court like he thinks he is the best, he is cocky and punched his teamate how is that good for the game, watch the game iverson is so into it not sayin kobe isnt but kobe just b****s and whines to the officials if he does not get a call.
So does Carmello Anthony and he is in consideration for the #1 draft pick, i am not saying Iverson isnt better than Kobe, i just dont see why someone cant go down the court having a smirk on there face after they scored a bucket or something. I think Kobe knows he isnt the best, but one of the best in the leauge right now.
