Umm, hand check was eliminated in 1994. Iverson came into the league in 1996. Get your facts straight. I love how a lot of people just assume that all retired players played in the hand check era. Iverson was a beneficiary of the "breath on him and foul" thing. Besides, he was a career .313 3pt shooter. He was great at getting to the hoop using his speed, either making some difficult layups or getting fouled throwing his body to the defenders.

It's a myth that Iverson was facing harder defenses. It might LOOK harder because he couldn't shoot consistently from outside.

1997 (not 94), although they still allowed funneling until 1999

You started out by stating they are practically the same player...but now you'd 'obviously' take Rose over him?
There are a lot of reasons Rose is better than Ellis and you know what they are...why try and pretend like you don't?

Um, I would take Rose because he is a lot younger.

He has more time to improve his game. But Ellis is a great talent as well.
