Who was the first to limp down the tunnel pregame in full hiphop attire, scaring the shyt out of America (and making Stern put in the dress code)?

Even if he averaged 10ppg, he belongs in the Hall off of his trendsetting alone. Nobody's had a bigger cultural impact on the league itself, and also on we who follow it.:yeshrug:

who was the first guy to have an ego so large he refused to take on a role as a reserve player when his skills were diminishing so he went overseas instead of having to check his ego at the door?

No ball player since Jordan had the cultural impact Iverson had.

Kobe, LeBron, and Shaq all are/were huge and had plenty of influence as well, but nobody really wanted to be or act like them outside of the basketball court.
