In Hindsight was taking AI number one overall THAT smart of a pick?

[BrothaZay]

na ai is a goat, ray allen would have never taken his teams where ai took his

Why wouldnt he?

 

[G-Zeus]

You fittin to get destroyed playboi

dont care.. i am not even an AI fan..

but truth is the truth.. Kobe and AI are both straight to the basket type players (nowadays kobe shoots but back then)

his body wouldnt have taken it...

it is what it is.

They should have taken Kobe. They brought him in for a workout and he shytted on their current players. AI was a chucker that played no D and shot terribly from the field. Aside from 2001, his career is forgettable.

And that run was overrated because

A. The team defense was the number one reason they were winning
B. The East was trash
C. How up and down Iverson was throughout that playoffs

Yea, someone that is currently in their 16th season, leading the league in ppg shooting over 53 % would not be able to adjust. First off, Kobe and AI were not similar. AI was 165 pounds at 6 feet. Kobe is 6'5 200+ even back then as a younging. AI was a PG therefore had to battle through screens. Kobe did not. They were not even remotely close to being similar.

negged and appropriately rated.[/

Iverson will go to the hall of fame and is one of the best players of all time...took the sixers to the championship when nobody else could...and his team was ass cheeks...Matt Geiger? Aaron Mckie? Older Derrick Coleman? Inversion took these guys to the fukking finals!!!!

Will Iverson really be in the HOF?

dude Kobe's knees went out too..

would have went out 7 season earlier if he had to play like he did 2004 to 2008

act like Shaq wasnt the man then

That's easy to say when AI didn't have shaq or pau helping him out. And now Kobe needs Dwight and Steve too!? GTFO and show some respect to one of the goats

He has damn near 10 scoring titles and an MVP....he's going easily

We're talking about Kobe here, not some regular chump. Doesn't matter if Shaq was the man, Kobe still contributed more to his team than AI did. Also Kobe carried his team all throughout the western conference playoffs(the actual finals, ask the Kings and Spurs) which is a FACT

 

[BrothaZay]

Kobe held AI to zero points and like 4 turnovers

 

[GzUp]

Kobe held AI to zero points and like 4 turnovers

In the finals?

Milwaukee should`ve been in the 2001 Finals instead of Philly. The Bucks got screwed
