The great Allen Iverson to get a statue in front of the 76ers arena

Idk about a statue. No titles only like 33rd on all time points with curry and derozon next to pass him. If he shot better then 42% his stats would be far more impressive.

AI resonated with young black fans because of the way he dressed, looked and talked. It was the street element. His influence was bigger than his basketball skill. Black male teens wanted to be like him. Black women and girls thought he was cute. I use to see so many of them wearing his jersey when jerseys was the fashion thing in the early 00s.

Does Barkley, Moses, Dr J, or Wilt have statues? If they don't then Iverson shouldn't be getting one

Why?
Speaks more so of his impact to the game. Context matters, 50 years from now some kid is going to look up his stats like you did and see him way lower than 33rd points scored and say the same thing. You had to live through the MVP, the sneakers, the commercials, the interviews, etc to appreciate the value he brought to the league and basketball as a game.
This mentality is toxic.A statue for a dude that never won a title.
daily reminder outside of Kobe, AI is basketball.jetflyinglimousineriding

He aint even win shyt. He was also an inefficient chuck compared to the players in his era. Iverson dont deserve a statue.

Moses didn't start in Philly. Iverson is beloved by Philly differently than all those mentioned other than Doc.

This is being done by the 76ers.
Wilt brought them their first title I believe
Moses one of the greatest players ever started in the NBA with them, technically NBA doesn't count ABA record I think so he started in Philly and him and the doc won a title
Barkley another atg player who gave years to Philly.
Sorry ai jumping the line over atg player, greater than him who brought titles doesn't sit right with. Me.
Doc and Wilt have statues. Theres a small Barkley and another smaller Doc one at the practice facility in Camden.
Iverson definitely deserves one outside the arena.
