The Icon, The Legend - Allen Iverson

To add just a quick note on what Sunder wrote below in regards to Allen Iverson, yah I still can't believe 30 teams wouldn't give him a shot. Don't get it twisted for a second, he'll still light you up for 30 if you are doubting!

--side note, that is the greatest cover of SLAM magazine ever, hands down, it was even voted as the best in their 100th issue...I'm gonna turn it into a poster for my room hmmmmmm

Allen Iverson as all my boys know, is in my top 3 of all time. He not only changed the way the game was played but he transcended the entire sport of Basketball and the hoop culture. He brought the hip hop, gangsta attitude that a lot of us ball fans keep in the closet, and showcased it for the entire world to see what we are about.

**i have a pretty serious day job, but if you were to listen to the ish I have in my car and berry, you'd think I was from the CPT son!!**

He wasn't my role model by any means but was a guy that I could definitely get behind and understand, he couldn't do much wrong in my eyes, cause a lot of the shit he got into....well I'd be doing the same ish if I had the luxuries he did!! "Practice?"

Wonder why all these NBA cats get tats? Wonder about the corn rolls phase? Wonder about the bling, gear and swag these NBA cats have? Where did it all come from......

Yah you get my point. I can literally go on and on and on about Allen Iverson. He's actually my Mom's favorite player of all time, cause she'd always say...."He doesn't give a f#ck!!!" If you know my Ma, then you know that's a 100% true statement, foreal!!

AI, wishing you the best, hopefully you find your way back to the L and get sent off properly.....you will always be the best player of all time below, 6ft. (I've seen him court side, its unbelievable to see a guy that size, do what he did).

I'm gettin emotional.....great.
