Yes 😁👍🏽 I grew up watching Jordan play and then as an adult, I watched Iverson play against him and others.They are in my top 10 as 2 of my most favorite players ever 🤩❗
Absolutely. ESPN did a projecton on how much he would average in his prime.. it said he'll average 39ppg! Keep in mind that's without the ref baiting like James Harden
we can see that logic 39-40ppg, Mj would be 45-50ppg, all those superstars numbers would inflate as we are in the statistical inflation era with far more possessions per game.
They seldom called Michael for traveling if you watched back then. They happened to call one travel here, because it was very obvious. you used the one play alone to make a broad, inapplicable statement. Jordan basically invented the legal travel.
A P I believe the superstars traveling today are very similar to MJ. MJ really was the first to get “superstar” treatment, or no foul outs/travels. They would blatantly call fouls on other players instead of MJ so he wouldn’t foul out. I don’t blame the players, it’s the league that allows it. Why wouldn’t they take advantage of it?
@@Fabiy4 Well, yes and no, Iverson was a better scorer and slasher (overall as well). Kyrie is a better shooter, passer and DRIBBLER, Iverson has more effective and efficient handles both are GOAT finishers. Iverson could carry an offense.
MJ actually does a good job staying in front of AI and not getting completely burned, he recovers and contests the shot. and MJ wasn't in his prime Prime anymore. I would've loved to have seen 88-92 MJ defend Iverson. MJ says he was at his best in 91-92 when his game fully came together and he was in his peak athleticism.
2:21 "Travel" ??? WFT💥 The game was actually officiated, back then.This wasn't even a violation! It's absurd how current players are allowed to violate the rules (with impunity) to facilitate their "skills". As gifted as Kyrie is, he'd have to alter and REFINE his entire ball-handling arsenal to compete in the past. Only AI was commonly permitted to have "carrying" be integral to his repertoire💯
Sometimes I forget just how great Jordan was. It's so fun to watch his career highlights. He just couldn't be stopped and that's why he will ALWAYS be the GOAT!!
There are a lot of lessons to learn from clips like these, AI was an amazing player but never won a championship. You can be great but end it all feeling empty handed... others not so great can have amazing careers with all the gold in the end. You gotta pick your "friends" that set your path more then you do it to yourself.
Iverson didn't leave feeling empty handed. Iverson had a generation, Iverson can say he reset the margin for the NBA players of today. Prior to Iverson they wasn't bringing the street basketball element to the NBA. They was all by the book and shit. The day after he left the sixers for Denver half of the Philadelphia stadium or whatever was empty because he was gone. Even the sixers of today were nothing like the sixers of the Iverson Era.
These are two of my top 3 favorite players alongside Timmy Duncan. AI doesn't get enough love, imo he's the best pound for pound player and being barely 6 feet in Reeboks he went up against some monster bigs and still drove on them. He had one of the nastiest crossovers, just ask Ty Leu.
When people say that the evolved players of today would cause major damage back then , here’s a prime example of what evolution looks like vs the now , it’s not even an argument
@Sonic With all due respect, Iverson would've crossed Jordan at any stage of MJ's career. KB8/KB24 was VERY close to being identical to Jordan & look how Iverson handled him.
lol bro stop living in your childhood. You don’t see a single “hand check “ stopping anyone in this entire video. People are more skilled and athletic as ever in the nba
Classic NBA Game.. 2 Legends The Answer vs Air Jordan.. Iverson did one of the Best Moves in NBA History!!!. S/o to both Michael Jordan & Allen Iverson!!!!. 🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🎬📺📽
They blackballed Iverson after this… Outlawed his move… Changed the dress code… And tried to erase what happened… Iverson outscored Mj almost every time they played… But they will not tell you these things
I mean I do think it’s some truth in what you said. But that doesn’t change the fact that mj is the better player. And even with everything they tried to do to ai. He still shined through it all. You can’t erase the heart and just humanity that is ai.
Iverson had the crossover on MJ, but I remember this game he gave the Bulls the business. LIke, AI is more than just a crossover, man. He's a damn problem.
That should've been a "And 1" for Iverson..cause Jordan fouled him on the shot... but nobody seems to notice that..even after Iverson had to get up from getting knocked down...WOW
MJ definitely the GOAT. Iverson best shooting/point guard of all time!!!! LeBron has no finesse, moves or control of the ball really compared to these katz right here!!!
@Lisa Rose Definitely a travel but the reason your questioning it is because they let players get away with so much worse today that's why you don't think its a travel. Today's NBA is an absolute joke.
In Alen Iverson's Hall of Fame speech, he describes the moment when he saw Michael Jordan for the first time in that game and what he felt. He said I went onto the field and looked at him and for the first time in my life a person didn't look real to me. I saw his aura around him, which glowed. It was as if he was floating above the field. He was my hero and my idol and I always wanted to be like him. Alen Iverson's respect for Jordan shows that he was very honest. In this video you can see Alen Iverson sitting on the bench, looking dreamy. An incredible moment for him because he is going to play against Mike and he is very happy about it and full of emotion. I understand him very well. For many, Michael Jordan is the top of the mountain of the best players of all time in the NBA. Alen Iverson is also a legend and one of the best of the best players. For me, he is a phenomenon as a basketball player. I Love him.
Folks, as long as I've watched B-ball...ain't no better point guard who weighed ONLY a $1.65 yet had, disportionate, yet sneaky height of 6' 0! His fearlessness was a combo of Isaiah Thomas, cat-like moves like Pistol Pete, clutch shooting as Magic/Jordan and let's not forget defense and would take a charge from bigger guys! I DO have his original red/white/blue 76'ers jersey! Love this guy!
no one on either bench reacted to the crossover. nowadays they wuld be lying down on the court, the coach calls a timeout so they can watch t he replay
Micheal Jordan ain't no 🐐 he is a definition of a man who saw an opportunity came then conquered became an overcommer and is still a strong man. 💪 respect to both men
Iverson possibly had the most deadliest crossover ever, right? He hit Jordan with his best move and crossed him, Jordan recovered and was a millimeter away from blocking that shit. To me, Jordan’s recovery is more impressive than the crossover.
@Tony Scott Iverson performed well against Jordan once, and only once. Every following game, Iverson had a very, very low field goal percentage. The difference in abilities behind Jordan and Iverson was clear Since Jordan was 34 in this game, would you care for me to show you footage of Iverson in his 30s? Even after leaving the NBA after mediocre final seasons, he played in other leagues.
as i have lived my life in nz and australia and never seen a nba game other than on tv allan iverson was the most exciting skilful player i have seen hakeem my fav but a i not far behind

Iverson could flat out ball. Would of been a H.O.F player in any era. Would average 40+ a game in today's no defense NBA.
Absolutely. ESPN did a projecton on how much he would average in his prime.. it said he'll average 39ppg! Keep in mind that's without the ref baiting like James Harden
@@mkbzam Even without ESPN's projection common logic would say Iverson would kill the current league.....

you're so right about no defense in NBA today. It's pathetic.
@James Jenkis Are you talking about how they both have the same style of play?
2:24 the fact that they used to call "travel" on people like MJ back then is proof of how low the NBA has fallen today

The referees loved Jordan
I love your vids! Re-living my childhood memories of watching MJ kill the competition and geeking over his shoes. Keep em coming!
Watching Iverson now, I realize you can see how his time playing QB influenced how he played on the court.
Man I really wish he used his scoring threat to enhance his vision. He could of average like 9 assist
6:05
Legendary
after that, it became personal to Mike
That cross over wasn't all that great I do believe MJ crossed him over as well
U took me back wit tis one big homie, great vid!
