My favorite draft class ever! 2003 & 1984 were also dope, but what made 1996 special was like the comment above me mentioned, that it was deep. Players like AI, Steve Nash, Ray Allen, Kobe Bryant dominated more or less the 2000‘s and were fan favorites for many ppl watching the NBA during those times. Apart from them, you still had guys like Peja (making his debut during the lockout season two years later), Antoine Walker, Jermaine O’Neal and the undrafted Big Ben. I‘m pretty sure I missed out another notable player. Another reason why I love the Draft Class of 96 is related to hip hop. Albums like All Eyez on me, One In A Million, Reasonable Doubt, The Score, ATLiens etc.
@@josecarranza7555 yet he lead the league in steals MULTIPLE times , and is shorter then 6 feet tall, and still guarded the opposing teams guards most the time , who is iverson suppose to be legit stopping ? The trolling is to obvious
Love the Celtics !!! .. been watching them since Bird and Ainge played.. used to take my son to the games when we lived in Vermont.. in the 80s.. when you could get into Boston easily !!!
I love hearing and seeing previous NBA players! Vin Baker, Michael Cage, Jerry Stackhouse etc! But WOW.....Allen Iverson and Ray Allen! Allen Iverson my favorite of all time.!
I was 2 years old when this game aired first time watching my take A.I Is Truly One Of The Best Offensive Players Ever Probelm Since Day 1 Superior Athlete
Forgot how good of a team they had, just treated A.I. Too much like a rookie. Coleman and Stack house didn't share. Iverson finally did what a Hoya do and went and got his.
It would be nice to see, but I checked all the rookie games they had on their website. Kobe‘s game wasn’t included. I guess it‘s mainly because he didn’t play much at the early stage of his career. Nonetheless my goat and personal hero 🐐🐍💜💛

Yo I’m glad y’all are streaming games again
@NBA upload some pacers 90's classic
Allen Iverson first NBA game, Ray Allen first NBA game too, true legends!
For real!!
That brings up the question, who was the better player?
I think Ray Allen.
@@josecarranza7555 I think ray was a better team player, but individually I think Ai
@@josecarranza7555 better shooter but hell no
That's actually a tougher question the longer you think about it.
AI was one of the most relentless, fearless and coolest ballers of all time! Bubba Chuck played with heart and hustle! He was surely the Answer! 👌🏼
My All time favorite Basketball player 😻😻😻 Allen Iverson

Me too!!!
Draft class of 96...one of the best. Two playing in this game.
The deepest draft class of all time

@@inexpugnabilis Marbury, Kittles, Marcus Camby, Abdur-Rahim, Ilgauskas, Derek Fisher, and Malik Rose.
@@marquis08 thanks. Especially Starbury was also one of my favorite players back in the day. Same goes with Derek Fisher
Derrick Coleman was still a BEAST 🎉 so underrated these days
Iverson one of the greatest of all time this guy a Legend for real
Lol legend of what?

@vrtxte And zero defense selections, was a bum on defense, bad teammate.

@@macmillysoanti4357 His effort wasn’t there. He was a thug, and had drama every team he played on.
Inspired me to play basketball. Wasn’t the tallest but the mentality and drive I admired. AI is that Guy. God bless him 🙏🏿💜🥷🏿🤞🏿🤺😷
Love the Celtics !!! .. been watching them since Bird and Ainge played.. used to take my son to the games when we lived in Vermont.. in the 80s.. when you could get into Boston easily !!!
Me too bro
I think that Iverson kid is gonna be pretty good. That Ray Allen is one to keep an eye on too.
Ray and Bubba Chuck - first and so important: memorable game these two legendary NBA players! Greatness! Brinck back NBA defense rules before 2006!
I love hearing and seeing previous NBA players! Vin Baker, Michael Cage, Jerry Stackhouse etc!
But WOW.....Allen Iverson and Ray Allen! Allen Iverson my favorite of all time.!
Those NBA jerseys, those shoes, the greatest time to be alive!
Can’t get through watching this without ads every 2 minutes. Ridiculous
He’s been my favorite player since I was 7 and I’m 29 now….. LUKA DONCIC is my new favorite
I’m 31 , him and Kobe been mine since I was 6 and didn’t love anybody on that same level untill curry. Luka in my top 5 current favorites easily
*THE ANSWER!!!* MY FAVORITE PLAYER OF ALL TIME!!!! A.I. my guy!!!
My favorite player of all time and The GOAT in my book. Dgaf about anybody else opinion I said he’s the GOAT to me its my opinion lol
Allen Iverson had the greatest debut in NBA history 30 points 🏀
Wilt is up there too
Brandon Jennings had 50 his first game
Brandon Jennings had 50 his first game

When the game first started the audience looked like a Super Nintendo crowd
Greatest lil man Ever 🐐🔥🔥

Hall Of Famer Starting Shooting Guard Allen Iverson #3
NOT A GAME NOT A GAME...WE TALKING ABOUT PRACTICE...A PRACTICE MAN!!!! THE ANSWER AI #3 🏀🔥🔥😎
I'll see you at 2:00. My favorite player!
He is a real legend
Greatest little man ever
Allen's first step was insane.
Hi love the vids keep it coming !
One of the best to ever do it
Keep this coming!
7:43 6ft A.I. and his first points are off his baseline drive and dunk. Legend.
Class 96. AI, Allen, Kobe....... Draft plenty of 🐐
The ANSWER💯🐐
Old NBA games scoring wasnt easy what happen 👀
Awesome. The question turned into an Answer.
Bad boy right there A.i ..nuff said
This Allen guy looks like he has a future
Quanti ricordi!
Derrick Coleman was Ballin
I miss derrick Coleman, real old school
This was back when they still played defense way better to watch today they just run up and down launch up shots no defense in today's game
My GOAT
Play shaq full first nba game
30 points for A.I. NBA Debut
We need game 5 & 6 of the Cavs 3-1 comeback
I’m the biggest iverson fan
Crazy how both teams had so much potential but neither made it to the playoffs that year
Y’all ain’t hear some one stay “Oh shit!” At 1:20
Derrick Coleman got so many post shots that he missed or got blocked…so inefficient smh
Little did AI know, that he would spend half of his career getting up off the floor.
AI is like Shaq in the way that if he took his practice seriously and unskilled, he would have been one of the best of all time AND gotten ring.
I agree. Two naturally gifted players who were dominant at their positions. He's still of of the best of all time, ring or not....
Can you do wilt chamberlain 100 point game in nba classic game?
🗣️🤫🐐🙏🏽
AI#3 the greatest heart of alltime!

just watched ai and ray battle it out in the big east championship
Let's goooo
Forgot how good of a team they had, just treated A.I. Too much like a rookie. Coleman and Stack house didn't share. Iverson finally did what a Hoya do and went and got his.
Allen Iverson🐐
Love the.celtics
🏀
This was Ray Allen's first NBA game also
Why is that Teddy Pendergrass national anthem cut out tho 😢
💪🏾✅✅✅
Ray Allen’s First Game 😅😂
Started off shaky
Couple air balls . Visibly frustrated .
He ended up with 30!?
Gonna keep watching
This is also Ray Allen’s first game, right?
Yes
The day the "carry" was born.
One of the greatest of all time
I never seen this so I'll see you at 2:00
Back when big men know how to low post
Not seeing the score is pissing me off lol
It's 2:01
🎉
We need Kobe's first NBA game
It would be nice to see, but I checked all the rookie games they had on their website. Kobe‘s game wasn’t included. I guess it‘s mainly because he didn’t play much at the early stage of his career.
Nonetheless my goat and personal hero 🐐🐍💜💛
Probably only had like 5 points lol I mean he did only play 7 mins a game as a rookie
@@joestuehmer7967 Kobe didn’t score in his first NBA game and didn’t play any minutes
the video quality was pretty poor then
2:16 hairline on bro is atrocious
Present 3 hours
NBA should post more classic games
AI
why do they look so stiff compared to no day games?
where's the score ? 🤷♂
111
Ohhh sh!ttttttt
🤣🤣🤣
👍♥️🖤🥰🥰🤍👍👍
I ijł k 😅
IVERSON BESIKTAS
Some of these fouls are bullshit, where a man was barely touched I don't think it should matter.
Unfortunately 2pac died a month before he was able to witness this 96 draft class. Smh
Man these role players were washed
Damn the sixers are horrible!
The ref is the only white guy on the court 😂
Wow, these guys were horrible shooters. 🙄
Are you serious
Overrated thug that didn’t play defense, and wasn’t a team player.
Take his Dck out ur mouth 😂
