The 90's was tougher what do you mean? There are 150 European players in the association today. You could never have that many European players in the 90's. European players couldn't touch American players in the 90's. Olympics, world games etc. we would blow European teams all the way out of the gym. Today, European players and teams can hang with American players and teams. In 2004 Olympics USA won bronze, that means 3rd place and in 2006 world games Argentina beat our USA team. So yes, the 90's were tougher and better. Sabonis, Divac, Schrempf, Petrovic (RIP) were the only Euros to do well and they ranged from the 80's til 90's. That's a whole decade with only 4 successful Europeans. In 15 years the ASSOCIATION gonna be 75% European players if we don't knock it off. I played professionally in Europe for 11 years. From 2004-2015. We knew this was coming!! They constantly kept getting better and the NBA kept drafting younger and younger offensive minded players. Now you have an NBA where you can buy tickets for $5 and nobody wants to even watch it anymore.

The crossover Goat that bought culture to the game❤❤❤

It was his first step speed that made that crossover dangerous

The Answer...miss him!!!..Allen Iverson🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🔥🔥🔥

He had my whole generation watching videos to teach ourselves that crossover. Once you mastered it, it was murder.

The greats are often driven by a desire to hide/overcome embarrassing fundamental weaknesses: too short, can't put on muscle, weight struggles, can't shoot, can't go left, can't dunk, too short, too slow, can't finish left, can't dribble (well), can't play D, no court vision, can't understand complex plays, etc. AI never FINISHED with his left hand. He could certainly dribble very well with his left hand. In fact, for right-hand dominant players (like myself), it's way easier to cross right-to-left. The fact that he's crossing left-to-right means he can dribble well with his left, but just wants to always finish with the right.

A.fckn I. Baddest crossover. Crossover king.

Guarding Iverson was like chasing a quick butterfly. You are constantly misdirected 😮!

It’s crazy cause I imitated my crossover after his and til this day that crossover is unguardable especially under the whistle

Archie Clark king of cross over

That first step is everything

I love how he says on a relaxed voice " I did him Bad". That's a great and humble man. One of the greatest basketball players that electrified fans and arenas in every nba city. Love him hate him but adjusts respect him, his game, and his heart.

Back then in my younger years I thought that was the coldest crossover ever but now as an mature adult that crossover was illegal as heck😂😂😂

One of many reason why Kyrie is the goat of cross overs and handles.

I saw him in Atlanta at Morehouse, after the game he stayed and greeted everyone that stayed. Salute 🫡

His had it to where he didn’t left because he only needed a split second super athletic

Bro was almost overqualified. 😂

“He fell got back up and fell again” 😂

100% of the time he went right BUT yet NOBODY could stop it!!!

"...I did him bad..." lmao! McDaniels laughed too!😅😅

“ I did him bad “ is insane🤣
