Yeah they do, in Philly sports he's a freaking legend and some would put him above Dr J and Wilt as the best Sixer to play.

The symbolism of AI stepping over Lue is so poetic. The Sixers were up against a giant in the Lakers, and after hitting that step back, AI stepped over the only guy on the court shorter than him. He hadn’t just drawn first blood on the giant, he became the giant in that moment. He looked twice the size he really was in that moment.

Kobe and Iverson were cold-blooded Killers going at it every night. That's why they respected each other at the highest level. The difference between them was the help they got. Iverson gets a over-the-hill dikembe mutombo, and a bunch of role players... Kobe gets the most dominant big man and three-point assassin's backing him. It was never going to happen for the 76ers.

AI was one of the best players of all-time. Not saying he's top 10 or anything, which that can be argued. But look at Kobe when he didn't have a team around him after Shaq left.....he took most of the shots. Look at Jordan before Pip and Phil got there, he took most of the shots. AI NEVER had a team around him, so he had to take most of the shots. No one can name one star or superstar that AI played with during his prime that was on his team. And no, Denver wasn't when he was in his prime. It was from 2000-2006. And for everyone that says he was a ball hog, these are his CAREER stats. 26.7 ppg, *6.2 apg* , 3.7 reb, 2.2 stl.

Two Legends... RIP kobe

A.I somehow singlehandedly beat a team that nobody else could. Just needed more help

He has to be one of the most exciting players to watch play the game outside of Jordan. Superstar

I am a huge die hard A.I. fan...this guy is just a scoring machine and a great player. He is just straight up real and plays from his heart. To be honest though...76ers had no chance against the Lakers and no other team had a chance anyways. This was the Shaq and Kobe era.

+White Iverson Mutombo could be in his prime taking steroids, he still wouldn't be able to defend Shaq. While u are knocking Mutombo, just remember that they wouldn't have made to the finals without him.

I literally remember seeing Alen Iverson hooping for the first time at Georgetown...I knew when i seen him in College when he got to the league what he was gonna do...I had the Georgetown A.I jersey with the braids at the gym thinking I was A.I...People don't understand the kinda guts and tuffness u gotta have to play the way he played at his size..he was the size of like a regular guy but had super athletic

The best of the best! Kobe vs Iverson legends of the game. Passion, skill, heart they had it all.

even prime lebron can't handle this 2001 Iverson

Young Cartel 44 points on Jordan and Pippen as a rookie. Lebron ain't locking AI bro

thanks for uploading these finals highlights! great to relive such greatness

When the 76ers took game one I thought for sure the championship was a wrap. Allen so deserved to win a championship considering how he put his heart and soul into every game.

One of best games I've ever watched. I was upset he took out my team (Raptors) but was cheering for him in secret during the series. This game was unreal. AI showed the world his greatness in this game. My favourite player of all time.

That step over is iconic ,just unbelievable

Never seen Kobe AND Shaq schooled like this.

One of the best basketball rivalry...RIP Kobe

We partied all summer!!! I'm so proud to call him MY friend! More humble than you could ever imagine. Kai and Arnie Man too!!!

Holy sh&t!! Iverson's performance was craziness in this game!! Unstoppable! Kobe couldn't do anything against him either, even he played a tough D on him, it wasn't enough😮

AI ripped kobe like 7 times. People forget how good AI was on defense

Didn't rip 7 times WHY U lying 3 times it was them others were through screens. U missed that Kobe stole and blocked him 4 times now 🤔

Iverson, es un fino clásico del baloncesto. Un lujo verle jugar.

Probably the greatest Sixers game I've seen in my life

Iverson was increíble.

I remember as a hs student, when I was getting into basketball at that time, this was the nba finals that really sticks out in my memory. I remember after this game, EVERYONE was talking about iverson. From basketball players to musicians to potheads to nerds to girls and teachers. Everyone knew who AI was. Damn I didn't realize how iconic of a moment this was at the time. But definitely a helluva game from the answer.

Kobe averaged 32 a game in these 2001 playoffs and haters are saying he got caried? Stop it.
