ALLEN IVERSON AND JADAKISS A5 COMMERCIAL APPRECIATION!!!!

[blakep267]

In NYC AI > MJ when I was growing up. The whole hood wanted to be like him , dress like him, ball like him , talk like him. We just wore Jordan's but we all idolized AI

Don't explain yourself to these dudes man. From 97 to 03 there was nobody more cared about than AI. I am only speaking for my city. Maybe in yall corn fed plain states MJ was not where I am from

the thing is MJ was never "cool". just like Kobe, they're the best of all time but they aren't really that interesting. I remember when space jam came out, most of the kids I knew were more interested in it for the bugs bunny daffy etc more than Jordan himself. he had better sneakers but like we wanted to be like AI( for better or worse)

we all practiced the crossover and how to dribble better. slashing to the lane. wearing head bands and arm sleeves with no injuries. nobody was practicing their fadeaway

Right. People started getting cornrows again because of Bone and AI. Mike wasn't cool to us

Folks are still wearing sleeves.

Ask KD who he looked up to growing up in this city. YouTube it. Damn sure not Jordan

 

[offset pow clow]

AI deserves his credit, but he is overrated because his attittude prevented him from acconplishing much more. cats defend.him cuz hes.cool and all, but dude had on and off court issues and he never reconciled with it.

Nobody said ai was ever the best in the league, saying he was overrated is disrespectful, dude was 6'0 165 holding his own, he never really had a high ceiling he was just relatable to the avg black kid

Kobe couldnt have taken dat squad ai had 2 the finals

Waiting on an Iverson Biopic or something! Don't know who would star Iverson though!

after all these years, i never heard phil yell micheal until now.

He was trying to let Mike know to be careful on that young boy.

Son, my ___ dribbled a football?

Slander proof.

Not to take away from that, but I've seen football players do this before.

dudes will day Jordan because it's the politically correct thing to say.

They can't say the reason why they gave sleeve tattoos and attack the basket is because of Allen Iverson...

He's too toxic

 

[bostoiah]

Lebron even came out and said he got tatted and wears sleeves and headband because of AI

Uh, yes he was, and still is among a certain demographic. 

As politically incorrect as it may be to say now, MJ was Cosby Show cool.

Don't forget the influence he had while wearing black shoes, shaving his head, then wearing baggy shorts.

MIchigan followed him, it wasn't the other way around.

Iverson was Tupac cool, which is something that many who were trying to get away from stereotypical imagery, rejected.
