A.I. is one of the best players in the league...no doubt!!!  The only problem is that his team isn't strong enough.  He doesn't have the right role players playing with him.  His MVP year was the best 76ers team he was on when they made it to the 2001 NBA Finals.  Unfortunately, he is getting older and he deserves to be on a winning team...even if it's not in Philly.

One player can't win EVERY game -- look at the Sixers and Allen Iverson.

That's funny!! \n\nIt is WAY too early to even have this discussion since free agent and trade time haven't started yet.

A T-Mac for Iverson deal could possibly work and would make sense for both teams- but don't expect it to happen.  McGrady is a tough player and wants to win badly, I'm not saying he'll be the MVP this season or that the Rockets will win the chamionship- but I will say I think T-Mac will bounce back and have a big year for the Rockets- he let a lot of people down last year- including himself- and he will be working hard to make that up this year...

Screw the stats...\n\nIf you look at it plainly...you are getting the same player for the same player.  Its all about the players around them that make up the major differences in the stats.  Neither one of them have very long left in the league I think. Nash longer than Kidd...

On paper, it really looks like Kobe Bryant is the better player because of his accomplishments and natural athletic talent.  But taking everything into consideration, I believe that Allen Iverson is the better player.\n\nIverson is an enigma.  A 6'0'' guard who is fourth all-time in season scoring averages.  He has played though many injuries where others may have faltered.  At 30, he has refined his game (and become more of a point guard) and still continues to be as effective and as productive as he was in his 20's.\n\nHope this helps.

The Laker are not only going to get to the championship they are going to win it.. word through the grapevine is that the Lakers are going to pursue Kevin Garnett and Allen Iverson. If the Lakers get them they will be unstoppable. They would have a the best team ever...

1\nwhen it comes to numbers (scoring and rebounding) chamberlain is king. when it comes to being all-around, oscar robertson is at the top, even averaging a triple double for one season. \nstill, most people including me consider jordan the greatest of them all because he was a combination of talent, skill, desire, success, fortitude and timing. \ntalent and skill-scoring title, mvp trophies, all-star status, defensive player of the year.\ndesire-competitive streak, the willpower to tilt the game outcome to his team's side. takes every game seriously. \nsuccess-three-peat not accomplished by modern greats bird, magic, hakeem. doing it twice just stresses the point. \ntiming-storybook career: jumpshot to win an ncaa title. being beaten by everyone before finally succeeding after a 7 year struggle. \n\n2\ngiven time, some of the new stars today will almost reach the pinnacle of jordan's popularity and success. but IMO, no one will. he was everything at once. kobe will always lack the charisma. iverson will never be a three-peat winner nor become a defensive player of the year. lebron does not have the killer instinct and will YET. sorry, but carmelo is just not on the same league as kobe, james and wade. \n\n3\nyes, he would have won with another set of players. if his sidekick was not pippen, then he would have had another super partner. people will compensates                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 \n\nif he did not have grant, then he had rodman. if he did not have paxson, he had kerr and kukoc. he and whoever his teammates then would learn how to compensate.

allen iverson would be the best because he is a all around player he is good on all subjects like shooting and layups.  Or assists.  But if u like alot of shooting it would be Kobe he makes alot of winning shots but is starting to just help team mates so it would be allen iverson!\n\nALLEN IVERSON*

LMAO, yo this Kobe Bryant impostor really cracks me up, dude you're funny! Anyway, I think people do call Iverson a ball-hog also, I just don't think they hate him as much as they hate Kobe. Kobe is one of those guys that you either love or hate, there is no middle road. I was reading an article that asked for the most hated and the most loved player (just two of many categories) and Kobe was the only player to be in the top 5 of both lol. It really doesn't matter what Kobe does, people will always find a way to hate him simply because they have nothing better to do. The Kobe impostor did have one thing correct though, Kobe is currently the best player in the world!

I would have to say Allen Iverson is better all around.  I know Kobe Bryant had a 81 point game, but a true superstar makes the players around him better.  \n\n\nWhen AI first got into the league he hated playing point guard so they moved him to the shooting guard because he had a shoot first mentality.  Well now that they switched him back to point, he gets more assists and can run the offense more effectively.  When he penetrates to the basket, people collapse on him and he can dish it off to his teamates for the wide open J.\n\nKobe, on the other hand, is going to shoot regardless.  Through a double team, triple team, press, it doesn't matter. He wants the ball in his hands at all times.

you guys dont know your basketball..\nkobe bryant is the best basketball player ever\nthat isnt an opinion\n\nif the question is "who is the best player in the nba?" its kobe bryant without a doubt\n\ni think he overcame more than anyone in this league and loves this sport more than anyone\n\nhe practices far more than a normal human should and i think that shows\n\nstat wise .. "oh hes a ball hogger" haha .. or the fact that he wont get a mvp award \n\nis because of his team\ndont even start with me\n\nkobe bryant overcame jordans accomplishments \n\nkobe is a better player than micheal \nwanna argue? i dare you\n\nkobe is #1\n\nlebron doesnt know a thing about defensive switches and weak offensive help\nhe isnt #1 now he is way too young \nbeing #1 doesnt look upon their stats .. rookies..\n\nwade is going to hurt himself he is skillful in SOME ways but in others he is ignorant and immature \nhe'll get hurt in no time as a.i experienced\nquote me on that\n\noverall\nkobe is #1 as of now\n\ndirk nowitski is getting there\n\n#1 - kobe bryant\n#2 - steve nash\n#3 - dirk nowitski

the biggest goof has to be not landing iverson...although in his early thirties, ai has at least 5 to 7 good years ahead of him and any team that has him will always be competitive...the other mistakes have yet to be proven as catastrophes but to not go after ai when you had the chance was the worst thing..and u are right i would've given up paul pierce for him...he is that good

Yao Ming is the best player in the NBA\nplayers who scores many points did't mean that they are good player, cause do you know how many times they shoot the ball all their teammate always pass the ball to them so they can get high scores but is totally difference for Yao Ming,he did't selfish and pass the ball to other when his teammate got chances to shoot and he still can scores many points

Iverson is a much better player than Kidd. Iverson is the 76ers franchise. He drives the lane all the time, makes the tough shots, he almost never has a horrible night shooting, and he is very resilient. Kidd is a better passer, but his shooting is inconsistent. And if Kidd gets injured, the only part of the Nets game that would suffer is fast break points. In a half court game, I would much rather have Iverson who can drive the lane and either kick it out to Korver or make the tough layup. I dont like Kidd or Iverson because im from Detroit lol, but if I could choose either one to come to Detroit, I'd pick Iverson because of his work ethic.
