[5th Letter]

Allen Iverson- 31.1 PPG, 4.6 APG, 2.5 SPG
Team record- 56-26

Derrick Rose- 25.0 PPG, 7.7 APG, 1.0 SPG
Team record- 62-20

 

[O.G.]

You mention 2001 to any nba fan and they immediately talk about Iverson.

 

[Chi-Town B]

I'm biased

 

[Revolver Ocelot]

Whatever you want to take into account

 

[Sony Montana]

Lol comparing AI to a weak MVP season by some

I’ll go with AI

 

[Hater Hearst Helmsley]

Well then of course AI

 

[Ibex]

George Lynch, Eric Snow, Arron Mckie had no business in the NBA and Iverson took them bum ass niggas to the finals. AI MVP year easily was the better one.

I feel like there are similarities among them. Both teams and players went into their respective seasons not having a lot of expectations.

That’s cool man I don’t hate it

it was more Rose slander than anything

 

[The Lonious Monk]

A.I. came as close to singlehandedly carrying a team to a championship as any player ever will.

You know Lebron carried the cavs in 2007 and AI won just 1 more game than them right?

AI beat the best postseason team in NBA history up to that point. The Spurs were good but the Cavs had a better punchers chance than the 01 Sixers.

And yet AI won one more game in the finals than Lebron so he wasn’t far and away from the rest of of the other players that carried teams to the finals

cavs lost game 3 by 3 points and game 4 by 1 point

how much closer can you get to being on par with AI?

also AI had another 15ppg+ scorer in 2001

Lebron didn’t

 

[Sony Montana]

Also stop nuthugging AI in the finals when MVP is a regular season award

But LA had Shaq and Kobe averaging 33 and 24 respectively. Spurs had one 20 point scorer.

Why are you comparing finals teams

Homie said AI came as close to carrying anybody to a ring than anybody else will

I said one game made up a difference between Lebron and AI and if you wanna get deeper, one point separated them from doing the same thing
